Officine Panerai

I loved that watch a lot! Extra Bonus: A macro. The good old times... Best, Nicolas ...

But so sad that today’s appreciation for Panerai seems sooooo low.

and the name stopped being whispered in dark alleys That happened almost immediately after the Vendome takeover and continues today. From the balance sheet/investors point of view, it makes too much sense, from the "history buff/Panerai diehard" point of ... 

Luminor Marina, 40mm, Automatic, date with cyclop glass, one: PAM51 with white dial and bracelet band, another: PAM50 black dial and bracelet band. The 50 and 51 are, for all intent and purposes, two Rolexes wannabe. IMO obviously

sad stories all around and I can agree with you, that some of the issues could have been handled...better haha

To my taste it is the pumped version of what it should be: there are very few wrists that can carry decently a 47 mm, and mine is not among them! Anyway, the idea behind 372 is great!

when I was wearing mine in the late 90's, with its 44 mm were many to blink the eyes: now we are addicted to similar measures, so to surprise we have to exaggerate... but I think it's more something whimsical than meaningful. I hope Panerai will hold its ... 

Now, a PAM 583 ( Marina Militare ) 687, or the 662, or why not the PAM 372 are in my wish list. Not sure I will have more than one or two, but I really want to have something from Panerai. In the souvenir of the goold old days...

the 3646 was a 47mm model as much as every other Panerai except for the 60mm Egiziano. The downsizing to 44mm was due to a commercial compromise and gave way to the..small Panerais. When you write....44mm were huge....I'm shaking my head LOL The PAM687 is...

when I REALLY want to treat myself it's only the 36, 2 or 9Pre-A or the LOGO. Ciao bello

the prices had already gone INSANE and I just couldn't afford one. I got in at the peak of the..bubble..unfortunately

I'm very late to the Panerai game but appreciate the perspective from those of you with experience and a sense of history. It sounds like the company lost its way somewhere along the line and has not really recovered. I'm an older guy who has been interes... 

I love the black hands over brown dial, white writings. I'm sure it is missed.

Stunner buddy 😍😍😍 Makes me want to take my militare out . ...  

Love my one but haven’t worn it for few months . I’m flying to Geneva right now with my watch club and we’ve been invited to Panerai on Friday for a factory tour. Can’t wait 😄
