Not sure what "exact same" you mean

I guess you mean domed glass and not plexi glass like the 422 even though also 47mm? For what it's worth, the 233 and 270 also have a domed glass that's like the 127/217 only that they're not 47mm but 44mm. My 270 as an example

Panerai super domed crystal — which ones?

 
 By: Ted O : February 19th, 2022-14:26
Are there any other Panerai with the EXACT SAME domed crystal as on the 127 and 217 models? I have searched and seen a number of models with domed crystals, but not what some refer to as the “super” domed found on the 127 and 217. Unique to these two, am ...

Thanks for sharing, I mean having the same/equal super high distortion effect as compared to other domed models.

Then the 233/270 :)

I love this topic.. because I was scared of plexi; I always looked for domed sapphire

As Sergio stated… the case seems to be always 1950… but not all 1950 have domed sapphire, sone are rather modest/flat like a 351. 127/217/375/203 233/270 311/317… other44mm chronos with 2002 movements 368 I know there are more but I forget… I just remembe... 

The short reply would be...

Every model that comes with the 1950 case, regardless of size and complications. The 422, the "lefty" 557, the 372, the 605 Firenze, the limited edition 375, the 351 titanium etc etc etc ...  

I have no idea as to what....

 
 By: sergio : February 19th, 2022-22:54
is the...super dome..(never heard about it before) but the 375 is the replica of the 127, only in composite instead of steel

This will give you an idea...

before I forget, also the 203 and the 267 have "super domes" ...  

Comparing the 127 and the 422.

The domed plexiglass of the 127 is rounder and higher. The domed sapphire of the 422 was - as far as I remember - less high and looked more „industrial“ (I hope you know what I mean). 127: 422: I hope this helps a little bit. Best Thomas ...  

Exactly!!

And the 127 is in many ways. so much nicer. I sold the 422 when I had the chance to get my 127. I liked my 422 very much but compared to the 127 it had no chance and had to go.

Yes, the 127 is a killer.

Pretty sure 127 dome is sapphire though, not plexi — which some say was an feat in itself.

You are completely right! 🙏

I just made a clarification above. This … extremely … domed sapphire crystal of the Fiddy is just gorgeous. It causes fantastic visual effects on the dial. Best Thomas

Correct.

Domed SAPPHIRE crystal!

 
 By: MTR : February 21st, 2022-06:08
The Fiddy of course has a domed sapphire crystal. I just proved it. Sorry!! The shape of the glass is so different from the 422 and looks so great that I was fooled by my own photos. Here another pic of the domed sapphire: 🙏 ...  

PAM617

The 617 was a 2015 Special Edition and has the super domed sapphire. It's like a black 127 "Fiddy", as is the 375, but the 375 has more of a tobacco dial. The crown guard lever is going in the normal upward position, it's limited to 300 pieces, whereas th...
