What you all Panerai experts think?

But I thought the 224 is full polished case. Is there another Daylight Firenze model that has brush/polish case? Different year?

[Guest Sql_pl]

what a joke with that black datewheel and datewindow positioning....

[babola]

No cigar...not even close

And I was soo looking forward to this one

I think its is polished like the 196 , im not sure if the pushers were polished as well, its a nice looking watch , it would be nice to get the collection

Not sure if the DW is black or Blue, though it certainly looks to be more sunken than the other 7753's

[babola]

The DW should be dark blue, a shade darker than the dial.

The gen 224 case is fully polished including the chrono pushers, except for the slanted brushed ring area on the caseback and the CG lever, both of which are brushed.

yay, another FAIL for the factories ...and i was so looking forward to them repping the 326/327

and wtf happened to the DW? not only does it appear sunken, but also totally off (not like the "hairline" discrepancy of other daylights)when it comes to its position

dont forget the "exact" copy of 7753...which was established a while ago IT IS NOT!

im guessing their slogan is "1 step forward 10 steps back"

I think it is still a nice looking dial, but since I've also got a modded DSN 228 (well now only the dial and caseback are still DSN parts ) I would want my 224 dial to match it in colour and finish.

[colorao]

The Dw must be blue dark, look this picture this is the watch that buy the chinese builder, it send me Toro some time ago.

The most difficult is to do the same colour of dial, is difficult to describe, but not is purple like the replic that they sold us time ago, is like electric blue with yellow/green numbers, i have 229 gen look this.

And I hope this time , they will do the caseback correct and don´t write PANERIA like the last time

sooooooooo, is this the version they are currently offering or is it from some time ago?

Neither mate, that 224 on the colorao's photo is a gen

That Gen vs Ulti vs DSn review you did was awesome

[PeteM]

I think we hoped for more but its still better than we had....

It will be interesting to see one from a members pics...even Andrews aint great and the CG lever looks terrible for a sales shot !! Given the feedback I know he has had.

[Guest Sql_pl]

It looks like it is Officine Paneria again...

[veyron]

I actually don't see the problem, you cannot even see on the gen pics if the datewheel is black or blue, same goes for the rep. Also the datewheel has the same height as the 236 etc, and on the rep vs gen revieuw it looked oke. The dial looks very close to me, also the color of the dial which is the most importand on this model. the lever can me modded easily. Should they do the paneria engraving on purpose?

[PaulVanDyk]

and the question is....who is gonna take one for the team?

Really? Maybe some of us need glasses then

Gen

Rep

I really think 250/236 is the only way to go on these new daylights. When you look at 188, 251 or this new 224 - you can easily spot how date window is just not right.
