Incoming , entry level Panerai, maybe that’s what I need
Just got today my new Pam 754. Gotta a tell you that for the comments on the forums , complaining about the snap case, etc . I was wondering what kind of subpar watch I was gonna get. I’ll tell you , I can’t see a difference ,quality wise, with other Panerai.
I think all (or almost)my previous Panerai had a sandwich dial, so that’s something I noticed right away. But to me was a refreshing change for my eyes. Love the onion style crown. Other thing that helps to make this a keeper is it’s value if you ever want a sell. Because I been there, meaning you want a upgrade one of your watches and you sacrifice another for it. Well guess what my speedy and my Pam 754 won’t be first on that list because I can’t get too much money on them Lol . I know for some it might sound pathetic, but others been there. And if I know something about myself it’s that every time I don’t have a Panerai in my stable , I never feel complete. So this should put an end to my dilemma. Love the new boxes , the wooden box actually says Panerai in the out side. And the extended warranty helps also to ease out any possible concerns Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks great! I have the 753 and couldn’t understand the complaints about the case back either.
Do you mind sharing photos of the new Panerai box? I purchased mine in Jan 19’. |

Thanks , yeah I guess they were feeling uneasy about 100m water resistance with a snap case back. Maybe they do scuba diving with their Panerai, I don’t know. Sometimes we as WIS get to deep in our own bs. Don’t think comments were bad intended , it’s just the WIS bro that’s all Here are the pic of the New box and the 8 year extended warranty sleeve Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats! A beauty for sure.
Setting aside the back, there’s so much to like about this one and the 753. |

Congratulations for the new watch, she is beautiful!
I'm interested in buying a Panerai, what do you mean about the "value" why does this Pam has a better resale value? |

Thanks bro, Well It’s the opposite. What I meant is that because is because this is the 2nd cheapest Panerai in their catalog. So after you use it ; it’s value would be even less which in turn will make no sense for me to sell it, because is not worth it. Too little money. Flipping watches It’s a practice I used to do to upgrade other watches, but this watch is probably one of the last ones I would consider selling and therefore a keeper. Not to say Panerai are not worth it, actually they are, I keep coming back to them because I love them. This is just a new idea to help me keep it because keep buying and selling 2 Panerai a year is not a good business. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

45mm rads are plain cool. Enjoy, my friend, that one brings so much variety to the collection it'd be worth it if only for that.

Enjoy! I agree a panerai is necessary for me too. Is it easy to remove those lugs for strap switching. The black plastic pusher is about my skill level lol

Thanks , if you can keep one , I like the classics 372, 557, 422, 424. 47mm are the staple on Panerai, for me this 45mm radiomir will do, it’s a good looking watch. My first Panerai was Pam 320, I still remember it. Nice watch too Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
