The whole concept of these 2020 novelties escapes me....

Dear Nico,


First, thanks for this quick introduction on this PAM1108.

I feel this PAM1108 is more about the form than the content. Technically speaking, it's a great looking timepiece (indeed it's a matter of taste) but why the.....put this P.2005/T movement in it ???
For me, it's just a "show off" timepiece rather than a sincere collaboration which pursue an ecological sense. But i think i'm expecting too much from Panerai in this matter... 
The Submersible Mike Horn introduced last year was more coherent imo.

About the Luminor 44mm novelties, just a few words about the 70 years warranty.
Panerai offer a 70 years warranty with these new models equiped with a standard P.9010 movement while they offer a 50 years warranty on the PAM700 (aka the LAB-ID) which was purposely designed with a P. 3001/C, an upgraded movement which requires no additional lubrication, has only 4 jewels, and so on..., and which cost approximately 50'000 CHF.
How will i feel if i was a PAM700 owner ???  You own a timepiece which stands for innovation and reliability, then Panerai offer 70 years warranty on a timepiece with a standard P.9010 !!!
I understand these 50 or 70 years warranty are more a marketing feature, but i still feel this was an awkward move from Panerai.

Thanks for reading and please share your thoughts on these 2020 novelties.

Best 
Fabio

Made with Mike Horn's boat, in steel, this Submersible is a Tourbillon GMT, 50 mm case, with a Tourbillon and a GMT. 50 mm... Now that's not for everybody's wrist. 47 mm would have been more suitable, for most of us. But still, it is not only a matter of ...

Fabio, we are in total agreement. For the moment, the 2020 collection doesn't sing to me at all. I am looking forward to seeing something which will make my heart beat faster.

And we didn't speak of the Luminor Marina Luna Rossa! The date killed the very cool dial. A pity. And when you know that it comes after the Submersible Luna Rossa... Best, Nicolas

you're right about the dial of the Luminor Luna Rossa !
