the dial is all wrong:
- hobnails are supposed to be raised not sunken
- the tick markers for the seconds are printed on a flat surface on the gen not on hobnails
- the font for the Panerai, Regatta, etc is wrong
- the movement decoration is also wrong - as ususal
now this one is very close other than the naming luminor panerai and regatta flyback should be on the plate like this one:
you guys can compare it... my friend own one and he refused to sell it.. i don't think anyone stupid enough to sell his gen 253... :lol: I will try to ask him to take couple picture of his gen 253 this weekend. I will upload his gen 253 when i get it.
there are 2 dial version out there - the one posted above and the one I posted under PAM253 new updated dial - most versions avaiable are based on the above dial. The newer dial version has other flaws
no the new Angus version with the different dial, has an Asian 7750 - best quality ever I might add from a finishing and accuracy standpoint. The one above is the older version with the most common dial and that is the only Swiss 7750 253 available so far.
