Panerai PAM 685 and 687.
A nice side by side picture I found on the net ( Credit: Watchinsanity ).
I could see both of them at the SIHH 2017, and have to say that if I wanted to have a 4 or 5 Panerai watches collection, the 687 ( brown dial ) would be part of them.
For the moment, my trio is 662, 587 and 372, not necessarily in this order, but the 687 has a flavor which doesn't let me insensible.
The dial, for sure, the Radiomir case, of course, and these pencil hands which are very much my taste.
Best,
Nicolas
