VS factory Panerai 979 in-depth evaluation
VS factory Panerai PAM979, the literal is the literal of carbon fiber, which is the first time Panerai uses this literal. The whole text is made of two pieces of carbon fiber material (the nine o’clock is the small second dial). This carbon fiber with a carbon fiber shell looks more scientific and technological. Take a closer look at the details of the dial and sapphire glass mirror. Needless to say, this material has very high transparency and wear resistance. The outer ring is unidirectionally rotatable, and the carbon fiber matte texture with longitudinal lines printed on the bezel, and the blue luminous beads on the bezel completely correspond to the color of the dial scale. The disc scale is filled with luminous coating, and the hollow sword-shaped hour and minute hands are also filled with luminous coating. For clear reading at night, there is a calendar window at 3 o’clock. The shape of the frame is consistent with the original, and the calendar font is no different. At 9 o’clock is a small second dial design, which is also a two-color luminous like 979.
The arched large bridge of VS Factory Panerai PAM979, which always protects the crown, is also one of the characteristics of Panerai, fully demonstrating the innovative technology and watchmaking concept unique to the Panerai brand in the past. The ring is decorated with round nails and exquisite tooth patterns, and is engraved with physical timing scales, which is also the standard of diving watches.
The bottom cover of VS Factory Panerai PAM979 adopts a closed design. As the name “Survival Instrument” engraved on its bottom cover says, this watch is a veritable life-saving instrument. Along with this inscription are images depicting Italian Navy frogman commandos. For decades, Panerai has been equipping Italian Navy commandos with watches and precision instruments. Panerai is still creating works that embody the spirit of heroism and celebrate the legendary history of those special forces. The latest new works are professional diving watches equipped with a sturdy Carbotech™ case. The innovative material brings excellent technical performance.
The strap is a rubber strap with Panerai’s classic lightning logo. This tape is also exclusively molded by VS, and it fits the wrist very well when worn. The design of the strap is very fashionable and trendy, giving people a young and energetic feeling.
About VS Factory Panerai 979 Movement
VS Factory Panerai PAM979 Movement: A new generation of P.9010 movement solution. Mainly used for VS Factory Panerai, this is different from the past A7750+deck solution and the cheap Seagull ST25+deck solution. This is a new set of high-imitation watch solutions, focusing on solving the functional problems of the P.9000 movement’s quick adjustment & callback time, which are impossible to have in the past solutions. Well, let’s get to know this new high-imitation P.9000 movement. VS factory P9010 movement completely solves the appearance defects of Panerai replica movement, and is completely different from the appearance of domestic 7750 movement. The balance wheel and balance wheel splint position of VSP9000 movement are completely consistent with the original Panerai, and the stability and precision of the movement are very high. This high imitation P.9000 movement still uses the deck movement in the overall solution, and the upgraded part mainly comes from the upgrade of the basic movement. In the past, the basic movement of the high imitation P.9010 movement was mostly Shanghai 7750 or Seagull ST25 movement. However, the basic movement of this new P.9010 movement is a 23-diamond movement produced by Seiko of Japan. After the modification of its gears, it achieves the calendar adjustment effect and winding effect of the genuine P.9010 movement.
After 5 years of exploration, the high-imitation P.9010 movement has been very thorough in the details of the deck. The deck of this P.9010 movement uses the same etching and coloring process as the original, that is, the movement panel is first engraved, and then filled with proofread blue pigment to achieve a better movement board effect. At the same time, the useless decorative screws on the movement board are no longer fitted on the movement board, but are fixed with real short screws. This new high-imitation P.9010 movement is still very plastic in terms of daily difference. After calibration, the daily difference is very stable, and the performance in the swing is also very good. At present, the Panerai p9010 movement of the VS factory has been upgraded to the second-generation product, the second-generation movement v3 version, the pointer can be quickly adjusted, and the upgraded version has the same function as the original. The calendar cannot be quickly adjusted, and the function is consistent with the original. The GMT hand cannot be quickly adjusted, and it travels a circle in about 12 hours. The similarity has increased from 85% to 95%, and the appearance details are closer to the original. The position of the movement balance wheel is truly consistent with the original. The new movement developed with new technology is stable, reducing the problem of repair such as stopping. In fact, the problem of stopping or automatic hammer falling off of the previous 7750 deck-covered movement has been greatly reduced.
