H factory 312 vs Panerai factory 312

Recommended Posts

Silverspeed

Nope....I'm not going to make a uber detailed list about all the anal differences between the H factory 312 and the gen 312 :)

....that sounds like a lot of work....plus, who in their right mind carries a loupe around all day to even be bothered...

 

If looked hard enough there are plenty of differences, the ones I noticed most are:

 

Dial colour on the rep is slightly lighter

The rep crown is thinner

Gen lume is brighter and less green coloured

 

Here are a few comparison pics which should tell all there is to know

Damn, that is mighty effin' close there...

 

Differences, yes. But you'd have to be a huge fan of the gen to shell out the money with a rep out there that is that good.

nice comparison.

 

Really damn close (till you turn it over).

 

 

 

also.. I don't think that the PAM 312 rep is made by H-Factory.

The gen PAM movement is just so damn sexy. best of all the brands, methinks.

Also, the last comparison:

 

 

 

Rep: $238 Gen: $7000

 

Damn, that is mighty effin' close there...

they are very cylindrical, for lack of a better term. Lots of big plates.

Excellent comparison. I've been tempted by the new 312 for a while now and this thread isn't helping me get over it! :)

Agreed. I think the 312 is my fav. Unfortunately, with 4 pans so far, I still don't have one...

Thank you for that comparison. Nice pics at all! Amazing how close the rep meets up to the gen.

And it seems to me that the handle of the device protection is slightly different to the gen, isn´t it?
