chrgod Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 I am usually not much into Panerais, but the "8 Days" with its horizontal power indicator has caught my eyes for some time. Looks as it is finally a decent replica of it.. Not much info yet. Asian movement. I like the GMT-function and date.. Is it a day/night indicator on the seconds subdial? What does the experts say? http://www.joshwatch.com/0141-p-5206.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anton Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 It looks interesting...I, too am no expert, but the dial font is totally wrong in this version. But I guess it's a given in this fantasy watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeypro Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 how hard would it be to put the correct date con it. black with the light number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSoxMan Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 how hard would it be to put the correct date con it. black with the light number I could live with it if date wheel was black (w/ white numbers) like the gen; even if the font was a little off... The white sort of kills it for me... the type of thing that screams rep a mile away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sander Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 King has it for 175,- I forgot to mention, but also the cannon pin is too short. Better wait for a better version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Thanks for the feedback. Think I will pass this one, or at least wait until a V2 comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakakan92 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) This is the GEN and the josh replica is not look good for me too. It have a cheaper design. I don't understand why the designers don't copy exactly the right dial, it's not difficult to have a black wheel date and the right font numbers and text. wait for a better REP ...

anton Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 This isn't even popular as a GEN as is depreciates in value like the rest of 'em... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadog13 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Anybody knows the purpose of the white indicator on the seconds subdial? anybody know the purpose to offer this ugly rep to us?! this can be easilly sold in the Canal street and on the GZ watch market...but offering it here to PAM gurus, that's an insult!

jetzeus Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 This isn't even popular as a GEN as is depreciates in value like the rest of 'em... Ouch, anton...this is my grail watch! I think this is the sexiest watch on the planet! Not sure if you have ever seen, held or worn the gen in person, but it is incredible. The rep folks will NEVER get this one perfect...the movement is in house, hand-wind and completely different from what is pictured for sale. This one has a long way to go but I am excited that they are trying! Jet PS...MOST watches, cars...luxury items in general, depreciate...mighty quickly, actually. If I had the coin, I'd buy the gen to this in a heartbeat and never regret it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rolli Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 when the maker have too much time to produce these ugly pams, then better they invest their time in upgrading their current acceptable pams. rolli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
