How about PAM 911 from HW factory? – Susan Reviews on Replica Watches

One week ago, VS Factory announced they were accepting orders for all Panerai replica watches, leading to a surge in purchases. However, they have since paused order acceptance again. Market sources indicate that while orders can still be placed with VS, processing times are uncertain. This development suggests VS Factory might fully reopen in 2022, offering hope to enthusiasts seeking top-tier Panerai replicas.

For those unwilling to wait, alternatives exist but come with compromises. During VS Factory’s 2021 closure, only HW and TTF factories produced Panerai replicas, with neither matching VS’s quality. HW Factory, however, provides a viable option for those seeking moderately priced, manual-winding Panerai watches. Their PAM 111 model, for instance, features decent case finishing, a sandwich dial construction, and a durable leather strap—sufficient for most buyers.

The author personally recommends the PAM 111, sharing that their own replica has performed reliably. While some criticize manual winding as inconvenient, the author appreciates the daily ritual, noting that even automatic replicas require regular winding due to limited power reserves. This habit, they argue, ensures accurate timekeeping.

HW Factory’s replicas excel in exterior finish, with cases and dials nearly flawless. The main drawback lies in the movement—specifically, the undecorated Asia clone 6497 in models like the PAM 911. Without engravings like “OFFICINE PANERAI,” the movement lacks visual authenticity, though functionality remains intact. This is less noticeable in solid case-back models. Current market conditions, influenced by COVID-19 and legal pressures, have stalled movement advancements, leaving enthusiasts hopeful for VS Factory’s return.
