the 360 for the rest of the world
More and more I read comments that this 390 was made for the real paneristi around the world.
A year a go they had this 360 micro edition and those who got one were very happy but with only 300 made, a few thousand were not that happy
The 390 looks like the watch for all the panerisit. I'm not going to name 100 different watch forums but when you take all the Japanese, Italian, Spanish, French, Russian .... there are so many different sites and I think the 390 will become the Paneristi watch for the world ( not only the .com)
I think it's a nice move ( some call it gift) but one thing is sure, it is a nice watch and the price is VERY attractive
Now, 2000 is not a micro edition butI know quite a few waitinglists at the boutiques are already closed. So once again some people will not get one. But with 2000 and such a cheap price I guess finding one on the secondhand market for an acceptable price can't be a problem.
A lot of people still buy the 232 and 249 because they were unable to get one in 2006. So even if the 390 would be 50% above list ... it would still be a watch most Panerisit can afford
And yes,,,,,, it"s freaking awesome

Panerai PAM 390 Special Edition Live Shots and more...
Hi all I had a chance to photograph the new Panerai PAM390 today. I was able to get a PAM 000 and a PAM 232 to contrast and compare. Originally Posted in 2011. What we know so far about the PAM 390 is that is a Special Edition of 2000 pieces. This comes i...
Thank You Bill
Great comparison and photos that clearly shows the differences in hues and nuances . I know I want one BADDDDly. Enjoy yours. Cheers,dreamer
It is very subtle but...
It is very subtle but the combination of the hues and the applied markers change the tint when compared with a brown sandwich dial. This give the watch a unique personality and a place in the historic lineup. Bill
Hi Bill, thanks for the posting ,.
Trust you guys are well. Just love all the base models. wish there is a pvd next to them Regards John
Sorry I don't have any...
Sorry I don't have any pvd versions available to compare. I will do my best to get a hold of one. Best Bill
Effectively a very nice spécial edition.
I like the brown dial and the gold hands, I think they go very well togther. Best regards, George
Very hard to capture the dial in pictures
Hi George I have done my best to put some context with other dials but even then it is pretty hard to capture. I hope these pics inspire you to add another historic to your collection and I hope there are no changes along the way .... dark glass .... Best...

You captured the whole spirit
No watch is going to be perfect. But..... If you go down the list on this one you cannot fault it anywhere. Historic feel Basic movement old school Special edition to keep the edition special A nice production count 2k Finally a "gift" by all streches whe...
Sure, it is a nice beast. All the ingredients of a great Panerai are here.
Except the fact that it is available at the Boutiques only, which makes me smile when it is such a large LE... It seems that more and more, the brands of the Richemond Group want to favour the Boutiques... Not the ADs... But that is another tiopic. Thanks...
Ingredients def there.... trouble is no Londres boutique, so fingers crossed i get from
the EU....assuming Hellas doesnt crash taking Italia, Espana and Portugal with it...
Beuatiful pics Bill!
Thanks for posting this. I really like it and it's priced very well. Great comparison pics with the Zero and 232. It somehow looks like a 232 dial stuffed into a 44mm Luminor case. Just imagine if it also had the OP logo above the '6' .
As Nico noted all the ingredients of a classic
And a large enough run to make everyone happy and keep the bad elements away... Bill
Lovely photos
and the 390 is a lovely watch. It looks beautiful. Your comparison with the zero and 232 is really informative. As lovely as the 390 is, it has made me appreciate the true greatness of the zero. Out of all of the Panerai's I own (including the zero and 23...

The zero is a classic example of Panerai DNA If you are late to the game but still what access to beautiful Panerai heritage the PAM 000 is within reach of everyone. You may have to sit on the waiting list but you will land on one. Beautiful l...
Thanks Bill, beautiful photo !!
One of the killer is the 2 liners, simply the best !! Tuscanii
You captured the beauty of the 390!
I've seen other pics and realize its a difficult dial to photograph but you did a fantastic job. Thanks and congratulations!
All the shots in one setting
Some with natural light and some with a little support. But still then really difficult to capture this why I added the others for contrast to help better illustrate in your minds eye the true qualities of the color combination. Best Bill
You know I am still...
You know I am still a student of you photo skill. I think I have taken less photos in the past years than you in the past weeks. So I have a long way to go mon ami. I will be seeing you soon any way. A+ Bill
More pics from my side in one week than you in these last years? Wow! :)))
You may well be right... Best, Nicolas.
beautiful shots!
and that 390 is looking better and better... something about the brown dial/patina/gold hand combo... Thank you!
Thanks Bill!! The more I see it, the more I can appreciate the beauty but....
I feel that this piece has more of a feminine feel to it... Maybe because of the brown dial and rose gold hands.... But overally a great piece indeed Thanks again for sharing! Sam
Wait till I put some new shoes on....
Panerai has been doing a great job with the new vintage OEM straps but I like to play with some more rough military looking vintage ammo stuff. I have one strap in mind that took two years to get including a little piece of ammo in the buckle. It is alway...
I'll be looking forward to that Bill...
Strap can change the personality of the watch... And I've already can imagine what's gonna look good on that 390 Don't forget to post new photos with the strap Best, Sam
Wow congrats on your PAM390 Bill!
Your pics clearly show the beauty of this piece, and we've now got a new masthead picture! The PAM390 has a solid caseback right? Cheers, Anthony
PAM 390 Solid caseback the...
PAM 390 Solid caseback the hallmark of classic Panerai. Thanks for the masthead. Best Bill

This new PAM360 is gonna to be a "must have" as the 232 you have take for comparison... nice job;
Great post and report
Thanks for the post, Bill. I'm interested in Base models and your post is really helpful! Cheers, Frederick
For me the PAM 000 is the base
Once you start from here you are on the right track. You start at the bottom of the price curve but at the top of the history curve where price is not the determining factor. This is the core. Either you are in or out. the litmus test. In or out..... Now ...
wristshot
your last photo, the wristshot, is the best PAM390 photo I have seen to date, and it really captures what the PAM390 is like in the metal. unfortunately, what it is like is faux vintage, with a strong emphasis on the faux. I have to admit that I cant put ...
Great pictures - Thanks for sharing
And I must say some very nice compositions. We would love to see more from your collection. Bill
Great post and comparison shots
Love the 390, sorry I missed it when it was released.
I will keep my eyes out for one...
But I typically hate buying used Panerais because there are so many fakes around.
