Panerai 197 will this be ever repped.

Gold PAMs are not great sellers.
This one as a 8 days movement (no good replica for that) and a very strange hobnail dial.
It's very unlikely it will ever be repped.

Just to add that you alternatives:

PAM642: Radiomir with hobnail dial

You can even mix & match the parts and do your fantasy gold Radiomir with a hobnail base dial.

How is the 231 tbh I don't know much about the pam . Do you suggest some modds to take it to the next level or it's good stock.
Thanks mate.

Your best reference is [MENTION=35350]ALE7575[/MENTION] guide (one of the stickies).
Here is what he writes about the PAM 231 rep.
January 2014
H maker releases a rep PAM 231 J-series, with no perfect but very improved case Rose gold coated by DLC-like process (more resistant than conventional process), caseback accurate enough (no perfect either), with wrong fonts of PANERAI inscriptions and PANER_AI issue as usually.
Anyway the most visible flaw is the hour hand clearly wider and longer than gen and much wider than minute hand, whereas gen has both hands with the same width andhour hand doesn’t reach the markers. Most likely maker is using the hands of aPAM 232 which is a mistake.This is a noticeable flaw and, moreover, on dial.
This replica is a good and beautiful watch nicely manufactured, but as replica has evident flaws and on dial, we cannot consider it a First Class replica, good high quality rep and no more. With a correct hour hand it could get a First Class status bordering a lower one.

Love the PAM in your first post.
Id think that may work in a SS case too. Really like the textured face, something different.
