Because you can always have a look on all the Panerai Catalogs, current editions or Limited Editions, you will never find it... Presented at the 1999 SIHH, this Pam 40 was considered by Panerai like a Test Watch for titanium cases. Will there be clients for this kind of watch? Will the titanium be good for these watches? A lot of questions, with no answers.... The 40 is the only Panerai which join all these elements for an unique combo: Titanium case, Solid case back, black dial, tritium indexes...You can search, you won't find any other... This is this unique combo which gives it its strengh and originality. The contrast between the light grey titanium, the Deep black case and the creamy indexes is simply marvellous. The proportions of the watch are ideal, not too big, not too small, and first of all, not too thick, which makes this watch very appealing to wear, as you don't even feel it on your wrist, the balance is evident, and the writing on the dial is perfect!!! One more word about the case back...At the contrary of the Pam 36, this is a solid case back which houses an ETA movement, reliable, and very accurate, that's exactly what we wait of a Panerai. It's made in titanium grade 2, as for the case. So, to conclude one answer to a question you maybe have... Which is the more attractive, the 36 or the 40? I'd say that if you can afford both ( be careful, it's quite pricey...), and that you're completely mad about Panerai, go on them both. I'd say that each of thes 2 watches is very interesting. The 40 because of its mystery, its perfcet and unique combo, the fact that it's the first panerai titanium watch. The 36 because of its brown and gorgeous dial, of its 4 lines... I think that one of these 2 are to be included in a Panerai collection as they are unique and true piece of the real panerai history!!!
