Bokey TimeHello everyone, this is Bokey. In this watch review, I will introduce the VS Factory Panerai Submersible Series PAM00984. This timepiece is entirely crafted from titanium alloy, and its design style is more diverse compared to previous models. Now, let’s take a look at how the details of the VS Factory Panerai 984 perform and whether its level of authenticity is high.
First, we use a caliper to measure the dimensions of the VS Factory Panerai 984 Submersible Series watch. It has a diameter of 47mm, a case made of titanium alloy, a thickness of 15.5mm, and a weight of 130g. The dimensional data is consistent with the authentic version.
VS Factory Panerai PAM984 Quality Workmanship Is It Worth Buying?
Looking at the exterior again, VS Factory Panerai 984 has several special features. First of all, the outer ring is no longer stainless steel, carbon fiber, ceramic. Instead, the eco-friendly titanium alloy material is called Eco-TitaniumTM. Professional material knowledge is basically aerospace metal, these are not much to say, the visual beauty produced by this recessed carving is really amazing, in addition, there is a very special place. The words “PANERAI SUBMERSIBLE” are no longer printed on the dial, but are screen-printed directly on the sapphire crystal! It’s definitely one of a kind, and it’s beautiful! The third is the scale of the second hand, Panerai uses a sandwich structure and cuts out 4 arcs, which has the feeling of a slow shutter shooting the second hand moving. The combination of these new elements is really exciting.
The titanium case and black dial highlight the temperament and elements of the whole watch, which is noble and significant. The unidirectional rotating bezel of the new design concept can accurately calculate the diving time when diving, and the waterproof depth given by this product parameter VS has reached 100 meters. Generally, the basic waterproof effect of VS manufacturers is very good, which is much better than that of a large factory before.
Sapphire fisheye surface, wear-resistant and scratch-resistant, needless to say.
Looking at the fisheye effect from the side, this point is completely correct, if there is no fisheye effect, it will be fake at a glance.
It is worth mentioning here that the letters “Panerai Submersible” and “Automatic 300m/1000ft” are not printed on the dial according to the convention, but are engraved on the sapphire crystal glass that protects the dial using screen printing technology, giving it a more three-dimensional effect. Giving people a suspended design, in the reproduction world, VS factory is the first.
The titanium matte bezel scale is also in place, and there are no burrs when you zoom in.
The calendar window is also relatively regular, and there will be no defects such as burrs or processing marks on the edges.
The titanium case, with brushed sides and Panerai bridges on the lugs, is one of Panerai’s most iconic emblems. The bridge protects the handlebar from accidental damage. It is also made of brushed titanium. In the world of watches, this unique bridge design not only protects the crown, but is now one of Panerai’s signature DNA.
The titanium caseback, impermeable design, engraved with Mike Horn’s signature and marine creature motif, looks very clear and delicate, not frizzy, and the lettering on the caseback is equally deep and clear. The movement is naturally the integrated P9010 movement of the VS factory, and the same method of adjusting the time as the original. Stable performance and accurate timekeeping.
The strap is also distinctive, VS Factory Panerai 984 uses PET resin fiber cloth belt, which perfectly combines the old and new iconic elements, and is comfortable to wear and fit without being bulky.
The buckle is still a classic pin buckle, and the engraving on it is also relatively deep.
The glow-in-the-dark effect, as you can see from the picture, is a drop of leverage.
In general, Panerai has always been a tough guy since its birth, after all, others started with cooperation with the military. In today’s era of large dials, Panerai continues to innovate according to the requirements of the times, which is a good news for watch fans. Of course, VS Factory can follow in the footsteps of genuine products, which is worth looking forward to. The newly launched Panerai 984 did not disappoint in Bokey view, and the craftsmanship of the entire watch is first-class in the industry.
