Panerai Luminor Submersible PAM1661 VS Factory Review

Panerai Luminor Submersible PAM1661 model is produced by VS Factory with a class 5 titanium case, 44 mm diameter and Super Clone P.9010 movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.


Before introducing PAM 1661 in detail, I wonder if this year's Basel event has been cancelled; I haven't seen a new model from Rolex. If it is cancelled, when will it open again? The cancellation of the Basel event in 2020 also affected the business of the fake watch industry.

PAM 1661 is produced by VS factory. Now almost all quality replicas of Panerai are made by the VS factory; You can't find any other factory that makes better Panerai replicas than the VSF factory, that's the truth. Of course, there are some exceptions such as Noob PAM 111, ZF PAM 127. As for this replica PAM 1661, it has a large case diameter of 44 mm, like other Luminor Marina models; The case thickness is 18.5 mm and I think this is too thick. Even the replicas with Asia 7750 movement are not this thick. Maybe this is the common problem of all replica watches. Some factories claim that their replicas are the same thickness as the original, but this is impossible, I don't think they are; At best they came very close to it.


It is produced with PAM 1661 forged carbon. Most of the new models released in recent months are made of forged carbon, and some are made of Titanium. Panerai has rarely released new models made of stainless steel in recent years; It's as if they've become addicted to using new materials in watch production. Sometimes they do this and the result is really great, but don't forget your tradition. Frankly, I don't like the design of the PAM 1661, it looks like a cheap fashion watch and lacks that classic feel of Panerai.

Movement and Caliber Performance
The mechanism inside the replica is flawless; Super Clone P.9010, developed by the VS factory, has a balance wheel at 7 o'clock and is considered a perfect movement derived from the P.9000. The mechanism is quite reliable, but a replica is a replica after all; If your link didn't test the mechanism for you before shipping, there's a chance you'll still get a "bad" one from the VS factory. Currently, those who purchase this replica also receive an extra pair of black rubber straps for free.
