don't like them but don't hate them
I only do not understand why they made these watches. They are cheaper but the quality is less
a snap back is unacceptable for a diver watch, they always used screwed in backs and there is no reason to change that
I thought they wanted to go all the way and be a 100% manufacture, last years we only got watches with inhouse movements, this is an ETA again
I don't have any problem with an ETA but it is strange they choose the other direction again
Case and bezel are 1 'block' they used to be 2 different parts ( screwed bezel ).
I think Panerai does not sell very well anymore. They also made the 634, a similar watch but with the same case. The 634 is a paneristi edition and these used to sell like
hot pancakes, I believe today they aren't even sold out
A thread on that 'other site' got less than 250 replies while they make 500 of these. The 360 on the other hand ... 300 were offered be the demand was a bit over 3000
The hype is gone and supply exceeds demand, at least that's what I believe
A few days ago I was in London and as always looked at some watch shops, secondhand and AD
I noticed some AD had like 50 or 100 Panerai in stock, this is also something new. Dealers have MUCH more in stock than they used to have.
and a last thing, somebody I know bought a Panerai yesterday .... he got 17% discount on a stainless steel model.
17% was IMPOSSIBLE 3 till 10 years ago

Contemporary Panerai models.
I don't particularly like themt but I'm sure they will sell. Some will become..icons..years down the road, others will simply...fade away...
Don't know what to say. The Pam000 and the Pam005 fit the need why more
Entry level??? Not sure where the strategy is going but too much dilution will not help. I don't think they will win any fans - snap back and spring bars??? Bill
I got these thought from a fellow collector.
I don\'t really see the new models as replacements...if they are, they aren\'t in the spirit of 000, or 005. I think the lack of a screw on back is deal breaker for me. I actually think that the springbars are just fine...I have chewed up my screws and sc...
