funny that any WIS...Paneristi or not are actually justifying this ....had this been a micro brand,WIS would be calling for their heads,and running them out of town!
...it's not unusual for high end Swiss brands to dump cheap movements in watches and charge huge $$$,or out source production to China and still call it Swiss Made,but when they get caught WIS need to call them out and hold them accountable.
...one Paneristi made a great comment about the PAM318 SE that made me laugh!:"Instead of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Manhattan Bridge would have been more befitting. It's closer to Chinatown..."...I really hope Panerai responds in a manner befitting the brand...funny thing about this hobby is,that this model may end up being a huge collectible because of what ended up inside!...
You are so right: Some WIS are so "on them knees" worshiping some brands that they could nearly wear a dried seagull crap mounted on a bracelet just because it's branded
Those basic movements Panerai used are completely out of class compare to them profile and if they wasn't as arrogant as they seem to be, they would never have authorize a such miserable movement housing.
What a blow on them reputation I would say!
Paper-flat excuses should be on the way if they own a bit of pride...
