gottahaverolex 0 Posted October 13, 2011 Got to replace my stolen 359, that I wasn't wearing that much because it was too heavy.You've convinced me. Awesome!! LOL! I never thought looking at this thread would make me want another watch. No! No! Look away! Do it Dan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ath 0 Posted October 13, 2011 damn! thought this was great with the first strap, but the combo with the assolutamente is f*** awesome!!!! looking myself to find one of these already is this a 24/22 one? do you know the color code/description? When I called the Boutique all I asked for was a Assolutamente strap in 24/22 115/95 XL. Color code on packaging says Dark Brown. Call the LA boutique because New York doesn't have the for another two weeks. Thanks mate, looking around the globe already... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OceanView 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Great looking watch and strap, Congrats! I have a question. I saw this Gen at an AD about a month ago and if I remember correctly I thought the strap was a dark chocolate alligator strap. Is the Panerai Gen strap you purchased the same as the Gen you saw at the AD or was it a dark chocolate strap? Also, did you by chance put your Rep next to the Gen to compare the color accuracy of the dial? Just wondering, Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scavolas 0 Posted October 16, 2011 With this gen strap it even looks more stunning! No question, I have to get one for myself (my finances will only allow for the KH XH101B strap with it though). I've already asked Mary, but she could get it for 40 USD more (she indicated she was sorry for this). I've never ordered from Josh -- but his 20 USD extra UK transshipment offer would be great for me. I just cannot decide whether to stick with Mary and pay more or start afresh with Josh. Does he deal with me through email, or I would be supposed to do my order on his Web store? How much it costs that Assolutamente strap in 24/22 115/95 XL Rich?

Also, did you by chance put your Rep next to the Gen to compare the color accuracy of the dial? Just wondering, Thanks You are correct, the watch at the AD was on a dark brown gator strap which is what it should come with. The Assolutamente strap only comes on special edition Pams. I felt it looked better than the dark brown gator so I decided to go with it. I didn't wear my rep into the AD to compare, that could be asking for trouble. I did however talk about replicas with the sales lady who didn't seem to care that people wear them into the store all the time. She said she's never seen a Pam replica but sees Rolex all the time. The dial on the gen seemed to be just about the same color as my rep, impossible to tell without a side by side but it's much lighter than I expected. It is very Close indeed. Look at the post above with a pick of the gen I stole from risti, looks damn close to me! Gen: Rep: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
watch.aholic 538 Posted October 16, 2011 Awesome combo.......The strap looks so good....The dial color is mesmerizing.....gives a break from the ubiquitous black/grey/blue/white dials.... I think I am going to have to put the 351 on my wishlist.....Just a bit concerned about that 7750 low beat movement that throbs inside......it's not exactly dependable.....Otherwise this is a perfect watch.......Unique due to the dial color, easy to wear due to Ti and you can dress it up with various exotic straps......... Thank you for bringing this one to the fore.....I am not sure why this remained hidden in the alleys until now.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for bringing this one to the fore.....I am not sure why this remained hidden in the alleys until now.... 7750's without the seconds @ 6 mod are pretty reliable. I've had tons over the years and never had one die. Don't use the chrono's and don't hand wind it and it should last. Don't let it keep you from buying this watch, you will love it!
