312 Dial Question

I'm new to Panerai watches and I noticed that the PAM 312 model has layers to the dial. The numbers are a step below the black part of the dial. You can see the effect I'm talking about in the photo below. Is this the same on all Panerai watches or only the 312? Thanks for the help.

that is a "sandwich dial". some Luminor and Radiomir has it also.... the other type of dial is called "painted" or "sausage" dial

Do all 312s have a "sandwich dial"? Can you name some other models which have it?

Thanks for the info.

Yes all 312's have them. If you want to know all of the models that have the sandwich dial, you might want to visit Panerai's web site, there are so many.

Here is a side by side. Personal preference depending on the model. For 44mm Luminors, I love the paint!
