Can anyone who has the OOR fiddy do a mini review, very interested in getting one.

These OOR reps are the same regarding quality as regular series of PAM 127 KW-V6Fac

Accurate caseset with impressive finish and gen-like appearance. Good dial and hands at the same level as better Noobs. Nice crystal with few distortion.
Movement nicely finished, accurate enough Incabloc mod (but always a mood no gen), Swan Neck as other reps. Sunburst effect on bridges is a bit less marked than gen but very well made and accurate enough. Upper surface of blue screws on movement are a bit rounded in comparison to the gen ones. The fonts of PANERAI engravings on bridges are a bit narrower, but is few noticeable at real size. Maybe the best version available so far.

I got a KW127 OOR from Sead.. He had access to them.. Maybe i was lucky! I simply asked forma KW127..









:angryshout::angryshout::angryshout: ANOTHER KW-SF? HYBRID :-((((, what a shame!

There is a NEW thread opened about that.
I would suggest to post your pics and comment your case there, to collect complains there, and follow the evolution of that nasty affair ...

I wanted to get a good pair of OOR before xmas, but I'm afraid I am not dare enought to order, as per today, any Fiddy OOR or not OOR. Let's wait.

Thanks for posting.

It seems that we have another case of inconsistencies on production
As you can see in above mentioned thread it seems proved that KW-V6fac are fitting their watches with SF or another movements different from their usual movements
In this way makers will create a complete distrust between the buyers

Really sad
Impossible to get a correct evaluation and reviews

I guess it is the nature of the Replica game.. I spoke with Sead and he was surprised too about this issue..
I'm wondering if now we should be open and have a look to all the closed caseback watches from KW to double check what is really inside them..

I don't agree it is the nature of OUR CURRENT replica game. Indeed you are saying that Sead was surprised
I didn't expect such a changes from reputable makers : Noob, H maker, KW-V6, ZFac, JFac ....

I would expected such kind of flaw from a brand new factory or a brand new model.. I intentionally expected a couple of months before to purchase the 127 from KW to be sure that such a things wasn't going to happen.

actually we cannot call this a flaw.. Since a totally different movement with worst finishing had been intentionally used.

Quoting myself :blush:

Dear friends, I´m sad to report that pushed by the recent distrust floating around, I opened my last purchase from KW factory, and found inside a 6967 when I asked for the updated version with 6967-2 movement. :sad: (Of course, I informed my TD).
