Simply, matt case with polished bezel and gold hands in the view of asethetics.
From my last info, probably, it will hit the boutiques around March - April 2011.
Check with your boutique near you to see whether they have any prototypes to try on.
But if you have been used to 44mm Luminors or 45mm Radiomirs, it may just be your cup of tea.. imho..
Overall, the 3 are elegant with OP's in-house movement of 60 hrs power reserve and manual wind.
Hope this helps..

Brushed Pink Gold case and Brown dial. It is going to be an elegant dress watch,, you bet..
Cheers,
And on another note, how have you been Daos? It's been way too long since i'v heard from you!
Cheers

Enjoy it, as i hope you will the 42mm newbie!

But be prepared as it will wear much smaller than your PAM 359 due mainly the Radiomir case and the matt titanium case..
When the titanium oxidizes, that's where you find the 338 a real winner with 'gold hands' and polished bezel.. You will be awed.... I believe you stil have to wait for it for sometime.. Hope the wait will be short...
If OP will come up with a 45mm or 47mm base radiomir with this case and hands, I will jump into it for sure...)))
Best and Cheers,
The most elegant and dressy Panerai I've ever tried.
Don't know if I'll do it in the end, but really thinking about buying a 338. 42mm is GREAT!, and the Piaget movement is a fantastic upgrade for these beautiful timepieces.
Time will tell.
