Panerai
The C11 range - the MSL and Makaira are the most Panerai like CWs - although they look like they’ve been crossed with a Bell and Ross...

A C11 next to a PAM 000 from an older photo.
I used to enjoy the C11 a lot, it wears fairly small to it avoids being pranged off door frames etc.
PAM’s are magnets for a scratch or ding.

Re: Pannerai
Wouldn't the C11 look bigger, and more of a match for the PAM, if it was the steel case version?scanny wrote:A C11 next to a PAM 000 from an older photo.

To my mind the C11 MSLs are too slim to compare with a Panerai (someone will now tell me you can get slim Panerais), and you need the C11 Makaira, preferably the thickest Extreme version, for the better comparison.

Re: Panerai
Aligned with Gary that the C11 is much closer to a Bell & Ross than a Panerai......that said as far as CW watches go, agree that the C11 is closest but certainly much different

Re: Panerai
I'd agree the C11 is definitely the closest CW to a Panerai by far. It does resemble the Bell & Ross to an extent in that the C11 is more of a squared case than the Panerai, the C11 hands are also very similar to the B & R which can be seen from @scanny's photo of his collection.Viognier wrote:Aligned with Gary that the C11 is much closer to a Bell & Ross than a Panerai......that said as far as CW watches go, agree that the C11 is closest but certainly much different
In terms of dimensions the C11 Makaira Pro is near in size to my PAM 510. Although the case diameter is less at 42 vs 44mm, the height of 13.4 vs 14mm and lug to lug of 53.7 vs 53.5mm are almost identical.

I think I ought to just concentrate on my Makaira Extreme and be content.

Re: Panerai
OP, I'll refer to the gang on which CW looks most like a Panerai but, if you're generally looking for a cheaper alternative to Panerai thay isn't a straight-up copy, I'd suggest looking at Magrette.JonesNT wrote:In terms of styling which CW would most closely resemble the above?

Great quality watches from NZ for a decent price, with PAM cues but enough of their own style.

The relative slimness of my Panerai is for the handwound movement. The autos are quite a bit thicker, the auto I was looking at is 18mm for the 44mm case size.
The other main case size that Panerai do is 47mm and I suspect you may prefer that to the 44mm, knowing that you like a watch with some heft/size.

Re: Panerai
I think you're right, the Magrette more resembles the Panerai (certainly in the shape of case) than the C11. There are/have been a few Moana owners on the forum, nice looking watch.baldrick wrote: ↑Mon Dec 31, 2018 9:09 amOP, I'll refer to the gang on which CW looks most like a Panerai but, if you're generally looking for a cheaper alternative to Panerai thay isn't a straight-up copy, I'd suggest looking at Magrette.JonesNT wrote:In terms of styling which CW would most closely resemble the above?

Re: Panerai
I think Guy should go for a nice svelte 11mm thick 42mm Radiomir 512 or 620 with either hand wound or automatic movement respectively.

Guy, be a man and get a 47mm sub. It will be the only watch you need.

Re: Panerai
@Smegwina - I take we are talking Submersible not Submariner, Nick, and what about the Deep Sea you advocate I buy? Where does that fit in?

Re: Panerai
Guy, you can get a Parnis homage to the Panerai in order to "try before you buy", just as you've done with the DSSD. That way you can decide if you are going for the PAM, the Rolex (or both ).
