I was thinking, most watches out there have other brands that look similar. U-boat, Welder, Debaufre, B&R all look similar, at least IMHO; same thing goes for Movado and Rado as well. But I can't think of anything that's anything like Panerai, which is probably why I like it so much. I understand this is subjective, but I thought it might be fun to see other people's response to this SAT-inspired question:
U-boat is to Bell & Ross as Panerai is to _______?

If you like Panerai, you might like Anonimo. As I understand it, when Panerai was moved to Switzerland, the Italian watchmakers originally making Panerai started their own company called Anonimo. I really like their watches.

try the following links, maybe they will help answer your question. of course, still nothing compares to Panerais (IMHO)

http://www.watchseller.com/anmil1.html

http://www.wristwatchreview.com/2006/11 ... -dd-em001/

and i think this is the closest :)

http://www.anonimo.com/ try the whole collections, some are closer than others

and the best match of an unknown brand was listed on timefactor.com

Come on guys, tell us if you have other brands in mind :mrgreen:
