PAM1116 [SBF]
- Thread starter KOT1917
- Start date
So far, I see no reason to believe that SBF did it right. As you rightly noted, there are not so many photos of GEN, due to the relative rarity and high cost of this model, however, everything that I saw outside of the renders has the color of the disk itself, a little more "dirty" and less saturated, which, however, so far cannot serve as a basis for a final opinion.Thanks for the pictures @KOT1917 . But the more pictures I see, the more sceptical I am that SBF has really found the colours (dial and hands).
A couple of photos of gen, again, in specific lighting, but just as an example, for a little more breadth of perception:

Not good 
Panerai produces enough watches with closed casebacks. Why use a P9000 Clone in these ones?
What happened to the P9010 Clones VSF once said they were working on?
On the other side: the overall quality should be at least on par with the gens - if you don't count in the materials here.
I hope SBF doesn't follow Panerai f*ing things up constantly

The case is 44mm with a thickness of 13.4mm thick on Gen. The rep is 15,6 thickness in the video.

Moreover now we must add weight, because platinum is even heavier than gold, gen must be very heavy.... And the color of platinum is really beautiful in real life.

Actually, TTF has made this model before, I mentioned it in the first post of this thread, and @JayBee0815 made a review.

In the Puretime photo, it is interesting to note that they have replaced the quick-change strap system with screw bars, which is correct, but they have removed the pattern from the caseback crystal.
on the Intime website, the title of pam 1116 indicates the VSF factory (https://www.intime06.co/panerai/921...on-brown-leather-strap-p9010-super-clone.html)
Probably the name VSF sells better ;-)
So far we have not seen any SBF PAM from the members of the forum, much less a detailed comparison with older models in a similar configuration, which would help to identify the differences, if any. But I have yet to see any evidence of a difference between PRE and POST raid VSF PAM.
If this brand survives, we will see if there is any "simplification" compared to the old VSF, but for now, I can only say that this is a P.9000 clone that no one except VSF has used, as well as a case, a dial and crown/CG is not the same as cheap KING/V7/XC or TTF.
I won’t be surprised if there are differences from the old models, but if so, then at least this will be primarily due to new batches of ordered parts from contractors, as many parts change over time, both worse and better, and more often neutral side.
I do not have enough information to draw conclusions, but I would not beware of SBF, due to the risks of not getting the level of quality that we are used to seeing for VSF.

Very Nice Sir , thanks for the pictures.
The Watch and dial color looks good, maybe a bit too thick.
Can you confirm the thickness.
what is your own opinion of the Watch?

Can you confirm the thickness, andAs promised...
what is your own opinion of the Watch?
I don't have the watch in my hands anymore as i bought it for a friend so i won't have the precise thickness but i can say that it's more than 15mm , i have an electronic digital caliper but out if battery...
My opinion of this watch ?? Well i'm far from an expert so i'll just say that it's good enough for me.
