Panerai and Mike Horn

Ciao Gentlemen,

This morning i was ironing some clothes, and on the back of one of them a map is embroidered.

I looked at the map and it made me think of the challenges of Mike Horn...

I admire this man !! I'm wondering what will be his next challenge and where it'll lead him.

And i wish Panerai will take part in his next adventure. Maybe we'll see a new model on Mike's wrist ?

I love the PAM 186. If only there was no cyclop

And you, do you want Panerai continue its partnership with Mike ? And do you want to see a new model specifically designed for his new challenge ?

Thanks for watching and best regards

Fabio

Btw, ironing clothes is sometimes challenging

Aaah, the good old days, and the early 2000's!

The Pam 92 made me dream, and I owned it for several years. That was a great Watch, with a kind of mess, as the Pam 92 was announced as the Arktos, when , one year after, its gMT version was said to be the only one which attended the expedition... Panerai...

Mike Horn is a very passionate man and very eloquent too

Here is Ping's fabulous coverage report when we went aboard and sailing on the PANGEA in June 2011 for those who haven't seen it before: You guys definitely should take a look at the video we shot of him telling us his stories. Cheers, Anthony ...

I just watched the video

A true life lesson, humility at its best. Thank you for posting this video. Best regards Fabio

another...Mike Horn model? What possible use would the world have for another one of these God awful chunks of metal?....Jokes and personal taste aside, I hope Panerai will continue backing Mike up. The guy is a great guy and the brand will benefit from t...

Well, the Pam 92 was quite cool, don't you think? [nt]

....other than the 341..and I, don't mix. The whole brawnie-rugged-mucho macho connotation, just excapes me completely. That could have something to do with the fact that the..REAL..brawnie-rugged-mucho macho..chappies that blew up ships (for real) wore.....

LOL! Sergio, I love the way you put it. :))) [nt]

Sergio, personal taste aside, don't you think...

Mike Horn's tenacity and endeavours should inspire Panerai and push them to produce a watch that deserve to be part of his great challenge (hmm, maybe i'm too mean to the brand) ? Come on Panerai, show us you are a real "workshop of idea", and not only by...

Nope, I think Panerai should chose whatever...

they...feel appropriate, as an inspiration :-) You can't write: "personal taste aside". Without personal taste, who cares what they do? Ciaooooooo

Sergio,

I wrote "personal taste aside" because you mentioned you are not a fan of these "awful chunks of metal". And my question was considering only the technical aspect of designing such watch. But i admit the meaning of my question was not clear. Best regards ...

You and I...

I'm sure, view "Panerai" in a vastly different way. I detest everything that is not a plain, 3-6-9-12 dial, manual widing time piece, perfectly represented (for those who can't afford vintages or a 21) by a 232 or a 249. You're ranting about...workshop of...
