Nice piece, but personally I would rather roll that money into another PAM

zlin08033 · 23 February 2015, 02:18 AM

This one actually looks good. Just not sure about $3.5k.

SLRdude · 23 February 2015, 03:06 AM

No for me.
I can do a homage but not at 3.5k, add another 1000 and you can get the real thing.

For 3600 you can get an Omega Planet Ocean with the in house 8500 movement, 600m WR, jumping hour hand, ceramic bezel and one of the best bracelets in the industry.

Why is this considered a Homage and not a replica?

nick c · 23 February 2015, 03:24 AM

Thank you guys

Simply because panerai is not listed on the watch itself. It is styled to resemble a panerai which makes it a homage. Put a panerai logo or one of the copyrighted works on it makes it a replica.

I have no issues with homage pieces, and I am sure it has good parts (sapphire crystal, assume a real ETA movement etc) but at $3.5k, I'm out. This is my homage ceiling as far as price goes.

Stay away from homage and go for a real thing, any real thing.

Doesn't the watch in the picture he linked to have both the word Panerai and their logo on the dial?

nick c · 23 February 2015, 06:12 AM

So its worth $3.50

SLRdude · 23 February 2015, 06:47 AM

Good catch!
There you have it. It's a fake, not a homage.

You are right. My mistake. Looked at this on my phone earlier and missed it. Having the logo and the word panerai on it move it firmly into the replica/fake category.

I think at some point we'll have an official version of it, i'd wait for that although i'm worried just how much it would weigh
