Hey guys,

I have a question regarding the PAM388 V2 VSF. I bought it form intime and there under movement it says:

Movement: Updated Custom designed Asian automatic movement to match the genuine Panerai P.9000 movement at 28800vph, same balance wheel position as the genuine P.9000 movement.(The independently adjustable hour hand which allows you to turn it clockwise or anti-clockwise to adjust hours and date easily, same adjusting as the genuine movement.)

Does anybody know what base movement the watch has? Is it a A7750 or a Seagull ST2555 or any other movement? I am asking because I still have some ETA 2836-2 small second and a Sellita sw220 small second in my cupboard and was asking myself if any of these movements are compatible with the dial, the hands and the date ring of the PAM388 movement.

Thank you all.

I wonder what is your goal? Use p.9000 in another watch project? I do not know the diameters of the footprints for the hands p.9000 clone, but it is possible that it coincides with some known movt. Perhaps someone measured them? But p.9000 itself is independent. I've heard that some parts of it are interchangeable, like the stem, but most are unique.

No, the opposite. I wonder what movement I can exchange the rep movement with in case the rep runs inaccurate. The caseback and that I can see a customized p9000 clone through the glas is not important to me. For me it's important that the movement is accurate and long lasting.

So if I get @n1co59000 right, it's a A7750 with which the watch was sent to me. So in case I will exchange the movement, I have to use a modded 7750. Then the dial, the hands, and the date ring will fit. Correct?

In my experience they're incredibly accurate and reliable. The last handful I bought new came from the TD with
