Focus, maturity, and a welcome call to heritage
I'm happy to see Panerai do something more with the Submersible line, which yes Anthony, shows a welcome consolidation vs just more stuff being released. I'm liking the focus here.
- I really love the Mare Nostrum in brown, but like so many of us, would've loved to have this in a more wearable size.
- The equation of time pieces are really very nice and unique with their simplicity, which is no mean feat.
- I like the idea of having a Firenze only LE, but however nice it looks, I can do without the engraving.
- "Carbotech" looks good, but is perhaps too trendy? I wish they would've released a serial, ceramic Submersible, much like the LE of last year.
But overall, I'm happy to see this new focus on a core line vs. singular releases. It shows maturity and confidence. To that, I'm very pleased to see a sharper vocalization of its heritage, (from the new videos on the website). That was a long-time coming, as it sometimes felt as if Panerai corporate were too understated about that in recent years. I left the website today with a renewed brand passion, much like I had in the beginning.
My quick thoughts on the Panerai SIHH 2015 watches so far
As we wait for the PuristSPro SIHH 2015 team to post their live Panerai pictures here, I'll share my initial thoughts on this year's Panerai collection. I want to see how the PAM616 Carbotech material hands up to wear and tear such as dings and scratches....

My favorite release might surprise you
It is the PAM604. I own an engraved Beretta shotgun, and I would absolutely enjoy this watch. But for what Panerai is likely to charge for it, I rather get a much more detailed shotgun or rifle. I do offer Panerai a wrist slap for not continuing the engra...
Agreed.
The 604 is my favorite as well... And yes, they really should've engraved more. Especially engraving the clasp as another PuristSPro member pointed out!
