The crown obviously is FAT V3
Crystal is not completely narrow bevelled but good enough
CG is correct but CG pin is a bit protruded
Bezel OK
Mid-case seems a transition model V3 to V4, The shape of the lugs is correct, but V4 usually has better defined contour of lugs joining the case and the distance between the lugs and the cushion shape edge is a bit higher

Dial: I cannot see the lume structure to decide about the version. Seemingly it is old structure, but cannot say it definitely

Ordered a hfac Pam366 from sead. No QC pics were send. He said only those upon request. Arrived 4days later. Here's the pic, is it the new caseset?

I couldn't capture the dial but it is definitely recessed. it is much better than my old 005 sausage dial.

Dial Lume actually SEEMS recessed, but it i really like below showed>

SAUSAGE%20LUME%20STRUCTURE%20%20GEN-rREP%20general-%20COMPARISON%20copiar.jpg---------------_zpsnwtd8nlw.jpg


Being the borders “recessed”, and due to you cannot appreciate the curved shape of the lume material, the lume gets recessed appearance.

any comment on the case set? The lever is loose and i have difficulty to adjust the time.
When i unscrew the CG, the stem will pop out. Is this normal?

Looks like new h fac to me.
Obviously the stem should not pop out of the watch. You need to open the caseback, insert the stem properly and tighten the screw a bit more.

Compare the dial to a Gen. Look at the marker. I think it looks off due to the crowding of the 12 marker in general. That is how the dial is. Look at eh gen pics using a google search or go to panerai website to compare.

It is almost impossible to see it from these bad pics without definition
Besides we would need to have pics of the side crown and the lugs from 3 , 9 12 or 6

Anyway the CG lever is, most likely, Noob.

It is weird because it seems to have engraved Q-series on caseback and this is typical KW, but the lever is not at all KW
