In the Panerai World, this is Tantalium
And the more I think about it, the more I beleive that I would have been a delicious way for Panerai to think different and exclusive...
Well, to be clear, Tantaium Panerai watches are totally under rated and this is not just.
As you said, this combo grey case/ Blue hands is just sublime.
I had the 192, and I loved the case, but I hated this greenish luminova.
on the 172, this is less evident ( the greenish lumi is maybe more discrete)...
O love the feeling on the skin, this weight, this presence on the wrist...
Yes, Panerai should have believe in this metal, it's a pity.
And congrats to you, you have an original, exclusive and very interesting panerai!
Best.

All this talk about Titanium...What about TANTALLUM?
I have a PAM 172 which is the very first PAM I ever bought. I have to say I appreciate its look now more than ever. The grey/blue case and the blue hands are very sublime when put on a light yellow strap. Tantallum=Rodney Dangerfield of the PAM's...no res...
Its the Luminor case one should own, both 172 & 192
I have both and I don't bother to own other Luminor 44mm case.... great color on the casing and its like a worn out PVD with blue hands.... Someday it will come around and people will like to get their hands on it.... Happy watch collecting.
