New Decorated 6497-2 movement

[cheea]

I order and received 2 of these new movements today. So some background. I have a few gen Pams one being the PAM 183 Black Seal which has this movements. I made a visual comparsion with a lope and this movement is very close to the gen, BUT
There is always a BUT..... the claim that the script "OFFICINE PANERAI" is engraved is not true. On one of the movements I received, the top part of the "N" is missing. In the final analysis, this is a good looking movement much better then what has been avilable but it has its flaws.

So beware of what you buying.

The movement on the 177M is different from the one we talking about .
New 177M is low beat , and the new one is high beat .
