powderfreak 0 Posted April 25, 2012 So is this cosidered a PAM or IWC? Never seen that before, looks like an IWC movement/dial transplant into a Pam case. Anyone knows details or something about the history of that piece? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

solkryssare 109 Posted April 25, 2012 "CHROMED STEEL case also MILITARY – WAR NAVY STYLE, new custom made, fantastic, build specially for this excellent IWC movement" Rep Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DFH 0 Posted April 25, 2012 Looks like a custom build hybrid - I know of no shared build history between IWC and Panerai - interesting hybrid, though.... hmmmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DFH 0 Posted April 25, 2012 Hmm thay has a Omega MM too. To like or not to like? Just saw that one as well - is this a new trend, mixing and matching like this???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pentax 0 Posted April 26, 2012 WHAT I THINK IS THAT LOOKING AT THE DATE OF THIS WATCH ,DURINGTHE WAR I GUESS THAT THERE WERE A LOT OF GOVERNMENTAL TENDERS FOR MILITARY WATCHES FOR MARINERS THE SPECIFICATIONS OF THE WATCHES WERE PROBABLY SPECIFIC IN TERMS OF DESIGN SIZE ETC... SO I GUESS A LOT OF MANUFACTURERS USED THIS DESIGN BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY THE WATCH IS DATED 1920 I DONT THINK THAT THEY MADE REPS IN THOSE DAYS OR DID THEY? :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timebandit 0 Posted April 26, 2012 The patent for PAM Crownguards is from 1956, the " IWC " from 1915, LOL Rep ! Greetz Uwe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted April 26, 2012 lol I was going to say, that looks faaaar too new and there are some historical inaccuracies in there with regards to timelines and development of the PAM case, IIRC!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Secondly, you're being a little gullible, I'm afraid. The watch is a fake - at best it's a gen IWC mechanism transplanted into a rep Panerai case... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10:10 Watch Repair 1 Posted April 26, 2012 The watch is a fake - at best it's a gen IWC mechanism transplanted into a rep Panerai case... It's been done with Pateks for a long time too. Could be a gen IWC pocket watch movement in a Chinese PAM case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
