I have been after this one.....
for a long.....LONG time now. I finally bagged it at...almost....favourable conditions... I'll have to clean it up a little, I think. Cheers - Sergio...
That is a superb catch, Sergio.
You'll have a part of the Panerai history with this 36, as well as a part of the Pre Vendome Saga, too. Congratulations, my friend! Nicolas
You had a big part.....
in this acquisition, my friend. I was already interested in this...odd man out....of the Special Editions. This unique piece that didn't get the attention of other pieces (maybe due to the titanium or the ETA movement, instead of the precious Rolexes or A...
Thanks for your nice words, Sergio.
Let's say that it is an inspiring watch! Best, Nicolas
Ciao Nicolas.....
while changing the strap (I borrowed the original from my 56C) I noticed that the 36 has an A type two screws buckle. Sure this baby is a B and only the buckle is...atypical? Cheers - Sergio
This is a detail I don't remember, Sergio.
As I never wore the OEM strap and buckle when I owned the watch. I put it on several proto straps, which were much nicer and of better quality. Do you have some pics of the titanium buckle to share? Best, Nicolas.
For the moment.....
A couple of impromtou pics. Tomorrow morning I can get better ones....I'll get you one with the buckle disassembled.. Cheers - Sergio...
The plot thickens.....
apart from the buckle, identical to the one of the 1A...... I've noticed that the tritium on the A1 and 36 is "creamier" than the one on the B models, which is greener..... the 1A and 36.... 22B and 26B Call me Sherlock Holmes... ))) Ciao - Sergio...
Thanks Sergio! Indeed, my 36 also has
a fuller, creamier markers and shows a aged patina than my pam 2! Good eyes there! Mech....

Heyy Sirjo... I was away from this forum for 3 days and now I saw this....
My jaw dropped when I first saw this post... Such a great catch Sirjo... And I started to wonder if you ever gonna stop... But I guess not anytime soon! This makes a great appetizer for your upcoming 339! Then, it would make a great trio with your 217! I'...
