Officine Panerai

Now I suddenly seem to have Panerai fever again, or rather, strangely enough, this brand is now particularly chasing me. After buying my used 127 a few years ago, my interest in Panerai waned a bit. To now fully inflame again since the end of last year…. ...  

Here some more shots for you ☺️: Best Thomas ...  

Very much enjoy these. Thank you Thomas

I wish all the best to Panerai, and despite their recent issues, I'm glad to see they are investing on the communication side in a clever and effective way. Looking forward to seeing your next purchase with them! Cheers.

I have the feeling that they are learning from the recent time or at least are willing to learn. And that they (now) really care about customers. During these two days at times I felt like a carp in a pike pond. But they were very nice pike! 😉 Cheers Thom... 

Definitely a charm offensive that was impossible to resist.

I felt like someone who wants and should be angry with their child or pet, which they love very much, because it was bad, but in the long run can't be angry… 🙄🙏

As you know the rule is simple: buy what you like 😅 If you listen to too many purists you end up only looking at very old, rusty, grandpa style panerais.

Dear Christian, I went for it! ☺️ Cheers Thomas ...  

Cazalea ...  

An definitely not “grandpa style”. All the best Thomas

was just directly more generally to some people that in the past didn't approve of any new modern panerai

I just bought the plainest, simplest Panerai because it felt right at the time. Cazalea

I have to admit that there were a few pieces that I liked in person.

...a lot of the rest was not kerned. It's OK, most people never notice. I notice everything ...it's a curse : )

What ref is this Luminor Chronograph Navy Seals? Looks very nice ...  

Sorry, I didn’t ask for the reference of this piece. It’s a new, still not “official” release. I haven't found anything on the website yet?

I got it today in Genève but with Carbon case 😍 rare/limited Edition 021/262

Not the best quality (sorry), but for a first impression. This iteration I liked most: Cheers Thomas ...  

Probably that is the reason why I would choose any of the models shown in the first picture. Thanks for the answer and best weekend.

I came for the Cathedral, but was gobsmacked by the Panerai!! Super post!!! -John

I am also still blown away especially by my new acquisition… Cheers Thomas ...  

This dial is a little bit like a chameleon. It almost seems to go with everything. So many shades of blue… All the best Thomas ...  

Wait until you go to Panerai in Firenze! That's the original store! Lots of history there, and it's right next door to the famous cathedral!

I have been there at Easter. 🙏☺️ See my other post. Cheers Thomas

What a fantastic Catholic Church. I visited 20 years ago and still remember it with admiration. Enjoy!

All the best Thomas ...  

...the Panerai's official functions are quite something. The Scala gig must have been fantastic. Thanks for guiding us through it

And yes, the Scala performance as well as the restaurant visit afterwards will remain in my memory. Thank you for your kind words ...  

I think you captured the texture of the cases quite well. The green luminor navy seals is an interesting piece. The 670 is a great piece.
