I know we have the PAM guide which is extraordinary but what are considered current super reps?
Panerai is one of those brands where it takes much more than just a quick glance to spot a rep from a fake unless you look at the movement or have an open case back.
I see little to no point to ever go GEN on a PAM. A cheap gen case but that would be it.
Strictly from the front of the watch face what models are considered super reps?
The noob 111 v3 sure is, but what else?

You're asking a question with a myriad of answers man. But looking at pam guides and reviews, I've concluded that at the very least these are: pam 111 noob v4, 243, 390, 005, the mighty 029, and 292.

Generally I see more radiomir models receiving the "not so gen like" comments, probably due to the hard to replicate movements, many of which are visible from the back.

The noob 111 is so risky with shitty engraving on the movenent. I would stick with 005

It's hilarious how many times this thread has been started.. stick with the 111 v3/v4 and you'll be fine.

Ale's Guide is really the best way to find the answer. when I had the same question a couple years ago, I went with the 299 which had a closed case back and was nearly impossible to tell between the gen.

I think he's messing with you... he has to be.
Lmao yeah I guide for newbs to find the PAM GUIDE and then a guide for what to do when you decide you don't want to bother read it and rather start a thread instead :)
Nah, I think he meant there has to be a guide, on how to find the guide and how to use the guide. Hahaha

Haha I didn't even think about that! Maybe there should be... [emoji6]

Excitement sometimes gets the better of people. I can certainly relate. :blush2:

Even if there was a guide to the guide you'd still see two of these threads started each week.

You could have yourself banned from all the rep fora. It would just lessen the urge though. Once you have it, I'm afraid there isn't any cure. Sorry...well, not. :lol:
