what kind of movement is in the watch?Yes @R33xxo I have the same watch as yours and my power reserve indicator works also. I bought mine on originally on a stainless bracelet from Egypt around ten years ago and it was one of my very first reps. I know it's not a super 1:1 rep but I've grown quite fond of it as it reminds me of starting out on this hobby.
I do hope you can see past it's flaws just as I have, and just enjoy it as a watch, and a reminder of your journey - hopefully one of many as you gain more knowledge on reps and add more to your collection.
I have no need for five Pam's plus all the other gens and reps that I wear in rotation, but this hobby is never about being practical!

The rotor looks more authentic Panerai than mine but I think the movement is the same seagull as mine.

Here's mine
I had a new movement fitted a few years back and the rota wasn't decorated so the original was stuck over the top and I later noticed he hadn't put the original date wheel on, hence mine is black on white - again another tell but I don't walk into AD's pretending anything with it.
My other Pam's are more gen like and wouldn't look out of place in an AD but it's not really about that, it's a watch I probably paid too much for but I liked it at the time and my knowledge of reps wasn't what it is now.
I've probably spent ten times over it with straps which will be your next rabbit hole!
Panerai's and many spare straps are pretty much a given!

I didn't know anything about such a feature of that movement
Maybe @kilowattore or @KOT1917 have something to say about this

It's a Seagull ST25 variant.
I have a ST2525 in a Parnis that runs better and more accurate than 80% of the multiple NH35 that i own. Power reserve indicator is very accurate, and reserve is replenished 3x faster than in NH35 by comparisson.

It seems you are right
I have been reading about Seagull movements and ST2530 has : Small seconds at 9:00, date at 3:00, power reserve indicator at 5:00

I don't think so. This is seagull ST2530
Please bear in mind that the movement is fully decorated !!!
And the bridge you can see is just a decoration hiding the real bridge

Here you are the decorated ST2530 with the real bridge (marked orange) hidden under the decoration.
