Luminor Marina

[Roeod4]

I plan to get all the Luminor Marina and Marina Militare models that are made. I am having trouble finding a couple of them though.

I can find:
PAM 001
PAM 005
PAM 036 (Marina Militare)
PAM 111 (Already have it)
PAM 118 (Marina Militare)
PAM 172
PAM 177
PAM 195

What I cannot find are PAM 113H or PAM 082 (Marina Militare)

Has anyone seen these before? They don't appear to be offered by anyone.

I have seen the 082... maybe the genuine.

 

[pugwash]

What I cannot find are PAM 113H or PAM 082 (Marina Militare)

Have you got the Luminous Panties dial?

 

[Roeod4]

Ummmm, no. I don't think model 666 is on my list.

 

[pancrazy]

What I cannot find are PAM 113H or PAM 082 (Marina Militare)

Have you got the Luminous Panties dial?

And who would be wearing those Panties Pug and what's her cell phone number lol

 

[bigdoggy]

Andrew has the 113H with both the Chinese &
Swiss movements.

You also have twice as more models to list! If you are going to get all LUMINOR MARINAS ... as well you are missing some MMs to boot

BTW PAM118 is not a MARINA MILITARE, that is a fantasy rep made up from 036 dials ... the 118 is a Brown Tobacco Dial with LUMINOR MARINA on it, not MM ..

The PAM082 has NEVER been repp'd due to the engraved TITANIUM case back and as well it's a unique blue dial. (there was at one point some fantasy blue dialed MMs that were crap)

Post Vintage MM start with the 5128-202a MM then the PAM036, PAM082 and not another until PAM217 the Destro 47mm. Prior to that all MM are VINTAGE models of 6152 and 3646 and there are quite a few variations.

Even if you go Post-Vendome, you have a lot more models to suss, even when limiting it to 44mm

PAM 001
PAM 003
PAM 004
PAM 040
PAM 061
PAM 111
PAM 113
PAM 118
PAM 177

PAM 022
PAM 026
PAM 056
PAM 115
PAM 117

PAM 036
PAM 082

And you can't leave out the 5218-202a which is by far the COOLEST Marina Militare ever made.

Well damn! :shock:
I knew I had missed a few, but not that many.

I was actually going to go look all that up today, so you saved me some research, thanks.

Ok, so I guess I won't actually set my sights on ALL the MM and LM models. Some of them don't really interest me anyway and I see no real point in getting them.

After looking at them I don't want or need any of the destro models right now. I may get one way down the line, but not something that interests me now.

So the 022, 056, 115, 117 are out.

I don't care to get the exact same watch, but different case back, since they wear the same on the wrist.

So the 001, 003 are out.

I also look at the 036, 061 and 118 and they all look the exact same to me. The only variation being the LM or MM on the dial. The 061 probably has a closed back. Correct me if I am wrong, but if this is the case there is only need for one.

So the 036 and 061 are out.

At the same time the 040 and the 177 look the same too. Is there a difference I do not see? If they are the same I will take out the 040 and get the 177H with sandwich dial.

So the 040 is out.

So I end up with only a few that I actually plan on getting. Unless of course I am mistaken about the differences of any of the previous models.

So my list becomes:

004

005

082 (which I may never find)

111 (Which I already have)

113 (Which I ordered last night from Joshua)

118

172 (not really an LM or MM, but I really like it)

177

195

I have not seen the 5218-202a, that I know of.

Andrew has the 113H with both the Chinese &
Swiss movements.

The one that Andrew showed on his site was the 113G. I did send both him and Joshua PMs to see if they could get it or arrange it. Joshua replied that he could and I ordered. Andrew did get in touch with me a little later and said he could, but I had already ordered from Joshua.

ohhhh, i like this watch too, can someone post a link to andrews watches, and does it come in a ss braclet?

Andrew has the 113H with both the Chinese &
Swiss movements.

 

[sexybeast]

nevermind, i read that andrew and trusty are one in the same

 

[bigbadbrad]

Ummmm, no. I don't think model 666 is on my list.

-

No, not the PAM "Diablo", the "Luminous Panties" Marina is the extremely rare, Pre-V 69/er

 

[moggio]

I want to know and I cant find it..if anyone have a picture of the movement or the caseback of the 036...this is pretty nice watch and I like it ...do the reps almost the same with the gen ??

I also look at the 036, 061 and 118 and they all look the exact same to me. The only variation being the LM or MM on the dial. The 061 probably has a closed back. Correct me if I am wrong, but if this is the case there is only need for one.

The PAM036 is the only MM of the three, it was the first SPECIAL EDITION released in 1997, the others are hard to find accurate as reps, they always tend to have the wrong dial, or case It seems anytime there is a Tobacco dialed PANERAI model the rep factories dump an 036 dial into the case instead of bothering to make whatever real dial is out there ... and I don't think you'll ever find the PAM 082 - at best they were sold as blue dialed 036s for reps.

I found the 118 through Joshua, but have not ordered it yet.

I know the 082 is probably a lost cause, but I can always dream.
