Don't own one yet, but I have the itch, big time. Thought I preferred sandwich dials, but the more I check them out, the less legible they seem at low angles. I like the Luminors best, for sure.

Why is it called a sandwich dial?

I'm sure there are people here who are better for this than I am, but basically Panerai cuts the dials and puts the Lume underneath. It gives the dial a 3d look.
