Hi guys need some advice.
So 2 months back i ordered a Noob v4 pam 111 from a TD. Ive done countless research about what to look out for and i know the latest v4 has the updated Y Incabloc and thin engraved "Officine Panerai" On the movement. I owned it before and i know how it looked like until a friend of mine liked my PAM and i gave it to him as a gift.
So is started missing it and ordered another one from the same TD today. Finally received the QC and i notice the officine panerai engraving is rather thick. Its not fine and thin like the one that i used to own.
So i compared my old QC and my current one, huge difference.
Am i missing something here? Im not a Panerai expert so i dont know if its normal for a v4. Last i checked, some dealers are selling the "v4" but its in fact a old v4 case with just the modified incabloc.
Am i getting the real and latest v4 here ?
I did some research before about the serial number. Noob factory serials are always N then i saw someone mentioned that P serial is the latest one from noob. The QC i got is P serial too.
Kindly have a look.
This is my NEW QC picture.
Heres my OLD QC picture , the previous watch that i had before i gave it away to a good friend of mine.
Notice the difference in the engraving?
I dont doubt the ethnicity of my TD. I have ordered many watch from him for the past 3 years.
Im just trying to clarify. If any PAM rep expert say its normal then i will still proceed with it. I know its a rep and there will always be flaws. Honestly i can live with that flaw but i just want to know if im getting what i paid for.
