Best, my friend.

I wanted to isolate POY's answer at Samrotandi's original post, to make it clear, and as it is a very interesting information. Here is the original post: panerai.watchprosite.com Here is POY's answer: More info about 5218-206/A (not produced under Panerai...  

Kind of crazy

Don't think that anything like that could happen today the way brands are managed. Do brands ever subcontract out small series that they don't want to handle inhouse? Best regards, George

Thanks for reposting this Nicolas!

It is interesting to know hidden stories behind the preV watches. Now it is also interesting to know that the 206/a was designed for military purpose. While the others are solely for civilan watch. Thanks best, Sam

I read the original post

I am struggling to think what could require changing. Any clues, Nico?

POY has the answer. He told me that yesterday. [nt]

No message body

Well, that...

...just makes me more interested! (Not that I think the bezel on this is anything special...the usual Submersible bezel makes much more sense for a Panerai) POY, can you chime in?

interesting infos

thanks Nicolas for clarifying that. but such a PAIN to keep this Watch up and Running .!!! frequent Maintenance, Service, Change Parts ???!!! WOW. who needs that.?? no wonder why it never went to production.!! Cheers Tony

100 hours of use?

Did you mean 100 hours of turning the bezel? Or 100 hours of the watch running? Cheers, Anthony
