which factory makes the best Panerai reps?

Recommended Posts

hi guys

 

Looking at e.g. Kuvarsit03.com which I have read delivers really solid Panerai reps, I see reps coming from VSF or ZF, and may even more. 

What do you guys recommend in that sense when going for the best copy?

Thank you.

Best factory is model dependent.

Bear in mind that many of the panerai models in ALE's guide are only available by m2m as they are out of production.  Unfortunately H factory is long gone and noob stopped producing most of their panerai line.  What model or style are you looking for?   I'd recommend caution and research with the superclone movements in VSF models (panerai and Omega) as there are no parts available should a movement issue arrise.

It depends on the model specifically. ZF and VSF are typically the best for a variety of models.

I‘d go straight for P-factory. They have truely the best 1:1 PAMs you can find.

Hi Rx4

Thank you for your input. I have been looking at the Pam 511 RG version from KW or maybe even one of the Titanium models. Another member recommended KW watches due to the quality. 

Do you agree in this?

Ale's guide is excellent but some of the information is outdated. Many of the older reps are no longer made. The H Factory which made a lot of good reps is gone.

Noob also cut back production on some of their models. The good news, you can still buy the Noob 111 or 005 which are great for about $250.

A lot of dealers have offers on other PAMs;

Anyone have an opinion on which factory is best for the PAM389?  (This is supposedly a QC pic of a VSF one, taken from the Trustytime site.)

Unfortunately VSF is not discussed in ALE's guide, but no other maker of this model gets anywhere near superrep status.

The models with showcased movement are not considered super reps (except 111 that’s still available from noob) because movement obviously not look the same as gen. Getting closer though. The front of the VSF is good though on the 389.
