PAM 55 C Authentication Help

I'm wondering if anyone can assist me in determining if this watch is authentic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the input.

Nick, anything about the dial in particular?

The text is not quite right on the dial "Luminor Panerai". Also the engraving on the case back looks a bit off. Hard to explain. If it was me, I'd get some more feedback from TRF before taking the plunge.

Is this a Craigslist deal? Tough to tell from these pics. The first pic makes the numbers look odd to me, but I could be wrong. If Craigslist, I'd walk. I'm guessing no box and papers?

I might take a pass on this one. Can you get a movement pic?

Looks right to me... best way to check is to open the movement, it should look like the back of a Pam 36B, NOT like the newer 111 Es etc.

No box or papers. I'll try to get a picture of the movement.

Thanks for all the input!
