not many people are aware of this model or have seen it. This was a model requested..specifically..by an Admiral of the Royal Italian Navy (or so I was told by an absolute authority in matters of Panerai history) I think it's just "scrumptious" smile

... but I´m not sure if this is true. The Admiral request is something new for me. Thank you for sharing! Panerai offers this dial in his Pam 425 though I feel they ruined it with the small Maiale in relief over 6. Though that detail didn´t prevented me to buy one. Lol! It was also offered some years ago in a Limited Edition with white gold or platinum case. I´m sure you know the Pam number. Ciao my dear friend! Abel

This is a picture I posted some time ago. All I wrote is that the watch apparently belonged to an Italian admiral. There is nothing known that it was "specifically requested" by an adrmiral. Cheers Jose

This type of dials were made for the 6152/1 in the late 1950s. This is what the dial would look like in its natural habitat. Cheers Jose
