burnz Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 in case you ristis haven't heard, Panerai just announced the new PAM366 China Special Edition. frankly, i'm not thrilled about this. in fact, i'm bordering on the poor taste and lack of thought shown by Panerai in designing such a watch. and this coming from someone who's ethnically Chinese and i don't find this watch appealing at all. anyway, to each his own. i'm sure the china factories will be all over this, and maybe even come up with fantasy models showing other chinese characters. http://news.watchpro...0156&fi=112&s=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobster Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 not a fan either. it looks cluttered on the dial. they should have designed the caseback instead and just kept the lume vintage coloured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siesta181 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I wonder if the factories will be able to get the font for the "Fu" correct??? quite sure they will.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0lf Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I wonder if the factories will be able to get the font for the "Fu" correct??? quite sure they will.... It'll be the only cardinal marker they will get correct on the dial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I liked it at first, until the Chinese logo started looking like somebody pushing an overloaded shopping trolley! No offence meant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furu Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Anoyone who knows what the chinese symbols stand for? And yes Mickey is right, it really looks like someone who pushes an overloaded shopping trolley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jitai Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I liked it at first, until the Chinese logo started looking like somebody pushing an overloaded shopping trolley! No offence meant Hey Mic, Thanks for pointing it out. I did see a man pushing a fully loaded trolley. Seriously, as an asian. I think it looks weird though the thought for introducing Panerai into the china market is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prdubis Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I love the new strap collection, this one looks really great and I really love the vintage looking ones, as seen on ceramic Luminor... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicpath Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 really stupid concept, I think they just run out of ideas...what's next? Japanese dials. too fancy and girly totally against panerai image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiker01 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I liked it at first, until the Chinese logo started looking like somebody pushing an overloaded shopping trolley! No offence meant That's actually a Chinese Caricature of Nina Wang, HongKong's Richest woman.....I guess Panerai decided to honor her! Here's to her soul ! May she rest in Peace !

StormTooper4 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Shopping trolley that's hilarious well spotted MP. I think it looks OK and if it brings up the need for my panerai reps all the better. AP and Hublot bring out special editions all the time so it no surprise really. There a 412 on the cards as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Blimey its hard enough for them to get the logo right on a dial......I cant wait to see this one repped......I bet the Fu will end up being looking more like the character for Fu-cked up!

There a 412 on the cards as well I agree, but i hope Panerai won't become like Hublot, like 5 "Special Editions" by year with just a tiny difference in the dial Edited August 16, 2010 by HeadToucha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Anoyone who knows what the chinese symbols stand for? The symbol, "Fu", means "F.U." to the Paneristo who's gotta catch 'em all! In Italy, they call it the Edizione Limita Trampa Stampa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esco Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 (edited) Lotta hate and ridicule... Despite this watch being extremely unorthodox for Panerai, I'm willing to bet they're going to sell out regardless and also become extremely rare in the future. The high end ristis & collectors over in Shanghai and Hong Kong are going to be all over the 366.

totalwise Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 a overflowing shopping trolly to represent prosperity, the people's republic of china getting wealthy by peddling consumer goods all across the globe. Who would have saw that coming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
