Amazing review and very professional photos. Thank you. You may have convinced me to add a white PAM to my collection.
fantastic breakdown Steve!
Case Back View
For the gap between the case back and case, TTF is a bit bigger, VSF is better, at least it doesn’t looks so obvious, even for physical observation, it is same like the photo.
The screws on the lugs of TTF are also different from GEN, there are clear lines on the surface.
Engraving of Case Back View
For the overall shape and depth of the engraving, the treatment of both factories is quite good, just different from the GEN in color.
Strap Details View
The strap color of GEN is a darker brown, while VSF and TTF are lighter. In terms of feel, the two factories are similar, but the strap of TTF is thicker.
On the printing of the shorter section of the strap, VSF and GEN are consistent, while TTF has the extra word ‘officine’. On the other side, GEN is an embossed pattern, but the two factories are not synchronize this part , and they are still embossed fonts.
Luminous View
Panerai's super luminous light is really good, and the luminous color of the two factories is the same as GEN.
Movement View
Since we didn't open the caseback of GEN, there is no pictures of the movement. Here we will simply talk about the movements of the two factories.
As we all know, VSF was able to quickly seize this market when they launched the Panerai model because of the advantages of its movement. VSF uses a P9000 custom-made movement (modified on the Asian 7750 movement), this movement realizes the quick-adjustment function of the hour hand in the first notch, which is consistent with GEN. The whole series of VS Panerai uses the P9000 movement, the P9001 and P9010 movements are all uses the P9000 movement as basic and changing the engraving.
TTF also uses the 7750 movement, but there is no change in the function. The first notch is quick-adjust the calendar directly, which is different from GEN.
Data Comparison View
Note: All measurements are in a clamped state, and there may be tolerance due to slight deviations in the position of the caliper.
Well, this is today’s post, thank you guys for browsing, if there are any mistakes, please correct me. If there is anything else I overlooked, you can put it up, and I will try my best to do it complementary and comprehensive, welcome to comment and exchange!
I will continue to bring you more detailed comparisons between replicas and GEN, which is also to help you guys to better choose your favorite replica models.
Note: Some photos deviate from the real object due to the angle of the light. The details are mainly written in text. The size of the comparison picture is relatively large. You can download it and enlarge it for comparison.
There is no perfect replica, only your favorite replica.
