lenin5 0 Posted March 5, 2018 Hi, Ive been checking a few Panerai super reps and now I wonder what separates a superrep from other high quality replicas? Ive bought several great Panerai replicas in the $200-$300 range. They're pretty much indistinguishable from a real Panerai on the outside. Are superreps given more accurate movements? Do the movements have the actual company engravings on them( the non super reps don't). Is dishing out another $100-$200 worth it? And this is pertaining to all watch brands not just Panerai.

GingerApple 7,285 Posted March 5, 2018 I'm told by one of the resident Rolex experts on here @tripdog123 that SuperRep bracelets make the same noise as Gen when the clasp is tapped. My ears aren't sensitive enough to notice the difference to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deju 1,872 Posted March 5, 2018 It’s all subjective, compare the non super rep to the super rep. Each model/factory will have different aspects that are different, flaws, finish, materials. Decide yourself from your own pro/cons list if it’s worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rod 0 Posted March 5, 2018 Usually PAM super-reps are closed case-back as compared to a high quality rep with transparent case-back. Even if some of the clone (p3000, p4000) or deco-plated (p9000 and co.) movements might look pretty convincing, a trained eye will always be able to spot the differences. Hence they are not super-reps- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkGlass 83 Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) Factories and sellers can charge more for Super Reps, it's all a load of bollocks just like the Emperors New Clothes, do some research, read the reviews and dive in. There's host of Facebook Groups called AAA + etc, they too are utter bollix, I am convinced that the people who run them buy crap from the Gate, triple the price and sell it to gullible twonks thanks for the tip on the bracelet thing Ginger Fatty I knew there was some some of Masonic "tell" Edited March 5, 2018 by DarkGlass Div Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkGlass 83 Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) In all seriousness though @lenin5 I have one of the original not just Super but Super Duper Reps Modded by old Steak Sauce himself (Hugh G Bell - End) It's a been polished with angel tears and cast in 905L steel ( so rare even Rolex can't afford that shit ). One of a kind and rare as rocking horse shit. I paid 120 MR for in in '95 and am happy to let it go for £899. When you consider the rarity, mods and provinence of this bad boy I'd act fast before those eagle eyed fuckers at the Geek get a look in and take a profit. pics are at www.getyourleglifted.com Hit me up bruvva D 2 the G Edited March 5, 2018 by DarkGlass Div Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
