Which Cali?!
I'm after adding a radiomir to my collection. Whilst ideally I would love the 249, I have been offered a 424 or 425 - my preference I think is the 424.
I have a 562 Luminor, so looking to balance up my Panerai collection, together with a couple of divers and chronos that I have.
Whilst I am reasonably well versed on Luminors I am not that educated on the Radiomir - does anyone have some thoughts?

Among the Cali dialled Radiomirs...
both versions of the 424: the early one with logo+date (that has been modified almost immediately) and the present one with only the logo are the least attractive. The quintessential purity of the Cali dial should be left alone and preserved not "defiled"...
An education
Thanks you for the replies (especially Sergio). I will hunt down a 249. Regards.
The knowledge is there....
what has become AC/DC is my memory...hahaha There is also another recent Cali PAM448 which is worth considering, IMO. Is a limited edition of 750 pieces, with a P3000-3days PR-in-house movement (same as the 424). This model has a greater appeal than the 2...
