Hi Everyone,

First of all, congrats on the new Panerai site, i've been a member of BS since quite sometime & now looking for my first Pan, so might need your expertise help.

I have this one on offer, but need to identify if it's real or no?.

Hard to tell from the quality of the images, but I'd say it was fake...

I'm by no means an expert but I'm quite sure thats a fake. Have a look at the movement from my old 112..

see how around the escapement (i think that's what it's called) the metal is all curved and in your it's quite angular...Also i don't think yours has a swan neck regulator. Even though the 112 and your watch are different models the manual wound movement they use is fundamentally the same.

Hope this helps
Mike

My 2p's worth, the strap looks fake or at least not original, that model doesn't normally have a folding buckle.

I thought all dials showed L SWISS MADE L that example clearly only shows L SWISS L

Also the OP number is on the case body, not the perimeter of the case back like my 112 and the one shown above.

I'd say it's a fake, this is the rear view of a 'Luminor Marina',

Edit
Oh and i just noticed the eBay logo in the pics!!!!!!!!!!! Walk or run would be good imo.

when asking people to see if your watch is a replica, it is best to post the largest pictures possible. unless the rep is a really bad quality one, you can hardly tell if it is fake or genuine off those tiny pictures
