Would you buy the new 309/322 if your AD was willing to give you one ???
I clearly have my doubts on the combination of this watch, it's a historic case (radiomir) made of a modern material (titanium) with a movement (Minerva) that has historicaly nothing to do with Panerai.....ok it's inhouse and if I read correctly the status of Minerva today they only make a few hundred movements per year. Still 18000 Euro is a lot of money and I'm not to sure if this one will keep his value,
so guys, what's your view on it ??? buy or make someone else happy ???

difficult one
18K euro is indeed a lot of money, on the other hand, 150 pce is almost nothing (21 was 60 pce, 203 was also 150) 127 =1950 pce 217=1000 pce 232=1938 pce 249=1936 pce So, it is ofcourse damn rare but it's a bit expensive. Maybe we'll need bette rpics from...
Honestly....
don't understand why you would consider..The minerva movement isn't any better than the ETA 6497 in the 232...and if it were it doesn't justify the asking price...C'mon the new rads are not even made of platinum (wich would justify the high price (partial...
U saw my response on the other fourm
and I personally like the 322 and 309 from a aesthetics point of view. But regarding the Minerva movement, while I'm no expert and has no idea of its origins, the presentation on the caseback, IMHO, leaves much to be desired. I think its neither Panerai n...
wait listed in shanghai
Hi, am new and this is my first post on this forum... I've wait listed the 322 at the Shanghai Panerai boutique...agree with the earlier posts that the true test is when it's on your wrist. Price is steep (even steeper in Shanghai where shorter wait list ...
I thought a lot about it
And even if I find the combo of the 322 ( Brown dial/ brushed titanium case ) very nice, I decided to not go on it. I find the price ridiculous, this is the same list price than a Patek 5712...And for this price, I can get several more interesting pieces ...
