Unfortunately you are not going to find a good replica of this watch from any of our dealers. If you are willing to settle for a sub par movement, send and email to any of our TD's with a picture and see if they can source it for you. What i can tell you know is that you are looking for a watch with GMT and PR at 5 and you are not going to get anything worthwhile movement wise - there is no good movement that will provide both of these functions in the factories repertoire.

Hope that helps you out a bit

I have a lot to learn, thanks for the reply. I wasnt too concerned with the extra features which I wouldnt use, more so the look, but a quality rep. Time to read the forums more!

Ok so if you are interested in the look, my advice would be to check out the PAM090 (Newest Model with Faux PR)

Take a look at this:

Panerai_Panerai_Luminor_Power_Reserve_PAM_090.jpg



You can get something along these lines (PAM 090) with working PR - less accurate model. Or an updated model with Faux PR (A7750 movement). The latter one is pretty nice looking and fairly accurate (Taking into account the faux power reserve)

I finally got my Panerai GMT skeleton in the mail yesterday and already love it. And I do have a PAM111 which is my baby. I'm looking into straps now for that :) Until I have some more cash coming in I will probably focus on PAM straps for a while. Id really like to get the Regatta and also the Radiomir California model. I forgot the model # on that but like the art deco look to it. This really is a fun hobby and I think Ive barely touched the surface after reading some more here!

@Ruski91; is the Regatta above still the best replica around or has something even closer in appearance to the real 00526 pop up? also, are you able to deliver to within EU without customs interfering?

I didn't know Ruski was a TD. :lol: Nothing with a Regatta title is going to be accurate as there is no such replicated movement. There was some talk but it never materialized.
