First radiomir rep

[angiracca]

Hi, I'm new in this world and i want to buy a Radi rep. I like vintage models for the history linked to these models. my preferred is 3646 radiomir. I try a good watch not only a beatifull watch. For me the watch must be superlumed and swimmable and with a good movement like Seagull6497. where can I find this watch?Thanks! Mario

Vintage Panerai are normally out of the scope for the factories, which focus on the modern Panerai to replicate. You can try and ask the TDs for availability but either they will not find any or may find something but is not of good quality. You would have to go the custom built route. For those custom builds you can find some for sale in the M2M (Member to Member) sales section. Or alternatively you can go to forums like Homageforum which are more into the vintage PAMs and have some for sale (although many members there are members also here so typically many of the watches for sale there you can find here). Good luck!

Second to HF. Better to learn how to build one. It's a fun journey.
3646 is not a difficult watch to build. I think a budget one with full river parts is your best bet.
But you may not be able to swim with it.

Vintage Pams are a different beast to the modern reps. I would check out HF, or Davidsen to get started. Nightwatch, River, and Athaya both have case sets that are close to plug-n-play for a decent vintage set up.
