Interesting watch, would like to see it in the 'carbon' before passing judgement...

Which is a form of camouflage.

I like it it but would prefer a less flashy blue, a darker hue and same for the lume.
Id really have to see it in the metal.
Also Id need a 44 sub. 47 is too big
Merde Alors! Et Vive Les Francais! :)

47mm?!?

I like Panerai (and I like this one) but 47mm?!?

and I don't want to hear that wears comfortable - that doesn't make it any smaller and just means it will be comfortable when I bang it into something

I really liked my old 024 and 000 at 44mm and would like to have another PAM one day, but not a 47mm PAM

Besides the stupid size, which is synonymous with Panerai in my mind, I like that one. Certainly distinctive.

She was 5'4" before lifting the box.

I like modern Rolex.
I like modern Omega.
With Panerai, I prefer older stuff and the more basic, hand wind models like 112, 113, 372, etc. the Submersibles, autos, and complication models don't float my boat much at all.

Was hearing about new subs coming out this year.
Kinda disappointed, no 44mm subs with in-house movts.

Still waiting for that 44mm 305 everyone's wanted forever.

Yup - "new age 243" but alas...

The mid-year releases blow all of these out of the water. And a high tech modern carbon-cased diver needs fauxtina lume?!??

I'm still missing not having a Panerai in my collection and since it looks like a 44mm 372 is not in the cards this year, I'm going to have to pull the trigger on a 590.
