Love the case, fair dial, bad caseback...
It's a dive watch. It needs a solid back.
Pam 305, a real new Submersible
With the Egiziano, this is the good surprise of this year. The interesting thing is to have combined titanium and the 1950 case in a Submersible. I was surprised to know that it was a 47mm case, as it doesn't look so big, in real. The bezel is not new, as...
All is here but I would like
to see a manual winding movement inside so this one will not have passing grade on my class :0)
High five Damien!
Are you a hand-wound only Purist like me?! Well if you are i definitely didnt know that till now! Cheers! Stephen
I feel the same, much prefer the 12 and 6 arabic
on the dial. however, my opinion may change... until i see the real piece great caseback and movement nevertheless
Interesting point about the index
Because it deals with one of my grails, the 2533! Well, even though Panny didnt do that this year, they might in the future! You can already see them doing that for this one! A nice piece nonetheless, just wished that it was remontage manuel! Then i would...
I love it as is.
I also like the 2533 design but that would be more of a special edition. I love the 1950 case, no magnifying bubble, the simple batons, the extra power reserve, the large seconds dial, the use of Ti to offset the 47mm size. It's a great watch. I think it ...
Exactly, which further hampens your position.
Essentially you say "Don't all Panerais appear as dive watches?" Clearly not - most Panerais do not have rotating bezels, many don't have movement indicators, and there are a whole slew of other requirements for "dive" watches. Nonetheless, I think you wo...
I had my reservations for the baton markers....
Clearly, it didn't 'speak' to me when I first saw the pictures. Now that pictures have been re-posted time and again, I am beginning to gather a sense of acceptance on these baton markers. Arabic numerals (3,6,9,12) are like a 'trade mark' to Panerai dial...
OH yes......one last thing that I've left out on the 305
I would really like this to be a T- dial!!!!!
My thoughts...
This watch is really interesting, indeed, because.. 1º - It don´t has a magnifying bubble for the date... Well done... I don´t like this bubble in Pam models, it always disturbs me. 2º - The movement has 3 days power reserve. This movement, I think, is lo...
Tempting, eeeh?
The good thing is that this is not a LE and we have all the time to think about it... And to weight the Pros and the Cons... Best. Nicolas
