Talking out of my Soul...

great summery and it brings it just puts it on the spot. I felt the same.

On the beginning a bit unsure due to the color of the dial and the question how close it that to the 6154. But it revealed part of his beauty already in the boutique and I somehow fall in love and bought it. some who bought it already and onwing as well the 587 recommended rather the 662.

Owning it now I fall every day more in love with it's uniqueness and this charming dial. I can't wait to get more straps and put them on.

I agree that the most on the point that I whished the case would be a bit thinner. I ask myself as well why they haven't done a bit more sandwich . But when I looked closer I see this engraved and filled numbers which is great and seems to be very similar to some 6154.

To make long story short: it's a great watch to wear and to own

Panerai 662: A no holds barred review

By: ImranLondon : October 9th, 2016-14:33

If there ever was a reference so revered that it takes on almost a devine presence it is 6154- aka The Small Egyptian Most admirers and even non admirers of Panerai have longed for Panerai to produce a homage piece to honour thus devine reference. So when...

Great context by which to view 662..

By: Echi : October 9th, 2016-21:08

or tributes and re editions for that matter. Thanks for the review Imran. A beautiful keeper no doubt.. do you also have the 587? Your thoughts on the 587 from a 662 perspective? Best, Echi

587 is same but different dial

By: ImranLondon : October 9th, 2016-23:58

Like owning a black and white Daytona I missed out on the 587, so its a question of which one you prefer

I was very impatient to read your thoughts on this 662.

I think that you, Sergio and me are speaking the same language when it comes to the 6154. The language of passion and madness for the 6154. So, when the 662 came out, I was waiting for some thoughts from people who are big fans of the 6154. By the way, I ...

The irony is that the 399 had a slimmer case

By: ImranLondon : October 10th, 2016-00:02

So why they made this thicker and called it Small Egyptian is a mystery But does this mean that is the end of the line for a base 1940 Or will they introduce yet another 1940 base with a thinner case Maybe like the 372 in regular production? Here courtesy...

Aaargh. Maybe there is some place for something closer to the 6154, maybe... [nt]

It has been my opinion...

forever that the 6154 should be..left alone..and not "hommaged" by Panerai. The uniqueness of the dial, alone, makes it impossible to emulate anyway. Still and all, as you wrote, in its own right I find the 662 a rather handsome modern Panerai, deeply "co...

I find the 662 to be a wonderful modern interpretation with lots of Panerai DNA...

That said, I am very interested to see what is released for the Richemont 20th Anniversary in 2017. Maybe a sandwich brown dial in 622 case that will be a tribute to the 6154? Who knows, but many Paneristi's are very excited to find out! Chuck A

would be on my p.o. view a shame if they

By: Ahoi : October 13th, 2016-02:27

would introduce next year a new re-edition of a 6154 which is thinner and closer to it. I would consider as a pretty unprofessional and i would be really upset about it. Even though it would not chance my opinion about the 662 which is just a great and un...

Great post dear Imran!! Completely agree with your words...

By: Subexplorer : October 11th, 2016-06:47

... and thoughts about this watch. Coincidentaly, I bought mine yesterday and I'm showing it in a separate post. I completely fell in love with its gorgeous dial as soon as I viewed it in the flesh. Forgot all those comparisons with the Small Egiziano and...
