looks great Dalip. thanks for the pix mate.

how is it compare to a DSSD height-wise?

i have been "secretly thinking" of a 25 lately , i thought the Ti case will not be as top heavy as the SS version - hence the DSSD compario question.

i think the Panerai Sub will look beefy with a thicker strap

i would love a 382, but i have been told by both of my Panerai suppliers that they have all been snapped up by VIPs and big time collectors as soon as they were unveiled at SIHH... so it will be a no go for me atm.

Actually it's not top heavy at all Eric...much less so than the DSSD which I had to wear pretty tight but this can be looser. Sits extremely well on the wrist...Doesn't seem as high either when I look down at it on the wrist...raised bezel and all

I will undoubtedly be chasing straps shortly.....Ted Su divers come to mind

That is not a sub, it's a R.A.D.I.O.M.I.R. I couldn't figure out why panerai called it a radiomir instead of a luminor...
