chubbchubb Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 To me a Super-Rep is one that delivers an out-of-the box very close replication of the real deal, while at the same time providing good quality as a watch. I would not include Frankens in this - to me, they are in a league of their own. Some of my watches in that category... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbh Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I've heard this one's pretty good. I was choosing between this and the Ebel. Super Rep? I don't know but I sure like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony7777 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Thanks for all of the info! Even as a newcomer, Im starting to realize that only a small number of watches qualify for Super Rep consideration. As rabid as RWG members are about Panerais (and I include myself among them), its surprising to see that not one was posted (not even from Davidsen!) Im thinking that part of the issue is that Pam enthusiasts are so detail oriented that even the smallest flaws will cause a rep to be pilloried. Ideas???

Im thinking that part of the issue is that Pam enthusiasts are so detail oriented that even the smallest flaws will cause a rep to be pilloried. Ideas??? You're right Tony. As we define a Super-Rep, it is one that needs little to no modification to be very close to perfect. There are no Panerai reps that fall into that category. Especially DSN's.

Tony7777 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hmm I wonder why. While PAMs are beautiful, they are minimally designed watches. (Well the faces, maybe not so much the movement). Any particular reason why? My kingdom for a perfect pam!!! r/anthony You're right Tony. As we define a Super-Rep, it is one that needs little to no modification to be very close to perfect.
