I call it how I see it
I’m not sponsored by Panerai so if they sell models with cheap quality I’ll let it be know! I also have no issue testing it out instead of reading reviews from places that might or might not get kick backs... because well...... I have a relationship with my AD and others in the industry! LOL
Panerai has some quality issues. I have proven that between the crown guard roller not working and this 682 not being up to par!
1024 is a much better built watch. It’s obvious from just holding it.
If you like 8700 dollar watches with bezels that feel like they are from a plastic toy.... then that’s the watch for you!!!!
My honest opinion from my perspective
Since moving from Panerai years ago I had mainly 40-42mm watches. When they announced the PAM682 I knew at some point I would get it. So as you know recently I got my hands on it and LOVED IT! So I thought. What I noticed are a few things. 1. When alterna...
I though you had given this one.....
...a good once over. I can't wait for the flaws of the 1024 and find out the next model you'll "make a deal with your AD" on LOL

I have stopped buying watches a while ago....
and before that, the last time I bought a regular production model, I was still wearing sort pants I've had some 35-40 Panerais (I still own some 25 of them) and the only "tragic one" I had was a first-production-year 233. At the time I was traveling like...
40 Panerai's!!!!!!
That is a crazy amount! So how does that rotation look like? I can only have 3 watches at a time or else I go nuts trying to figure which one to wear!!! Panerai has definitely cheapened their quality in recent years. From the snap in case backs to single ...
Crazy amount? Ever heard the word...collecting?
there are watches that I NEVER wear (like the PAM341 Egiziano or the 115 or 117) etc. I just like...owning them
The 682 really disappointed me, too.
I was pretty excited for it--and love the style. But, like you, I found the bezel EXTREMELY disappointing. The AD also carried Blancpain, and, I've got to say, holding the 682 next to a Bathyscaphe, the Bathy just seemed like it was on a whole different l...
Yea makes sense
Blancpain is in another level for some of their models! Panerai will announce new subs at SIHH soon so we shall see
