Officine Panerai

Hi Armis

 

I am traveling now, but will do that once I’m back. I guess sharing an old wrist shot will mean nothing so I will take new shots and post here when I’m back.

The 360 is an overly sentimental piece. Co-designed with Panerai by some Paneristi members, one who has sadly left us. I guess it is meant to be a homage to what a PVD version of the 5218-201/A would look like. The PAM 2025 is completely different. It is a modern interpretation of a more wearable 44mm 1950 case with updated case material, dial design etc, while still retaining the spirit of a vintage Luminor. I might not have narrated it 100% accurately as to what a Panerai enthusiast would deem so (a matter of semantics) but to me this is the difference.

Best Regards
Gatsby

PAM 2025: An ode to the Fiddy and a nod to friendships of old

I promised a review so here it is. I think the title of my post is what this watch means to me, in essence. I’ll spare us the repeated nuances of the watch that we can find it published articles. But let me report back what this watch feels like on the wr...  

My favourite kind.....

the ones I call the quintessential Panerai. No bells, no whistles. Enjoy it too much!!!

Glad that you like the PAM 2025 Sergio

Given your extensive experience with Panerai, I’m glad we are on the same page with the “little dark Fiddy”. Best Gatsby

Ehmm.....

the dark Fiddy, in truth, is the 375. This, IMO, it's what a 6152 could have looked like, if "darkened" by a Italian "incursore" , for a night sortie

I guess you’re more accurate in the description

But the 2025 reminds me of the 127 for some reason. Dark Fiddy = 375 you’re right. But I said “little” 😂 Best Gatsby

I once dated a girl that reminded me of....

Kim Novak. Not as beautiful perhaps, but she also was from Chicago.. Lollllllllll I keep enjoying your beautiful 2025

You mention that you held onto your PAM 360 out of all your PAMs (before adding this 2025), which is a significant statement about that piece. Can you please share any wrist shot(s) of the 360 when you get a chance?

How do you regard the 360 compared to the 2025? Just from pictures, I imagine they are very different but complementary in their significance and key features that reflect Panerai DNA.

Your descriptions are great, I understand exactly what you mean👌🏽

I didn’t intend my request to make you have to put any added effort taking new pics. Anything old saved would suffice…but after your safe return home. Panerai has recently caught my attention again given the string of recent releases starting with the 521... 

You are welcome Armis :-)

It is also about time to take new photos, and happy to share my thoughts and photos. Here are the old photos (snuck in my Fiddy shot too 😅) Some of the nicer photos of my 360 here are taken by a friend who is quite a professional with the camera. Lastly…....  

Thank you for these pics. That 360 is a unique and sensual piece.👌🏽

And that must be Goros jewelry at the end, which is an experience in and of itself👌🏽.
