Watchmeister Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 Oh what the heck, throw in a tourbillon or their crappy depth gauge. On a serious note if Panerai is determined to sell more and more expensive units I would be focusing on more unique materials.
GreenHornet Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Count me in with the Pam lovers, this one is Total winner in my book. I would by the rep in a heart beat.
tabularasa415 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 I like classic PAMs, of what PAMs I do like. I own a rep 063c (EL, all that) and a 005 for their clean looks and wrist presence (and for something not Rolex which is pretty rare in my lineup). But these newer PAMs are looking more and more refined and they're losing something -- a certain je ne sais quoi. It reminds me of my love affair with BMW. I have 4. A 1982 5 series, and 1985, 2004 and 2007 3 series. The older the car, the less refinement and the more it feels like a BMW. I drove a 2012 528i when the '04 was in the shop getting worked on and while the gadgets were awesome, the car's handling was pathetic and it had no performance as she was powered by a 2.0 liter turbo 4 banger. My point? Both Panerai and BMW had a certain rawness in their DNA that made them distinctly unique, and both seem to be suffering from a little too much recombination with the other brands out there.

hambone Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 Sorry, this Pam is not my taste. Thje font is insipid and weak, the bezel is also insipid and weak, in fact, the entire Panerai company is insipid and weak for releasing this wholly unattractive time piece. They should all drop and do 200 pushups.
tanya Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 I'll take my Bomba any day or a gen dssd over this poopfest
rickdangerous Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 It's... ok I guess. Not my cup of tea. Maybe it will grow on me but for now it doesn't feel like a PAM at all.
ubiquitous Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 That's a great looking Chanelerai! Must have made it for the guys who like the J12 but don't want to be seen wearing one...
