And the color matching is 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
And the Submersible can take some time off diving for a while. Best, Emmanuel
Plus your strap choice for it is just beautiful as the colour match to the writing on the dial is excellent. Marc
And changing straps is so easy with the Panerai system !!
You've taken that tough dive watch and given it such elegant character with that leather. The contrast between the robust case and the refined strap it's like seeing two different personalities in one timepiece. Wear it in good health! Bill
Changing the character of the watch was exactly what I had in mind.
