I have no idea. Personally, I don't think those reps are worth the prices that are being charged.

Don't get me wrong, they are definitely the best 111 reps out there, but they are not without flaws, even on the dial. At $1000, I can't fathom paying that much for an A6497 powered rep.

That's my $.02

How many genuine parts are on this?

That's just the thing... For me there is a very fine line between some of these so-called super modders that charge big money for a rep and a scammer.

no gen parts on the LH that i am aware

too many tells on the little hero reps to warrant a price tag more than DSN

we've seen like 5 get posted on paneristi and other places and always get called out right away

LUMINOR PANERAI too bold on front, L SWISS MADE L too big, finishing on backside not good enuf, doesn't solve crownguard and case issues.

Stick with DSN for out of the box accuracy, otherwise DIY...

EXACTLY MY WORDS...... THE WATCH LOOKS GOOD, BUT $ 550 - 600 SHOULD BE ENOUGH.

CONSIDER A PANERAI BUILT FROM VACUUM - THATS VERY NICE AND ALL THE MODS.....MY DVSN IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.....

Yep, right on, Zedd.

Nice to see you over at WatchUSeek, too. I'm the Panerai forum mod over there (shhhhhh, don't tell anyone I collect reps, too :wink: ). I don't allow rep talk over there though. Gotta keep the gen and the rep hobbies completely separate.

Nice pick up on the Nav.B chrono, BTW. I flipped mine to fund the gen 114E, but I'll re-buy one again soon, I'm certain. It's a heckuva watch.
