New Purchase

Very excited about my first submersible. The blue bezel is what sold me. Also the 42mm is a nice contrast from my 44mm luminor.

Nice pick up! I have the 44mm Submersible 959. Light blue ceramic bezel and grey shark dial. I also have the light blue OEM accordion strap. It is the perfect combo to go with the bezel and dial.

Very nice choice. Tired of seeing everybody wearing the same old Rolex sub. This is a nice change.

Thank you. My thoughts exactly. I was actually in the Rolex store looking at a GMT Batman and thought I would pull the trigger until the salesman informed me you can't order them. There isn't even a list you can get on for ordering one. LOL I found this to be lame and headed down to the Panerai store. I have wanted a submersible for a while, but never could seem to find the right size and color combo for me. Then the salesman stepped out with this beauty and it was over. Very grateful to now own two Panerai. Thanks again for all your kind comments.

I own the same watch and been wearing it for a solid year now. Like someone else stated, it’s a nice change from the typical Submariner. It’s a readable, useful, and somewhat understated watch, that keeps me on track.

Awesome watch, I got a 683 this year and love the submersible line. As others said a great sub alternative for those who want a strap watch and something more unique.

Does the blue accordion strap match the light blue on dial or the bluer blue on the bezel?
