Icon14 PANERAI first white submersible

So easy to wear on my 6.75" wrist, but it didn't look small i think the white makes the watch look bigger...

I like it. I’d consider one for my 6.5 but agree the white makes it feel bigger so it may be too large for my liking. The 1209 is max I’d want and that has a black dial. Any perception that it wears larger and it would likely irk me and be a quick flip

Take the pastries and run. 42 mm Submersible is like wearing a belt with suspenders. It just doesn't go.

i dont like the white dial, and 42mm case size has got the proportion all wrong, not what i expected from a panerai submersible.

If I’m not mistaken the 225 was the first Pam sub. But this is an interesting release

The stainless bezel on this one looks huge. Maybe it is the white dial playing tricks on my eyes. Anyway, check out the 42m Submersibles with the ceramic bezel inserts. The proportions are spot on

Really really nice. The white feels like I want to wear this and grab a beer while watching friends play a round of golf while I relax on a freshly cut lawn.

Love the dial, this would look amazing with a black ceramic bezel.
