Just wondering if my 911 is the only one with the quality control issue of not having the OP on the case back? I’m #323.

Here it is

crazycarlitos · 17 April 2019, 02:41 PM

That’s definitely wrong. Mine has the dp in that space.

Did u buy it new from a boutique and noticing it now ?

athan1 · 17 April 2019, 03:02 PM

Yeah. Isn’t that wild? ��*♂️ Guess mine is special or not so much lol

Box and paperwork from a very reliable dealer in OC. Originally from Las Vegas boutique

Looks like you have an unicorn!

brucethemanlee · 17 April 2019, 04:56 PM

Not sure if QC issue or you have a “real” issue

But my 911 looks like this

My 911 has the OP mark in that location.

If directly from boutique to ur hand, I would not worry since it appears that u have a unicorn.

But since it’s not, it would bother me until I verify the authenticity.

From the pics u posted, it does look real, except for the missing dp

Also, not important, but that is not the strap that comes with the watch originally.

athan1 · 18 April 2019, 04:55 AM

Yeah I have both oem straps in the box. Fingers crossed on the unicorn

I will have to look at mine today. By the way the Pam911 is actually going trough the roof.
10.000 euros on the used market. I will never sell mine tough. It’s a keeper.

Sublovin · 28 April 2019, 10:38 PM

Look forward to hearing an explanation. Understanding how these are engraved, I can’t see that this one thing “just slipped through “ somehow.
Get it looked at by Panerai

vivicorsi · 29 April 2019, 01:07 AM

Ok mine does have the OP sign.... I would get it checked by Panerai.

fullcourt · 29 April 2019, 11:25 AM

the one i had before moving it had the op logo on the case back....as others said get it checked out

good luck

brandrea · 29 April 2019, 01:10 PM

I’m curious as to why it isn’t present

vivicorsi · 30 April 2019, 12:26 AM

If it is an original 911 and it would be a Rolex this would be worth a fortune.
How could this happen, i wonder...

athan1 · 30 April 2019, 05:09 AM

No idea but I called the service center and they said they could add the etching If It seemed to be missing

xwalker4 · 2 May 2019, 12:05 PM

Mine also has it.

any further updates on this?

just curious

sunset117 · 21 May 2019, 04:31 AM

So you called CS and they said they’d add the etching? So that means it’s authentic I guess

Amg7861 · 21 May 2019, 04:35 AM

It’s totally plausible that during the cnc milling/ engraving of that ‘OP’ logo that the machine and/or operator glitched and missed that part. I sense some nice merch/freebies coming yr way if you were to mention it to Panerai HQ, failing that they’d prob take it back and engrave it again for you FOC.

I haven't seen a legitimate fake of the 8 Day movement, so if this has a true 8 Day reserve then it's not a Chinese knock off but rather a potential Unicorn

KBM · 21 May 2019, 11:19 AM

Too bad it isn't a Rolex, it would be quickly dubbed "error case back" and market would price it at 40k

athan1 · 22 May 2019, 04:45 AM

Hahah. Definitely 8 day reserve movement. Runs great ; even without the OP. But about this free gear tho...
