Interesting perspective Sergio
I might agree with you actually, but aren't these hands on vintage Panerais too? Not that it matters -- as you say, it comes down to personal taste.
I have a 587 and do find the hands beautiful. To be honest, sometimes I think the hands are too beautiful (if that's possible), in that they're elegant and graceful on a watch that is big, thick, and masculine. All in all, I do prefer the hands of the 587 and 673. But this is also why I like the blue hands of the 721 -- they're less elegant and lower key, which helps mitigate the overall visual impact of a 47mm Panerai!
every watch looks gr8 on with your photographic skills...& that is a compliment !
662 dial adds a gr8 character to the watch...of course the case too but dial is what wins... Thanks for sharing. Best, mahesh.,
Thx mahesh. The watches make it easy. I just use a normal iPhone and these are mostly just snapshots.
Of course because of my Pam addiction i have taken various of these shots i guess, lol.
Hello, the dial of the 662 or 663 is magic !
The color play with the light , it' s a pleasure !! Just a photo ... ...
Every time I see this model.....
I wonder why they didn't use the hands of the Fiddy or the 232 or the 587. Could that be because perfection is considered...unattainable? Go figure.
May i ask why?
I personally believe the 662 is good exactly as is it. I don’t think with the bigger hands of the 127 or 232 would better fit to it. Just a few of the vintage watches had these bigger dials. And i am pretty sure, that the sharper hands from the 587 would ...
I've never liked the hour hand of the 372, 422, 605, 662 etc
I find it kind of stunted and ungainly. I guess that, as usual, it boils down to personal taste.

Correction!
I have a 673, not a 587 -- though I wish it were the other way around ;-)
Matter of fact....
I don't believe there's a standard size hands in Vintage models. I guess that since they were producing tools, the aestetical part took a back seat. I have, seen all sorts of hands on Vintage models but, in general, the hour hands were a bit more..tapered...
