Pugwash Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Is this a new asian GMT movement that works properly? If so, I'll have it in a Rolex, please. Red/Black and ... oh, damn, second-hand in the wrong place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 It looks like an PAM161 but with wrong colour dial. It is good though they have found how to make a nice blue dial and they can use it in other models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadog13 Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 I always prefer black or white dials on a PAM...maybe it is just because i've never had in my hands a blue dial PAM... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swdivad Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 That's really nice! I prefer the seconds at 9 over the center seconds. How much is this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre V Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 First glance it looks like a PAM 89 (except that it is in a titanium casing). A PAM 88 will have the same dial except with the second hands in white (same as PAM 161) - differences being in bracelet. In short, if the dial is black and the casing is replaced with a titanium, it'll definately pass off as a PAM 89 rep...a very nice rep indeed!

Watchmeister Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Actually its a one-of-a-kind protoype. It is beautiful though. I really like the look of the hand stack and center pinion (not the typical cheap Asian movement look) and the dial color. Neil- Very cool piece.

V Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Yeap.. sorry Neil.. I thought the 089 was black faced.. It is definately a 089 then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 89 has anthracite dial (grey) and black sub-dial as your picture shows. Still love it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 I really don't care....the dial on this is just stunning......the way it catches the light.....and changes......just beautiful......! If the Panerai experts couldn't initially figure out what model it was, but assumed it was a real model, then the Paneristi that could call it out would be equally stumped. Good enough for me. The GMT Movement does sound interesting if it clicks across. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmlora Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 It's a pam089 I believe http://www.montresinternational.com/The-Pa...ery-No_4092.htm Nop!, because the dial is Anthracite, black sub-seconds see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rek001 Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 That's a very beautiful watch, Neil. The dial color is so much richer and more interesting than the matte black of the usual Pams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehtolcad Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 whatever model number it is, it looks damn fine to me. any chance of seeing her backside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Am I the only PAM nuts here? It is a PAM 228, a stunning piece and very well repped (with exception for the writings: 'FIRENZE' missing and 'Automatic' added). Congrats, TTK! Do you plan to sell it/them? (btw, I found it in my PAM table v2.1, posted here). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravishingrick Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 A few minor flaws or not... This pam is drop dead gorgeous... Major props to the makers, I never though they would pull a acurate small second PAM gmt off.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
