I appreciate the feedback as I'm glad I'm getting feedback from someone who has a F Series PAM 88.

I hope I will enjoy it as much as you are enjoying yours.

Help re: PAM 88

 
 By: tommytrojan102 : March 1st, 2009-11:42
I'm about ready to purchase this from a local store that has all the boxes, papers, warranty card, etc. Everything seems and looks to be perfect including the price however I was wondering if I can get a 2nd opinion as they even allowed me to take photos ...  

Is this PAM88 real?

I don't think I've ever seen "OCEAN CHRONOMETER" on a Panerai caseback before. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. - Anthony...  

that's because you never had GMTs before?

I think they stopped engraving that on "J" series, but perhaps as soon as "I". Cheers, Asi

Looks legit

I had an F series PAM 89 GMT that was marked "Ocean Chronometer", I believe the 88 has the same markings. The remainder of the markings look good as well, and 2200 88's were made in the F series

K thanks for the info

OCEAN CHRONOMETRE was engraved until certain series. Mine (J SERIES) is different but If seen other older than mine with this. I don´t know whay you don´t see consistent the OP/BB numbers...I think its as usual. Take it to an AD, if you are not sure...or ...

Thanks Nacho for the feedback as that's why I'm posting because I believe this would be the best source. The OP and BB #'s are fine as I know those are legit as it matches the outer sticker on the box and the warranty card but it's the engraving of the F ...
