Looks nice!

I think the days of DSN are over..

From the pics, the dial font looks too white. Engravings have good depth but font it off. Balance cock is just wrong and its a lowbeat 6497-1 movement.

The font color is the first thing that struck me; too white as Strodda said.

The distortion from the domed sapphire seems to be too strong, especially when looking at the straight-on pics. Take a look at these gen pics for reference:

How so? What's the story?

I've got a DSN 127e. The text on the dial is a lot more gray than in the pics here. I think it's a fine watch, but there are more better versed in PAMs than myself. Here is a super quick iPad shot........

You're right, the text is definitely not as white as on those pics. The distortion is a little more than gen but it looks great otherwise. I love that strap too. Where did you get it? It looks like a Kain Heritage Veteran II.

It looks great and complements the watch very well. I'll have to pick one up sometime in the near future.

Thanks for sharing your picture and for the info!

Agreed, it looks great... Those first pictures must have been taken with flash on.

 

[Strodda]

I ditto that. This pic looks much better... very nice!

Gen is Ivory / Creamy not Grey.... pics of a gen dial from Vannic

 

[Luke Warm]

I think you guys are splitting hairs. [emoji6]

If I had to describe my dial I'd say it's ivory/creamy.

@davidsenjpn

David, why don't you take this opportunity to confirm the origin of your "new" 127 cases ???

If they are indeed Noob this is a good place to say it !!
If not, we will consider they have another origin

Also please comment about the movement. It seems low beat and the blue screws are a bit rounded, like KW version. The fonts of PANERAI on bridges is a bit wrong (a bit narrower) and have wrong placement just like SF

Incabloc is rep not modified. Swan neck spring is really nice. Correct screw

Looking forward to your news. Thanks in advance
