New Panerai 'due' line
Well, it seems OP has introduced a new line of thinner models. I'm disappointed that the red gold models get a better-decorated movement but I guess they have to justify the price difference somehow. I'm also disappointed by the need to write 'Automatic' on the dials.
But the new PAM676 - 42mm, 10.5mm thick, cal. P1000, with a simple radial-finished grey-black sandwich dial - yeah, that baby looks pretty nice, and you could wear it on weekends with shorts and a polo shirt as well as with a suit during the week (only 30m WR though, so not for taking into the ocean while you're on holiday). I'm thinking of a very, very dark brown croc strap...

I was at the BH boutique and yesterday and they said look out new stuff on the way.
Thanks for breaking the news.
Hope hear and see more.
Thx

I'll be very curious to see what people say about the new line, particularly following the PAM512 and PAM574 models, both in the same 42mm size, the new ones being 1mm thinner than the older ones (10.5mm vs 11.5mm).
(I was a bit surprised to learn the 512 had a screw-down crown - not the easiest thing when it's a hand-wound movement inside! This new model would fix that idiosyncrasy, as it uses the characteristic locking lever for the crown - but then it's only 30m WR rather than 100m.)
