Legit Panerai??

Can the experts take a look and let me know if this passes the real/fake test?

Tough to tell from the pictures, but it appears to be legit. The warranty card is 100% real and looks to be stamped by Mayors. If those numbers match up, then I can say with 95% certainty that it's real

Not 100% from those photos. Front on it looks ok (although a little beaten up), back looks ok.
Are there screws on the sides for the strap change? Sometimes the fakes don't have them.

Looks like it's lived a rough life. Scratches cant be helped but look at all the dirt buildup...

I am not saying this one is a fake BUT, there have been some REALLY authentic looking counterfeit Panerai movements posted on here in the past. Seeing them was really scary. One of our members here was duped a few months ago. Do your homework!

Mate, you need to take early 6497 movement Pams to AD's to verify them. They're too easy to franken and modify to look legit.

Safer to buy the newer models with the P3000 in house movement.
