Are the best PAMs 318 and 288? (Out of box)

[ratpatrolteam01]

are the best Panerai reps 318 and 288s? (im excluding 005 because gen has clearcase back which reveals the movement, and 21.6k bph movement while rep has 18k) or is the new 177 better? or maybe there is a better model (models?) i haven't mentioned...

thank you very much guys

The gen 005 does not have a clear case back, The 117 does....

Thinking you should use the search feature or google a little more before posting.

No offense, just sayin...

oh shit... sorry ok my bad.
well though, is my statement about 318 and 288 (potentially 177) valid or not?

I dont know exactly as i focus on what i like but i believe the 318 and 177 are on the "super rep" list. The 288 isnt as far as i know, i dont dig pams with complications so i could be wrong.
I know the 117M is ment to be the best to date. There are a whole group of new pams that are ment to be coming out of the "Hubolt factory" That said there are a few very good ones coming from other places, like the 005 and 111j.
If your just getting on board now your lucky, guys were modding and spening big to make these more gen a few months ago.

Just scroll through this section or use the search feature and you'll find what your looking for.

Good luck
