The most obvious cosmetic differences between the model this is based on and this actual watch is that the central seconds and GMT hand are both blued, the dial is sterile and there is a mineral display back.
It came on a brown croc-pattern leather strap with deployant clasp but it is currently on a BOB Vertigo Strap (in waterproof Juchten leather - "mocca" with ivory stitching) to which I have added another hole for my 7" wrists. It has sapphire glass with AR coating and date magnifyer on the front and the decorated movement can be seen through the display-back.
The watch has a stated WR of 50m, though this is not marked on the watch anywhere (the caseback, like the dial, is sterile.)
The lugs are screwed and the lug width is 24mm (the watch size is the standard 44mm Panerai size.)
The lume is good, if not to Omega/Seiko standards, and is quick to light up. The date magnifyer is 2x and is fixed on the underside of the AR coated crystal, so does not distort the date like some magnifyers do.
The case is all polished, with the exception of the caseback and the crown guard lever, like the original 63C.
Both straps are hardly worn (only a couple of times each) and the watch is mint. It was bought new only a few weeks ago for almost £240, without the BOB strap, and keeps very good time.
I have another tan waterproof BOB strap (totally unworn) that I could add if interested.
Trade-wise any suggestions considered - up/down/even.
If you have any questions, please let me know, otherwise thanks for looking and I look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers,
Guy
