Hey everyone! I'm hoping to buy my first gen panerai and I want to make sure everything checks out before I pull the trigger on this Panerai 380.

Let me know your thoughts!

I would like to know how much too, also where is it for sale to get a better idea of legitimacy. For example if it's Back page or Craigslist (in US) I would be extremely hesitant. If it's too good to be true it's usually is (but not always)
There was a Gen 1995 Rolex Submariner for sale on this site 2 months ago that was $4,500 CAD when the value was $6,000 USD trade in. $7,500 retail. The guy selling had great Reputation and watch was GEN. Was sold in a day.

I would concur with the gen diagnosis -- but why spend $3k on this model when the Rep is so darn close? I don't think it's worth buying any gen PAM with the 6497 movement ...

According to the sticker in the tags card, the watch was sold by a well established Portuguese dealer (http://www.anselmo1910.com/en/).

The numbers are matching (e.g., movement number and respective card) and it's a N-series (2011) sold in early 2012.

All this adds up to a gen diagnosis.
