How is the ceramic coated?
Is the ceramic powdercoated or is the material black all the way thru? I know with PVD, if you you scratch deep enough you will reveal bare metal. What happens in the ceramic?
DLC versus Ceramic
The difference is color is very evident with the DLC looking like a Dark Grey and the Ceramic looking matte Black Thanks for looking...
Beautiful shots, Nad
What is next? Maybe a forged carbon Panerai to get 3 black musketeers with each one its own material? Cheers Luc...
Also the finishing of the surface is different
I feel ceramic more uniform and soft...its like silk. DLC is less smooth...and feels colder than ceramic. Agree with NAD...ceramic is just 100% matte finished. Great pics as always Nad. Thanks for sharing
VERY different shades of black/grey
Throw in a tantalum for further comparison: Craig...
Actually I think
that's precisely why it's so difficult to find the perfect strap for the 292... In a sense it's so dark that any strap w/ texture would appear almost too light in comparison.

The ceramic case is solid ceramic
It's not a ceramic coating like the PVD coatings. The ceramic is very tough and highly resistant to scratches, but you will see tiny hairline scratches after a while, assuming you wear the watch regularly. Cheers, Anthony
