Should say 1968
These were not made in 1950, nor the 1950s. Luminor, the tritium-based compound, was introced in 1965. Luminor watches with small seconds at 9 o'clock were made in 1968, in a batch 21 pieces, which marked the final delivery of Panerai watches to the Italian Navy.

Panerai 47 mm Beasts: PAM 127 and 267.
The Fiddy, PAM 127 was issued in 2002, in a LE of 1950 pieces, housing a good old UNITAS movement, while the PAM 267 was unveiled in a LE of 6 pieces, in 2008, with its vintage 8 days movement, the Angelus 240. 2 blasts from the Past, for sure. Best, Nico...
I seen 267 with the owner couple of times. A rare and nice pam.
But I still prefer 217, the lefty has its own charm imo.
For me the 1950 on my 127 just means just 1950 made
Doesn’t bother me at all 😁 still feel one of the most unique of all Panerai

Panerai has finally embraced their true history
If you go to the history section on the Panerai website, they have now updated their history to what I've been preaching for nearly ten years. I got a lot of heat from Panerai enthusiasts, but it's finally done. Constant dropping wears away the stone. The...
History is written by the....winners
also, Panerai being bound by military secret, has always been...artistic, in their "dating" models. I had few dinners with Dr Pancani, who told me....stories
Even if I was born.....
in 1950 (and I bought the Fiddy, just for that back then) I agree with you.
Yes. Because of that...
at that time, I wasn't into "PANERAI", I had just started liking them and 1950 on the dial, was reason enough enough for buying the Fiddie. Only after (much after) I started learning things Panerai.. Lolllllllllll
Does anyone know if a 267 was ever “accidentally” left in a taxi?
Asking for a friend.
LOL! Back in the day, some “special” person left their 203 in the back of a taxi.
It is part of the Paneristi lore.
