That really is a stunning looking Panerai Radiomir PAM 721.

It is just such a clean and beautiful dial and case it really is an example of Panerai at their best, may they soon return there. Marc

I have several 47mm but not this one; I love the less is more concept. Probably why I love the furniture and architecture of Mies van der Rohe!

Rolex made the first PAM watches for the Italians.

Sure is. Back in the 1930’s, I believe.
