PAM986 Blue Radiant Dial

Love the way Panerai executes a blue dial. I'm surprised OP waited two years since the PAM689 to release these new 44mm 10 Days Automatic Acciaio PAM986. What are some of your favorite blue dial references.. Panerai or other ?

Nice!! My personal favorite blue dial is an old pam 168 as it's different than other pams made and I like the bimetal case



It's the left one

Congratulations and welcome to the forum! That is a beautiful dial for sure.

This is my favourite blue dial by Panerai (or Rolex for that matter )

Lol Brian. Every time I see that pic, I am mesmerized by that blue dial
I don’t know if it’s the lighting, but it’s a real beauty

My fav blue dial is the DJ2 Azure Roman.
Not my best pic. Lol

(Haha just realized this my 1000th post. Took 10 years)

Thanks brother! That's a beauty as well. Azuro Blue I believe is what they call it.

The difference between the 986 and 689 is similar to the difference between the 933 and 690. The 986 has silver hands against blue dial while the 689 has gold hands against the blue dial.
