Hello all! Last week, the L.A. PuristSPro team had a chance to see the new for 2011 SIHH Panerai pieces at an event hosted by the Panerai Beverly Hills Boutique. Anthony Tsai ( click here ) and Bill N. ( click here ) posted some amazing live pics and yes,...
Wished they had a manual wind version of the Panerai PAM 382. The use of bronze material makes this watch unique and a stand-out. It will appeal to new Panerai collectors as well as existing ones who are looking for something different in their collection...
Panerai must have been reading my mind and that of many Panerai affectionados when they come up with this design. Yes, the hands could be longer and they could have put a rolex movement in it (which I suspect they may do and make it a limited edition in t...
Because I love the Fiddy 127 and what's there not to like about a composite version? Also my wrist is quite skinny and therefore the darker casing allows for a lower profile 47mm which is great. It's awesome, just awesome
372 comes first ... I THINK I really love the case and it is imo much better than the 127 of which I never liked the '1950' on the dial. Said it before but would you like it if the 232 / 249 had 1936 and 1938 on the dial ?? It also looks like the plexi is...
I feel that Panerai has created a modern watch that pulls directly from their history. From the case design to their use of the in-house movement, Panerai has created a modern calssic. It is the 47mm base model that most collectors have been waiting for, ...
Despite my expectation for longer hands, to me, it is the nicest modern Panerai... I love the newly designed case, to match with the original 6152/1.. And of course the engraved "LUMINOR PANERAI" That gives a nice vintage look to it... The use of their in...
As this is the composite model of the Pam 127. Alone,the 127 is the holy grail to so many of us who grew to admire the watch day by day.. Now the 375 comes with in- house movement, 47mm, lightweight and the same design of the fiddy. In additional with the...
I cam totally in love with the 382, the Luminor Submersible 1950 "Bronzo"... As a child, I spent many hours immersed in books - one of my go-to favorites was "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" by Jules Verne. The watch really feels like it would be something ...
the 372 its just being true to the original without any makeup on , and the 382 due to the fact that a new metal is being used in panerais cases " though used before in some prototypes" however the over all idea of bronze brings the PATINA back but in a m...
but 372 for the classic look and size with some new form cues on the case 382 is a very close second. The bronze just screams OCEAN! take me to the ocean! Reminds me of the old diving helmets.
Personally, I really like the 375 and 372. The 375, as John said above, is the modern Fiddy (127) that many of us missed out on earlier in the Panerai history. The Fiddy case is iconic and the composite just makes it even more unique. With the additional ...
I think the 2011 release is simply awesome and bold. It is like there are too many to choose from this year but too little in the piggy bank to shell out.. Cheers,
359 as I love the little second hand....... but the 372 is also only slightly less desirable. Loving the choice of OEM straps these days........ Really a vintage year for the Panerai afficienado
373 will definitely be my top choice if I can afford it and only 199 units available! Platinum, P3000, and clean dial, what more can you expect? Hope Panerai can come out with SS material at an affordable price range. Cheers! Alan
While I applaud some of the others in their own right, the 372 ticks all the right buttons for me. Overall I think this year's show was a great comfort that the brand can move forward while respecting and building from it's past . . .. standing on the sho...
I could not agree more with Alan!!!! Eric J 373 will definitely be my top choice if I can afford it and only 199 units available! Platinum, P3000, and clean dial, what more can you expect? Hope Panerai can come out with SS material at an affordable price ...
The combination of the "Fiddy" looks, "1950", composite material, and in-house movement is absolutely irresistible for my tastes! It would be the perfect accompaniment for my 292, 317, and 249 C
the retro design and simplicity in execution is what really captures my affection. The only downside for me is that the platinum case raises the price substantially (stainless-steel would be perfectly adequate) and the case size is too large at 47mm....
