Panerai 127 Fiddy

[zelenicaj]

Does anyone know where I could get a high class PAM 127 Fiddy rep?

I have read the PAM guide, so I know the latest reps are basically some sort of hybrids.

And another question. Is the noob version of 127 Fiddy the best 127 rep out there?


Ty and best regards

Noob verison isnt made anymore, The last best version was KW/V6f

Recently they have some issues with the movement being switched to inferior parts.

ZF also comparable quality to KW, minor differences.

FYI I have early batch KW/V6f 127 and the quality is very very nice.

I recently bought a KW/V6f rep. I think TD's should be able to get you one. The movement looks like the KW one.

I had to go with a TD from another site because I wanted an ASSOS strap on mine. The manufacture and quality indicates it's not genuine but I didn't need to pay any difference switching it out from the strap it usually comes with so I'm satisfied. Might change it when/if it dies.

I've had the watch since Friday and worn it continuously. It seems to keep good time and can last a day before needing to be wound.

Can you please tell me, what model of Fiddy this is? I have found a few models of KW: E, OOR, ELE, ELE1, ELE2.... And if it is allowed can you please tell me which trusted dealer did you buy it from.

It'll be this one: http://www.intime.co/panerai/2146-p...rown-leather-strap-a6497-with-y-incabloc.html

Same except for the strap.

The TD I ordered from leaves it up to you to figure out whether it's a good watch or not and the pics aren't particularly high rez. The first watch I noticed a 1 pixel big dot on the dial under the first A in PANERAI and so that got rejected. The second watch had a small part of the rubber seal ring left out of the back plate when it was screwed in.

Also I didn't get a time graph with the watch despite repeated requests and assurance that a time graph would be provided, so I didn't even know if it would function prior to shipping. I guess I should have asked for these things prior to okaying it.

I can only guess they must do some QC but I have no visibility of it really.

Having said that it's a nice damn watch - I'd just order next time from someone who would provide these things as part of the service.

Btw, it's pretty much my first order along with a Franck Muller chrono from a 2nd TD. Ironically all the QC things I asked for were provided with the FM but the PAM is still a better watch, down more to the quality of manufacture than any QC issues.

YES, you are lucky, this is a KW movement, and ,besides, the sunburst effect is really good with a "pattern" and CURVED beams, just like gen

The PAM127 uses an A6497 movement that should have at least 48 hours power reserve. It can easily last 2 days before needing a rewind.

I have been in contact with Ryan from Intime. Fast replay and exact answers. He has 127 in stock. Both case and movement is supposed to be KW. I would like to order the watch, but I fear i wouldn't recognise in the QC pictures if the movement isn't KW's. I know posting QC pictures isn't allowed so could someone tell me what to do in that case? If I buy 127 i really want it to be all KW.

I think that Davidsen's model is a good alternative as well. I personally might take that route. I just can't support maker who change movement to inferior one without saying anything and selling them at the same price!

You're right - I left it a couple days and still keeping good time. Rewound it now - 86 twists.

You can post your QC pics to https://forum.replica-watch.info/vb...ment-***-QCpics-allowed-***?highlight=pam+127 and ask for an answer on the movement. The differences aren't too hard to spot.

OK
This is the way

Anyway it is easy to tell the KW movement and SF
Just see the position of PANERAI PANERAI engravings around the OFFICINE PANERAI - FIRENZE golden inscriptions

KW movement is like showed in post #5. SF is completely different

You are right regarding the flaw from KW-V6Fac and I don't like it either, but we are always talking about reps where there are not fixed rules. They are not a Mercedes, Volvo, Peugeot or a gen PANERAI. Of course prices are accordingly

Anyway the Davidsen PAM 127 will have for sure a SF type movement, with wrong PANERAI PANERAI engravings position, completely wrong and inaccurate Balance Cock, LOW beat movement and unknown origin of the case (maybe old Noob, but not assured by David)
