Update...
The 300 Mare Nostrum is a beautiful watch; the watch has a Minerva movement (the balance wheel does look like a big Minerva balance wheel and the 18,000vph is very Minerva), the price is approximately 3x that of the 339. And it's huge, 52mm will just be way too big on my wrist.
At this point, I'm not as enthused about the Mare Nostrum anymore, ultimately due to the prohibitive size and the cost. Furthermore, I really do have to see the movement in person, because at this cost, I am not too far from a Montblanc Villeret Chronograph with the famed Minerva movement I like.
Just an update about the 300 Mare Nostrum.
Live Photos of Panerai 2010 Novelties
PuristSPro's 2010 SIHH Live Reporting by Z3 Panerai 2010 Novelties From the Historic Collection Three Radiomirs 42mm in stainless steel (pam337), titanium(pam338) and rose gold(pam336), from left to right. All of them use Panerai's in-house P.999 movement...
Thanks, Jon!
These new Panerais are rocking my world. The 2010 novelties are even better than last year's. I'm super excited about several models, and still trying to digest everything. WOW. Cheers, Daos PS -- nice sleeve monogram.
Glad you liked them. I was pretty excited when I saw some of them myself...
Many aesthetically pleasant pieces this year... Jon (Z3) p.s. glad you liked my cuffs, hence the name "Z3"=)
Thanks Jonathan for the live pics!!!
Make sure you get some sleep if you can Cheers, Anthony
Thanks Jon for the great work
This SIHH is Panerai's best in a few years. Could you post the list prices of the 323 and 339 if you have the info?
Great Pics, Jon, Plus....
FWIW, I have always thought the Radiomirs, even the larger ones, were underrated as dress watches. I have always warn my 268 with a suit and, as far as I'm concerned, it looks pretty sharp... Best, Mitch
Live Panerai photos
Thanks Jon for the live pics! Will be interesting how Panerai will use that composite case material in the future. Regards, ED-209
Thanks Jon for the fast report...
The Jupiterium is huge! Any more caseback pics of the 348 & 365? Kong
Great Jon....
Thanks for giving us a full update for the people who are far away. alepos
I love the 339 and the 300 Mare Nostrum...
The 339 really floats my boat; and I am actively considering this piece. I've already gotten a ballpark figure of the "damage" for this piece too. The 300 Mare Nostrum is tremendously beautiful! The movement is truly fantastic, it looks almost as if its m...

i lost the ability
THANKS lots mate, i appreciate the work you've done to put this report up, and astonishing work by panerai , some pieces to love, some to adore, some to like, some to dislike. at the end panerai is leaving me emotionally drained i lost the ability to talk...
I've been waiting ...
... eagerly for some non-press release photos, and these are far better than a I had expected. Thanks a mil!
Marvelous photos to go with the report!
The 339 is indeed marvelous, and it looked like it just came back from WW3 ! lOL cHEERS sTEPHEN
Great pictorial summary.....
Didn't realise the Jupiterium was so big..!! On the Astronomo PAM365 won't the month hand cover the date window in March..?? Seems a bit odd if it does..!! What shame the PAM346 has a date window.. Other than that it was about as close to perfect as possi...
Outstanding Report indeed!
Thanks a lot for the effort and sharing. Looking forward to test drive them when they will finally reach our AD's (I'm in Singapore and Malaysia), but am afraid some may not see daylight as they will probably be gone before even reaching the AD's.... But ...
WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought the jupiterium was a desk top sized thing!!! WOW
Great live pics, exciting times for the Purists and site this week!
Great job!
Phenomenal report!! Thank you for the pictures! This year I must say Panerai read my mind...I love them all! A pity for my wallet...
Thank you Jon for this
report and excellent pictures.I think i will need a bigger watch storage box this year also, cheerz
Some thoughts....
Thank you Jon for your report..... Overall I do like the new models.... but I do have some reservations..... The 337 & 338 are great and the size, as you noted, perfect for a dress watch...however the lack of swan neck is not so good horological wise........
Great report, thanks! 339's a killer! But....
What's with that awful buckle on 336 337 338?? I thought they left that behind already! (Hoped they had)! Shame about the smoked black glass on 322 also, it's like when Tic Tac's changed their sweets to white and coloured the plexi box orange instead!! So...
