Stumbled upon this by sheer chance yesterday on Aliexpress looking for something completely different.
Watch Link
Since River seems to have dissappeared it may be of interest to some people looking for a Bronze Mille Metri. I don't pretend to be an expert, to my eye the bezel isn't quite right and has a lum pip (please someone correct me if I'm wrong), but unlike any of the other copies/homages I've seen it looks to have the correct design of lugs to screw down onto a fabric strap. Couple of dial options including one which looks correct to the prototype.
I'm very much on the fence on ordering one just to have it....but interested in what some more knowledgeable Panerai people think.
Some decent photos of the original bronze prototype
