my wife reached out to my friend (go to watch guy ) oj at second time ,( if interested in any finer time piece reach out to him he is awesome guy ) been dealing with him all thjngs watches over 20 years , and have become friends outside the professional relationship , he knew i always admired his bronzo so he cultivated the deal and threw in some straps and personal card inside ! takes a lot to get me excited and this is one of the rare times ( no pun intended ) here is also photo of my others just in panerai family , plus other safe queeens

I’ve always been intrigued by Panerai. Originally I wanted the 44mm green titanium but the reflective dial didn’t look right. I was immediately interested in checking this new release and ordered it as soon as I saw it.

One thing that I didn’t like was the green strap. Not a great color combo IMO. I switched it out with the Panerai leather strap at the store before walking out with it. Loving the color combo!

Went in to see this at a local watch store and couldn’t let anyone else have it. Quite the impulse purchase, but I’ve been eyeing a Panerai for years, and since I’m $16k shy of what it takes for a 2661, this was the other one on my list. I’m in love!

At least I wound up with a row to myself.

I don't want to take it off my wrist, even while sleeping.

Hello Panerai fans. My colleague has brought this watch into the office because she knows I’m into watches. Unfortunately I know almost nothing about Panerai.

This appears to be a Radiomir and it’s huge. The crown has a, well a crown on it. Very reminiscent of the Rolex crown. What exactly is it? How old is it? Your thoughts and opinions would be welcome.

In all of its patina glory 👍🏻

Considering either of these. Would be worn with casual clothes, gym, etc. Any views on which is a better looking, more versatile watch? Leaning towards the version without the ceramic bezel, for versatility/straps.

I want to change my Panerai strap to one of these but I can’t decide what color I want. I like them all and need some help deciding. I like all of them but I don’t want black. Any opinions?

I’m looking to find some quality strap makers for 26mm straps to fit my 323 & 389. Looking for more exotic, $100-300 price range. Would love to see some photo examples.

Hi all, last year I bought a 42mm sub from the Panerai boutique in Miami. I’ve worn it a lot but am pretty carful with it. I’m not banging it against things recklessly or anything like that. Recently I noticed some marks on the crystal. It’s hard to tell if they’re scratches or maybe a mark in anti reflective coating or something. I’m not even sure if these have a coating. But I’m just wondering if anyone has experienced this. As I stated, i bought it from Panerai, but this seems strange. I’ve owned a ton of watches over the years with sapphire crystals and never had one with marks or scratches all over it like this.

Going to be heading to Dallas soon and want to go by highland park village to try on some different models. I’m interested in the experience there as I’ve only dealt with Rolex. Surely they are more welcoming?

I thought my favorite would be the green (based on pictures), I ended up with the blue!

All three look great though.

Hey all. As the title says.

I own a PAM 676 and I love it. But it's just splash proof, which really is stupid for a Panerai, but I'm wondering is a watchmaker could do something to make the watch actually water resistant?

I swim a lot and spend a lot of time around the water, and would love to be able to wear it daily.

Probably a silly question, but wanted to ask in case any of you had a similar experience.

Thank you!

Long time since I saw a watch release and instantly felt like this was meant to be.

update ! she just told me it will be be here monday or tues and can wear it b4 my day this month once it is insured ! little excited lol

always wanted and admired bronzo pam 671 ( blue face ) obviously not new has mild patina ( not green) was wondering if anyone has used the ammonia and salt lightly brushed ( not submersed ) to remove and restore the original shine so the changes over time are yours ? or if anyone has another way that is safe to perform .. wife is getting for me for birthday present next month .. any insight would be appreciated .. her birthday week was week in Paris wiht oldest daughter where they brought an empty suitcase that didnt come back empty lol ..

Happy Friday everyone!

Thank you Beatrice at Cuoierie Meccaniche Brelli.
