Panerai PAM 520. A chronograph which goes out of the beaten paths.

Issued in 2014, it was available in platinum ( PAM 518 ), in rose gold ( PAM 519 ) and in white gold ( PAM 520 ). Here is my favorite of the three, the white gold PAM 520. I find the white dial of the platinum less strong looking, and I love the wink to t...

when it comes to watches "produced" by Panerai. You know these models leave me cold as an igloo, right? On a purely like/don't like, I like the white one. In spite of the "traffic jam" feeling that I get from the dial, I find it surprisingly...terse. You ... 

I think that...different

tends to be overrated. I love Panerai (as you know), when I feel the need for "different" I look at a...PP, VC, Breguet.... :P
