Panerai Luminor 1950 PAM524 Flyback any owners?

Thinking about this one...

I’m a Radiomir fan and my last Luminor was a 250 Daylight. Was big and a little too much going on.

Any feedback is appreciated.


Thank you

I've been wearing it for 2 years, in rotation with my other 4 watches. still loving it and I found it look best with the blue crocodile strap. the only complaint I have is it wears top heavy, I once dropped the watch when putting it on.

Thank you Rambo. Appreciate that.

Does it wear smaller than a traditional Liminor case, like a ‘000’

It depends.

Three-digit 1950 Luminor cases (like the 312) usually wears larger than the Bettarini Luminor cases (like the 000). I haven’t compared the newer, thinner 1950 Luminors (like the 1312) against Bettarini models.

Based on that, I would say the 524 probably wears larger than the 000. But, with Panerai, there always are exceptions, so, you never know....What I do know is that I like the 524’s function and the ecru lume paired with blue hand.

I have the 764

which is the same case it definitely wears larger then my 1320 but in a good way.
