Firstly a big thanks to Trusty time for a speedy delivery. Just over a week to sunny Australia so top notch service. First impressions are very positive. its a quality item feels very well made. The strap is soft and comfortable and that dial really pops with that unique blue. But I found the case material to be a surprise I was expecting the plastic feel of Carbon fiber similar to my old AP Carbon Diver. The material is much more ceramicic like. Similar in feel and sound to an old IWC TopGun a had a while back I haven't held a genuine so I cannot know if this is how they feel. Do any of the RWG community have any other Carbotech models that they can share their thoughts on the material composition. The case is also the first Panerai I have seen with Spring bars - This is sacrilege IMHO and i wasnt expecting that . I Movement. Well at first I thought it was buggered and didn't work properly. As mentioned by Legend it is not a OPXXXIV. When you pull the crown to what would normally be the date position all that happens is that it moves the Hour hand and the date changes at the top of the hour . You can go forwards or backwards with the date change . Its a bit of a rubbish design but I asked trusty and he said it works like the genuine P.9010 Do have a look at this video of a 1616 with a P.9010 to get an idea of how this bizarre movement works Overall I am really impressed worn it to the gym and shower and no issues. Though I think most people think its a G- shock rather than a $15k watch Cheers ST4
