Don't feel bad for me
I've got my fair share of vintage Panerai. Yep, they are next to impossible now to get hold of. 15 years ago was a different story.
These dials are quite interesting and I'm always amazed at the craftsmanship that has long since been lost. The brown, splotchy dial was once jet black. It lost it's light fastness long ago. These dials were inferior with regard to the pigment composition. Yet still, the plexi is intact, cracked, but intact.

Happy 4th!!!
Here's to our love for vintage and a taste of the old world. Rad dial, 1950's, burned, brown and ugly, just the way they ought to be!! Makes the geiger go crazy! Scott...
Brown and ugly, I love that, Scott!

Too bad, indeed, Scott

Well, would you care to share some of your other vintages with us here? I'V only seen one vintage so far, and it is indeed awesome! Although if i really did manage to get one, i don't think the skin on my wrist would agree very much ( i'V got highly sensi...
".....with Panerai the dial is the star"
".......the watch to be totally different, visible in day and night like a beautiful woman. Contrary to what people may say, an intelligent man looks at a woman's face first and then at the rest of her. So with Panerai the dial is the star." Dr. Franco Co...
