Some better pictures would help us give an honest assessment, but in general, I like it. My 088 says hello...

Looks to be a Noob PAM297. Great watch, functional GMT and SS bracelet. Congrats!

I'm really liking it . Looked at some gens online and it seems pretty close .
Do they get the pans pretty close?

You are correct! I've tried to like leather and carbon fiber, but I am too use to SS. I do have a gen nylon which is pretty comfortable also...

First they are called PAMs (short for Panerai Models) not Pans. The factories get some of them really close. That Noob PAM297 is a good example. It's classified as a super rep.

Nice looking 297 indeed. Just got my vsf 312 and now thinking about buying gen.
