i understand the difference between the two hands aesthetically.. but for eg. if i were to buy a 112M replica, how do i know if the genuine has pre-v or modern hands?

Panerai catalogue;) you can sign up for free and they send it annualy.
Surf on the internet, paneristi.com, viapaneristi.com, chrono24.com and watch the pics on genuine watches. You will learn.

Ask specifically here, the gurus will know. They might answer as well:D

It may be both, but if you can find a gen 112M pic with the same hands as the 112M rep, then that should be sufficient.

N-series (2011) come with Pre-V type hands but previous series came with Modern hands
Curiously O-series (2012) come with Modern hands.

Please see we are talking about Pre-V TYPE, because modern watches come with the shape and lume width of Pre-V hands but they are no REAL Pre-V hands in their structure (just the external shape). The only watches fitting Pre-V hands are the Pre-V watches.
