New-arrival replica Panerai watches PAM 1294 and PAM 1386 from VS factory

Today, we welcome two new Panerai replica watches just made by VS factory, the reference number is PAM 1294 and PAM 1386, both have a Radiomir case shape, having waited for a long time for us not to see the new Radiomir watches coming from Panerai, maybe you guys will consider to buy one after being tired of these 44mm and 47mm Submersible made by VS in these years. The new replicas of PAM 1294 and PAM 1386 have a much smaller case that is only 40mm in diameter. The PAM 1294 has a black face and black leather band, the PAM 1386 has a green face and brown leather band, both features a solid case back.

Both replica Panerai watches are equipped with a super clone P.900 movement that is developed by VS factory, you can not see the movement because now these two watches use a solid back, well, this clone P.900 is very stable because it has been tested for a long time. I opened the back so you can clearly see the movement, it has beautiful decoration, but not as good as that on genuine movement.

VS makes a very good sandwiched dial on both replicas, the sunray blasted finish is as good as genuine, and the sunken subdial has a very smooth working hand, perhaps more people will like the green dial PAM 1386 because of its color combination gives the wearer a better visual enjoyment. VS uses calfskin leather band on both replicas, on the back side of the band, there are Panerai brand name and its logo on the leather. Both crown and case back are screwed down, the replicas are water resistant.

Panerai PAM 448 Replica

Panerai California Dial Replica

Now it is hard to find such type of vintage Panerai watches in market, and the benefit to buy replica is that you can appreciate these beauties at any time. Radiomir is the protype of Luminor series, the design of Luminor and Luminor 1950 case is developed from Radiomir, and Panerai watches were mainly produced for the Italy Navy, so the earliest diving watch from Panerai should be Radiomir model. Today, I will show you guys a great vintage Panerai, it is PAM 448 coming from our replica watch world, the replica has several classic features that could only be found on those Panerai watches in old times. Like all replicas on my blog, this one is also a 1:1 replica, it shares the best craftmansip, water resistance and lume are perfect, besides, it owns an amazing power reserve.

All vintage elements that appears on old Radiomir models could be found on this replica, including California Dial, Metal Wire Lugs, Pre-V buckle and so on. Anybody knows the origin of California Dial? I see it has a large difference with modern Radiomir dial and Sandwiched dial. The hour markers are very special, it consists of Rome and Arabic numbers as well as whiffletree markers at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock, all hour markers and hands are applied original superlumed material, the dial will emit green light at night, it is strong, the luminous material is durable and could last a long time. Minute markers are also very special, they are track-style scales.

Cushion-shaped case is 47mm in diameter and polished, classic onion-shaped crown of Radiomir features Panerai OP Logo, the whole case is mirror polished. To completely replicate the vintage Radiomir, this replica watch uses Wire Lugs, which are not welded on the case but fixed by screws, this is a little different from genuine watch.

The case back is see-through crystal, where you could see the movement clearly, all jewels are in rosy red and movement plates on base have beautiful Geneva Stripes decoration. The movement is modified from an Asian ETA 6497 movement but has a lot of features being improved. The two ends of the balance bridge are fixed by two steel screws, it is fixed tightly so that the balance wheel could work stablely and precisely. All engravings on top plates are in blue like original P.3000 movement. By the way, the factory has set two barrels in the movement, and they said the replica could offer 72-hour power reserve, that means you do not need to wind the watch within 3 days once it has been fully wound.

The replica has a lot of strong selling points, it will be a great alterlative of vintage Panerai California Dial watch for people who are crazy about old PAMs.

Replica Panerai Egiziano PAM 341 Watch – The Lover of Sylvester Stallone

It is a protype of Radiomir, Panerai Egiziano PAM 341 was made for the Egyptian Navy in the mid 1950s. There were only 50 samples made at that time, so nowadays the watch becomes very rare and worths collecting. A lot of Panerai watch fans who are carzy for its fantastic history are seeking for such PAM that is full of the most authentic Panerai military blood. Sylvester Stallone is one of them. As the most tough guy in a lot of movies, Stallone is a big fan of Panerai, he was wearing Panerai watch in many movies. Like the below pictures stated, at the location of The Expendables, Stallone was exactly wearing a Panerai Egiziano PAM 341, an oversized brown leather strap watch that is almost 60mm on a tough guy’s wrist, I have to say that really few people could hold such a big watch, only Stallone I think.

Because the high rareness of Egiziano PAM 341, this causes a large demand, so many factories in Chinese watch market tried to replicate it. Here I will introduce a replica Panerai Egiziano PAM 341 that is manufactured by one of these factories. The case is made of Titanium, so although it is in 60mm size, the whole watch will not be that heavy. The bezel has 12 metal studs, there are red Arabic 15, 30 and 45 numbers on the studs at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock. It is belonged to Radiomir series, but the watch also features crown bridge like other Luminor series.

On black vintage dial, all hour markers of Arabic numbers and sticks are all oversized. Central hour and minute hands, small second hand is running on the subdial at 9. The hour markers are brownish, which are like the tone of brown leather strap. Series name “RADIOMIR” is under 12 o’clock, the words “8 GIORNI BREVETTATO” mean that the watch has 8 days of power reserve.

PAM 341 Caseback

The caseback is not that vintage like the dial, the case back engravings are full of modern Panerai style. Screws, Pig and OP logo are clearly curved, especially the screws, they are absolutely the results of modern watch-making technology. So compared with the genuine vintage Egiziano PAM 341, this replica has a big difference on the back.

Antireflective coating, it is the phrase we usually call AR. Some replica watches feature two sided Antireflective coating, so their anti-reflective effect is even better than genuine watch. Now many factories plate the AR coating on the inside of crystal, so it will never be scratched.

The biggest feature of Luminor is its crown bridge on the case, the lever of the bridge press down the crown, so the time will not be adjusted carelessly and the waterproof performance can also be guaranteed.
