It is now final....But maybe not for all....
Ciao my fellow dearest Paneristis!
I trust and hope that each one of you is having a great start to the weekend, or simply enjoying it! Well, i am a VERY happy man today because i went through this....
Right in front of my second "home" in Japan....
Hmm, what could this be?!
OMG, can this be real?!
Is it just me or did anyone else notice the answer to the debate that has been happening recently?
NOT see-through, BUT Composite!
Now, i wonder if Luc remembers something when he sees this.......
Straight aligning OP
It's a sandwich alright.......
Ahoy mates! Setting sail on dry land mateys!
The mandatory wristshot for those Wristey's out there!
Relaxing......
Just relaxing with a sweet watch! What could be finer?
Thats brown alright!
The depths of the ocean has a new in-organic lifeform join in today!
Thats a 47mm Composite beast with a 40mm Platinum prince...
And just to quantify it, the scale that never lies says it all, a fantastically low 81 grams! WOW! ( Could this be the lightest watch that Panerai has ever executed?)
I have been eager to know what the dial will be printed with, either Marina Militare or Radiomir, because the outcome of this means something of highly significant importance to me and Adeline. Well we are very blessed indeed to receive the one with Marina Militare on it and we will be celebrating for sure!
Hope you guys enjoyed the shots, and many apologies for the low quality of the photos, I am no camera man, but I SURE AM A True-Blue Paneristi!
Have a great rest of the weekend guys!
Ciao
Stephen
Well, I don't get it, Stephen.
Panerai changed the dial, but didn't change the dial?
Now, that is interesting, and can't wait to have an official explanation from Panerai ( even if I know that we won't have this " Onore " ).
Anyway, you're the King, my friend, you got the watch you wanted, you DID IT!
Best,
Nicolas
As always, my ultra bullet train mon ami!
I too do not have the official explanation, but I have a feeling that some folks might end up being a little disappointed later on.
Indeed mon ami, i'm soooooooooo happy because i'v been getting all the watches that I want, and 2 of the hottest ones in a span of less than 2 months after all the tiring and oftentimes "painful" wait!
A beintot
Stephen
+1, hermano!
But I think that Panerai doesn´t need this kind of scandals.
I´m sure that we will have some few pieces with MM in the dial and more with "normal" dial.
Flipper times, hermano!
Best
I hope it to, Stephen...
But, happy because no a fleeper, certanlly a true passionate guy as you, got it.
Enjoy this marvel in the best of health, my friend.

Gracias!
Gracias mi amigo, y yo disfrutaré sin duda de este pedazo al fin de tiempos.
Ciao
Stephen
Congratulations
Very, very nice watch? I'm sure that in real life it looks even better than in the pictures.
Can't wait to get mine.
The delivery of your watch seems to put an end to the long winded debate about the inscription that the dial of the 339 would indicate. I am glad that this is the case and glad that "Marina Militare" is there, however, your post seems to imply that maybe all deliveries will not contain the same indication on the dial. Is this what you were implying?
This also makes you wonder why they took the watch off their internet site???
Best regards,
George
Merci George!
The watch is a silk baby in reality! I sure that you will love it as much as I will love mine! I actually quite dislike the colour brown, but this 339 is soooo sexy that im not really "seeing" it as a brown!
If you are early on your side of the list, you might be elated, but those further down may be very disappointed and yes you understood correctly by what I implied. Those will come with "Radiomir" instead. And while this will NEVER apply to me as i never ever sell any of my watches, i can imagine when those with "Marina Militare" gets into flipper's hands. You can imagine the war has already started.
As for why Panerai took the watch of the site... well it has to do with the fact that the Regia Marina does NOT ALLOW Panerai to use the term "Marina Militare" anymore, so they are not allowed to "advertise" it since the homepage is a channel for advertising the brand and it's products.
Cheers and hope you get yours, with the "correct" inscription soon!
Stephen
Twist
I wouldn't put it behind them. Guess we will have to wait and see.
Best regards,
George
Wait and see
Guess that we will just have to wait and see. Personnally, I would prefer to get one with the "MM" indication on the dial.
Maybe you should start a PAM 339 Roll -Call, kind of like what they did for the JLC TT Polaris, that way we would be able to follow who gets one and find out about the indication on their dial.
Best regards,
George
That's a great idea!
Although i am not sure if all are inclined to share with us what their catch will be!
But let's just see though, for now definitely with all the rage about this and the fact that the 339 WITH the MM is the original as intended ( when launced at SIHH 2010) one can't go wrong to get this, rather than the Radiomir version.
And even if it does end up being that the one with the Radiomir is the rarer one, i do have to say that for me personally i am sort of "sick off" it as i have one too many Radiomirs already! What i need now is a Marina Militare ( of which i got my very 1st one yesterday) and Luminor!
A beintot George!
Stephen
To many???
Stephan,
Is there such a thing as having to many Radomir's??? Are you feeling all right?
I was getting a little worried there for a moment and then realized that you "must" be joking.
Best regards,
George
Thanks for the concern!
Indeed, there can never be "too many" Radiomir!
Pardon moi!
Stephen
Congrats Stephan!
new and coveted watches along with a beautiful fiance..
Huge congrats...
I love the 339 but I don't know how much more controversy the OP can make for itself...
another situation similar to 292PIG...wow...but I guess it makes it HOT!
congrats on your MM 339 and enjoy the rest of this special year...
I am so happy Phil!
What a year it has been for me!
With all the watches, and the pieces and everything else!
Indeed a superb year it is!
Cheers Phil!
Stephen
Whatever the final outcome, As it is, it's a real pleasure to my eyes. Congratulations!
Stephen, I see that you´re the King! :))
You got it, my friend!
Lately you are hunting the most desirable Pannies... well done!
Best, my MM friend
Emilio
