Much debated but I love it.

Not to everyone's taste but for myself I love its Art Deco vintage look. Each time it's on my wrist, come to my mind Lawrence of Arabia, The African Queen, The English Patient...

I completely understand where you are coming from on the looks. It is so different from the norm when it comes to Panerai but it has a lovely classic (and classy) look to it. I look forward to seeing this one in the flesh.

Best pic I have seen of it and I like the description of your feeling.

This watch has his own magic I guess. Enjoy it and I am happy to see more of it soon.

Very nice indeed, even if it' s a " No Panerai " Panerai

But the " art déco " style is so délicious !

For my taste....

they have churned out horror after horror, after travesty, after monstruosity, over the last few years. This is one of the best "made by Panerai" model I've seen in a while. This one has, at least, the chance to become A PANERAI, in a not too distant a fu... 

Very well said, Sergio! [nt]

I love this version of the dial than black (black is equally good but just my preference)... i see debates on 'historic connection' - i don't think it matters, it is a dial that is simple enough & has an uniqueness - that itself is good enough. good choic... 

One of the nicest Panerei i ever had seen. Exactly my taste!

What a great time piece. Didn’t know they have these kind of Art Deco models. Looks great

They don't have this kind of...Art Deco models.

the 790/791 are the FIRST TWO of their kind. It's like the first...Cellini for Rolex (when they produced it)

Beautiful watch.

I know it departs from traditional Panerai scheme but I love it anyway. Specially this creamy dial version with the bronze minutes track. Presently Looking after mine! Lol! Absolutely agree with our dear friend Sergio comments! Lovely Panerai! Enjoy it in... 

I have to admit I have never been a fan of panerai
