Officine Panerai

to the time in which Panerai watches didn't come with all the bells&whistles or coffee making push buttons. Time when a Panerai did exactely what it had been built for in the first place: tell time PAM009 5218-201A LOGO PAM036 (Nico, this is for you) ...  

Funny how the simplest things are often the most beautiful.

Thanks for sharing. ...  

... but, for me, maybe the 009.

The color of the old PVD cases to me is "smoother" if that makes sense versus modern PVD pieces. And a clean base with the tritium? Just classic. I love Panerais - the ones that are at least 20 years old that is!

Will Panerai repeat this era ?!

lol

you obviously are NOT Italian...hahahahahaha Workers here (I am Italian) cost a fortune, can't be fired if they don't perform (the unions have more power than the Pope)..etc etc

I wouldn't. Never. Bring together the old Panerai team, make Maria Panerai the Chairwoman and use Rolex movements, like Pagani Zondas and AMG engines Hahahaha S

for starters the..tritium...can't be used anymore. Take that away and 60/70% of the charme, goes out the window. So much so, that the faux-tritium models, that have proliferated in recent years are, for me, abominations. The only justifiable hope, IMO, is...
