While not looking like a PAM, it does look an awful lot like an IWC Big Pilot. Which I am certain it was made to replicate.

It looks a lot like a getat 47mm auto pilots watch as well, which I assumed was a panerai homage but I could be wrong. Www.siswatch727.com

My comparison was not at what you said, but what Thrak said. Sorry for the confusion.

I have two Rolex watches. I've posted pics of my prized possession here a few times.

My daily is a Black Sub Date. My most prized possession on earth (as I don't yet have children lol) is my early 70's 1655 Explorer II.

Out of curiosity, do you ever have anything positive to say about anything that someone else has? Your act is tired bro. Have a Merry Christmas.

I thought telling me that my phone was a more accurate timepiece was a positive compliment.

It just has authenticity problems.










BTW, Bobby. I'm just razzing you. I don't know/care if your watch is real or fake. I just know it makes you mad when it's called fake.
