Surprising that such an expensive watch is so easily made

What's that scraping tool he used to brush the lugs with?

Do they make Pizza Pies with the same device? Home delivery too?

Panerai Made essentially by machines and computer... And they tells us that few pieces are Rares and hard to product... Program your machine and do more watches Bro' !

I was thinking the same.. entirely machine made, designed on cad and milled with hardly a human touch.. even the oiling is done by robot.. The actually unit cost of production must be next to nothing.

It makes the whole exclusivity and limited production thing seem pretty contrived (as if we didn't already know that of course)

How else did you think they were made? By Italian elves? It takes skills to program the computers and then convince heavy-weight actors to wear your timepieces in public! Stallone doesn't come cheap, you know!

This also makes their watch easy to consistently and accurately duplicate, since that same CNC file can be used in any other CNC machine of the same axis anywhere else in the world.... Just sayin'
