Looking a gen I found a flaw on the bezel: the bevel of polished top edge is higher than the rep one. Here the pics of a 243M:

does seem like the GEN has a slightly higher polished bevel compared to the REP. but thats seriously nit-picking to the max.

It can be easily done by a watchmaker

Good spot! Very easy to fix I'd imagine too.

I really have hard time telling apart the 243 and 005 from their gen counterparts. Any little tells about these models are welcome..

Thank you again Angus! ;)
maybe a 243 V3 is coming!

Yeah, I am still confirming the caseback "DIVER'S" engraving, if it is wrong also and will fix both and release the V3 :)
Has Panerai stopped making 44mm Submersibles with ETA movements?

Could not find PAM243 N or PAM243 O :(

No longer available. It was replaced by 305... M serie is the last.

OK and we should make the PAM243 M as perfect as possible because it could be the last 44mm Submemrsible.

Is PAM024 has new models like N-series and O-series?
