Officine Panerai

Getting a little bored with the typical looks of Panerai, I am quite attracted by the new one Pam654. It is a bit like the Pam518 release several years ago. This one got a crown. Busy looking dial, and somehow reminds me of IWC Portugieser, but better loo...

If you're bored with the Panerai look, why bother buying a Panerai that looks like something else? Why not buying...something else...directly?

Well, when I said "bored", it all because for a while they didn't come out exciting pieces. Repeating the same elements over and over. (685 and 687 were exceptions). LOL So, the questions is what you think of 654?

I think that, if you point a gun between my eyes and tell me: "Buy a PAM654", I would smile and tell you to...shoot!

I think the black dial version should fare better in the long term...white with the ecu markers...just don't do it...

at this point in time, if I wanted a..complicated..model (instead of a no-nonsense Panerai) I would buy another brand altogether. Twenty years down the road, maybe, I would be the first in line to buy a complicated Panerai. Nothing persona...
