Officine Panerai

I own this reference, as well.

 

And I really like both the wearability of the piece and it’s presence. At one point, I owned a 392, which is also a 42mm, but it is in the Luminor 1950 lineup. While the 392 was much thicker, I actually felt it had less presence on my wrist because the dial was a bit smaller to accommodate the heftier bezel/case. This 728 actually looks bigger on my wrist than the 392 did (because of a larger dial coupled with smaller bezel and thinner case) yet I find it much more comfortable to wear thanks to the overall weight/thickness combination. I understand the loyalty to the traditional Panerai styles/uses, but I think some people are missing out on an opportunity to have a great piece that fills a different purpose in a collection. There’s room in my heart for both 😁!

Mine says hello, and thank you for sharing your beautiful piece.
