gen or fake PANERAI 177 on the bay ??

It's pretty tough to tell based on the pictures but I would say it's a fake. Movement on gen has different "shine", I am very sure of it. And the crystal, so much reflections on it. Crown doesn't look right too.
definitely fake.... low bars on the A's... L SWISS MADE L is too close to the 6.... etc....
even looks like it's the infamous H0117 serial number... wouldn't it suck if you owned the gen H0117???
It's definitely out of a series of 4 digits (1000?).... and it should be out of 800

LoS has easier tell. How do you know the serial? It's pretty small on the pic.i am guessing it's the 117 serial... it looks like the same shape...
i look at too many watches....

i also think the lever pin is a giveaway.....so is the fat engraving on the mvmnt ( Officine Panerai )
so ...its clearly busted: FAKE

Yup I agree
I have the same rep too!
the OP text on the movt is obscured - unlike the gen
running secs hand appears to stop slightly short of the marker, instead
of going all the way
and the usual tells; C pin too sunken, CG pin too proud.
check out these pics of the gen
