The 72 is nice but personally I find it to be a bit "small" at 40mm ;-)

I agree. It would be great had it been 44 mm like the PAM00250, but the Zenith Movement......

Worst of all, he is also offering me (choose one) a selection of chrono like the PAM00052, PAM00168 or PAM00187 because he knows I am looking for a chrono (tri-compax).....

digitax,

Not too sure as we have never discuss prices. I would expect it to cost upwards of USD 7,000. Basically my friend is what we call an 'enabler'. He is there to 'poison' you to get the watch or one of his watches. I know that at the moment he is a tad disillusioned with the way Panerai is going hence his 'willingness' to sell one of his watches. However in saying that, he has only made the offer to me and no one else. I believe his Panerai collection at the moment stands at about 40+ watches, some double like the PAM00072.

USD 570 with extra straps and spring-bars (above and beyond the 2 sets of spring bars from MKII) . Preloved but unused with no scratches. Was equally surprised to find it. Have always wanted to get one but held back because hit and miss with homage watches (although MKII comes with very good reputation and recommendations) and I am a very hands on person, more so watches above USD 500. So it was great to be able to see and handle the watch before buying it. Great homage to the original issued in 1953. I love the 3,6,9 and 12 dial. The difference is the bezel does not have the lume on the 15, 30 and 45 minute markers, it does not have the acrylic on bezel and the crown is different. Of course the Arabic hour markers is also thinner and the font for the minute markers is different.

I missed out on the TR1000 order and this is the next best thing until the new Stingray/ TR comes out.

The original.




Just checking, do u have intention to send it for cleaning or u wanna keep it that way. I know some do wanna keep it original.... just a matter of personmal preferance... I clean all my vintage... but sometimes it's too complicated the job, probably need to goood jeweler to do it.. any recommendation?
