Dive pics of the Pam 661 Carbotech. Carbotech is very tough.

Some fresh water dive pics along some bridge piers yesterday. I managed to bump the side of the case along the pier stones and never left a mark. The Carbotech is extremely scratch resistant.

One of those moments with a new watch on a dive where you think you had to have put the first scratch/gouge on it. It was hard enough hit that I would have surfaced if I had a Submariner on my wrist to assess the damage. I checked back at my truck and didn’t see anything to my amazement. Then I went home and got the loupe out and not one mark. Honestly, I am amazed how scratch resistant the Carbotech material is. Every bit as hard as ceramic from what I can tell.

Do it. Panerai embodies the luxury Big Black Watch with the exotic materials. I followed this one for a year before I purchased the 661 Carbotech. They never come up for sale on the forums so I had to go through our trusted seller. Its got swagger for sure.
