Not too keen on the one in the OP, but for the cash its not bad. That Panerai mings.

a man who thinks panerai "mings" is a man without taste

No he's right, it really does look awful. 2/10 from me.

OP's watch 5/10.

I have a Raymond Weil which has a proper (non quartz) movement - it's nice.

Heh.

It'll set you back the best part of a couple of grand or more.

Looks like a Panerai Luminor 005 to me.

looks nice tho, but tbh, I'd rather not have a watch that costs more than my car

Here are some more pics i took Rotty:

All fake 127s seem to be #117, nice if it were real. Its one of many on my list

nealw · 14 Oct 2006 at 23:04

It's a Panerai 127 1950 (aka "fiddy")

As some people have mentioned, it may or may not be genuine.

However, i love the look of it, and i get complimented on it all the time. Unless you really know what to look for on this model, anyone would be hard pressed to spot it as anything other than genuine.

Cost me about £120.
