Very interesting vintage article on panerai
Related to some of the sihh releases. (685/687)
https://perezcope.com/2017/02/08/vin...tion-purposes/ This guy has ruffled a few feathers but he appears to be spot on with most all of his points. However, in the world of vintage and missing documentation, no one can be 100% certain.

I'm not much of a Paneari fan, but I appreciate the technology and history of the brand.

Regardless, I think the 685/687 are stunning watches. Pondering one myself.

I like the design obviously. Would love to own one this year, but likely not in the cards. Bad timing for me.

Hi jose, this is Gabriel. I just registered on this forum, been meaning to do that for quite a while. I saw you're on it. A big big thanks again for your support on the 6152/1. I've become quite a regular on your homepage, serious research. Hope to meet live one day.
Best Gabriel (tropic321) |

Just received my 687 this week and is way beyond busy at work to properly take some pictures or even wear it. I did peak inside the box and the watch dial is pretty cool and different. It is quite different. I have been out of the watch game for awhile but thought this was a great watch to get back in. I'll take some pictures next week after my business trip.

I must say you did an excellent work in sorting out the historical accuracy and the technical relevancy of these vintage Pams. There is real passion there for sure. ![]() I know you may show no love for the 721 but I had placed an order for the 721 because I love the anonymous dial and the fact that it really was used during WWII. Please continue to invest time and effort with your excellent articles as they are a treasure pool for any Panerai aficionado! |
