NullMind 0 Posted July 3, 2011 Anybody know if the Panerai 332 is repped ? (is that even the right term ?), if yes, is it a good one ? Love everything about it, hope I can get me one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted July 3, 2011 Not seen a rep of this particular model - but bear in mind that the split seconds chrono would not function even if there was a rep. You'd probably do better with the PVD versions of the 308 that Robert sells in either quartz or auto versions: http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...&hl=regatta http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...&hl=regatta Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NullMind 0 Posted July 3, 2011 Not a huge fan of the busy outer ring on the 308 :/ But thanks for the info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted July 3, 2011 okay - well, the 253 is the other obvious contender - albeit without the waffle dial. I haven't seen a PVD version of it though, I'm afraid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NullMind 0 Posted July 3, 2011 Er, noob question ... 'waffle dial' ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted July 3, 2011 The waffle-patterned dial found on the Regatta models - you can see the pattern quite clearly on the photo you posted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NullMind 0 Posted July 3, 2011 Hoo, hehe, gotcha After allot of googling I found this http://www.watchesen.com/panerai-special-e...ating-case.html Mary said she doesn't have this model, maybe one of the other tested sellers does Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(since no PVD) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFleischer 4,355 Posted July 3, 2011 Yes the closest seems to be the 308 PVD chrono. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeandroBR 14 Posted July 3, 2011 okay - well, the 253 is the other obvious contender - albeit without the waffle dial. I haven't seen a PVD version of it though, I'm afraid. Even more obvious contender is the 286J, with waffle dial - albeit non PVD or Titanium case and false rattrapante button. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amuthon 0 Posted July 3, 2011 Hmmm, my 253 seems to have the waffle thing... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m3csl 0 Posted July 3, 2011 what about this Any thoughts on this one That one is not a PAM 332 rep, but seems like a nice watch. The movement is one of the best handwind chronos around in the rep world. Good luck! Thanks mate might hold on a bit to see if there a better pam 332 See this!! but not from trusted dealer.. http://www.watchesen.com/panerai-special-e...ating-case.html some people will never understand... why?

amuthon 0 Posted July 3, 2011 You mean? As I understand, there's no good rep of this watch. Look at the pics from "watchesenscammwhatever", what do you see? Do your homework mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted July 3, 2011 See this!! but not from trusted dealer.. http://www.watchesen.com/panerai-special-e...ating-case.html I also looking for one 332 with this... 1. rep straps are usually lousy. Buy your watch THEN buy your strap. 2. Read back a few posts. As I said earlier, lots of scam sites list watches that don't exist.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know what you mean now. :( But what a the difference between 253 and 332 ,only PVD costing? No, they look similar but are functionally quite different. The 332 is a rattrapante model with a split seconds chrono (two centre seconds hands). Not a feature you'll find in a rep, however, as none of the standard rep movements support that particular feature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NullMind 0 Posted July 3, 2011 I have to say, that 308 is starting to grow on me, just saw this full PVD with PVD bracelet on watcheDen http://www.watcheden.net/panerai-luminor-r...-53293-p-1.html Looks very nice (that is the 308 ... Right ?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
