The pam 127, Panerai reference 127 "Fiddy" has a clear caseback manual wind movement, the OP XI ...based on the Unitas 6497. You would never see someone try to put an automatic movement in a Gen 127, it would destroy the value and just be really, really wrong thing to do. The finish on the OP XI fiddy is beautiful.

If you want an automatic panerai, there are many many choices. Go for something proper...good luck

Do you own a gen fiddy?!
If you do please post some wristshots.

I also like a rare double barrel that i notice recently.
I can't say that i would change the gen with it but i think that it is a dream movent for a rep.

Well there’s no easy solution to this.
You would have to change the dial, hands, stem, movement and fabricate a custom movement holder.
Don’t recommend it at all.
