Ah yes, a recent release…this checks all the boxes🤩

I love the size, small seconds at 9, and crystal. It’s basically a friendlier sized Fiddy. Honestly, on the website I wasn’t so sure about the smaller hour numbers going all around, but in your real wrist shot it looks awesome! Looking forward to more pic

You are welcome Armis :-)

It is also about time to take new photos, and happy to share my thoughts and photos. Here are the old photos (snuck in my Fiddy shot too 😅) Some of the nicer photos of my 360 here are taken by a friend who is quite a professional with the camera. Lastly….

Very interesting post, my friend. For me, Panerai = Big. 47 mm is the natural size. When I tried a 47 mm Panerai for the first time, it was some 25 years ago, and it was a vintage.

I wasn't prepared to such a shock. Way too big, I was thinking! The,, in 2002, I tried the 127. Same feeling. BUT after one week, I felt it was ok on my wrist. got used to it. No, better, addict to it. So for me, 44 mm is good, and the new 5218 is a perfe

Well put Bruno. I don't have a Fiddy but I do have a few other 47mm Panerais

My wrist is only 6.8" so these watches (673, 587, 249) look almost cartoonishly large, unless I'm in my submersible barreling underwater toward an enemy ship. But, oddly enough, they're comfortable ... and so beautiful that I don't have the heart to sell

You will never have my.....

vote, in favour of "letting it go". You know I've had more Panerais then socks. In time, some of the individual pieces stopped "singing" to me and I let them go. Although I haven't worn in ages, not for a second I would consider giving the Fiddy away. NEV

My 127 Fiddy

Thinking of letting this one go, only because of the size. Debating. Not sure anything really compares to the long hands and massive domed crystal. Perhaps a smaller Radiomir, thoughts on this possible change up?

Thank you, Armis — truly appreciate the kind words.

As for the Panerai that stayed with me… the ones that endured weren’t the rarest or the most complex, but the ones that marked the important moments. My 124E has been with me since my early twenties — it was my first Panerai, my first mechanical watch, an
