I bought a 2012 Panerai PAM 112 recently that was serviced at some point. It’s keeping excellent time and the amplitude is strong. I had a watchmaker take a look at it and with his loupe (didn’t open it up but it has a display back) he felt the jewels ...

I had a watchmaker take a look at it and with his loupe (didn’t open it up but it has a display back) he felt the jewels looked a little dry but felt that because the amplitude is good and it’s keeping good time just to wear it and wait for it to loose time then service it. A very honest answer. My fixation is if the jewels are dry maybe to bite bullet and have…

So this is a bit of a continuation from my post on my new PAM 1086. Thank you for all the replies and provided answers that you had, but Panerai is unable to provide any consistent answers to my two questions and contradict themselves.

1. Is the bezel separate from the case and replaceable if it gets damaged or is it integrated into the case.

Panerai Canada Richemont Group Authorized Repair Facility: No, it’s an integrated case.

Panerai USA: Yes it’s replaceable

Panerai Boutique where I…

I just purchased a PAM1086 after wanting a Panerai for quite a long time, specifically the PAM000 when I first became aware of it. I love the simplicity of it and to me that is the beauty of it. I’m not so concerned of the lesser water resistant, I guess one could argue it’s truer to vintage Panerai’s that were originally rated at 100 meters. I understand the case is solid, meaning the bezel is part of the case and cannot be replaced if required. Perhaps a cost saving measure or maybe…

I have a 2024 Speedmaster Pro cal 3861. I know there was an issue with the chronograph that was updated with a new style bushing, and this bushing was being installed on all new 3861 movements so I figured I was safe buying a 2024 one. I’m wondering if all the bugs have been addressed in this new movement or are others still experiencing issues? I’m confident Omega will resolve any issues I’m just wondering what the census is. Hoping the 3861 will be as reliable and durable as the previous…
