Hello everyone,

I am pretty new on the fields of reps, reading the forums all the time. Thinking about buying a Panerai rep, I'd like to hear suggestions regarding the most perfectly replicated model to buy. Which one do you guys think the best worth to buy in the Submersible line?

Thanks,
rew

Most perfectly replicated model and best worth are purely subjective opinions. I would suggest taking the time to read some threads here, not the least of which is the Reference Guide linked in my signature.

If you want panerai, then believe me, the point is not in accuracy, but in the model that you like. First, choose, and then look at the sprouts, if after that they will still worry you. Models with glass caseback are always less accurate, because there is the opportunity to see the movement, which can always be distinguished, even if it is a clone. But the community will not let lie, pam382 from bronze, one of the most successful and beloved models. If submersible, narrow the circle to size 47, 44, or 42 mm. This is a very noticeable difference, and everyone has their fans, and someone loves everything. Further material, steel, titanium, bronze, ceramics, carbotech or gold? This is also a very big difference. Narrow the circle, and there will not be many options, you will not get confused in them.

When you choose a model, look at its shortcomings, and as often happens, maybe they won’t bother you so much!;)

This in no way does not cancel the words of the moderator above, in the reference guide you can get acquainted with a detailed overview of each rep up to certain years.

There reference guide is a superb piece of work, however I could not get thru of it yet, also couldn't find model 1055, probably it's a newer model. I have a small wrist so I have to stick with 42mm, that narrows the list of course, my TD doesn't have 42mm of the model I like (PAM692). Thanks for the words above!

For each panerai sumersible 42mm model., There is an appropriate discussion thread for the release, where participants share their opinions, impressions and photos, which you can find in the Panerai section.
I suppose for rep 42mm., Sub it will be pam1055, pam959, pam683, pam684, pam960, pam974. Maybe I missed something ...
Pam00692 that you mentioned is 47mm.
