Panerai is putting venom in my blood... I know it might be getting a lill out of fashion nowdays. But they are just growing on me. Now if only my slave owner would allow me to invest in one!!!  :Praying:

may i know why do u say it's "out of fashion nowadays?"

Trend wise it seems to be going back to the size of 42... but if you are like me then you don't give a fu*k about trends.. (altough im coming from the otherside.. love vintage so i'm oki with watches as small as 34mm :) ) but Panerai has Poison me... everything from the simplistic design to the options of straps

Is the "LUMINOR PANERAI" marking engraved onto the dial for the PAM372, while on the PAM390, it's just printed?
Yes, you r right.

Engraved/sandwich on pam372

Painted on pam390

Great review and thanks for sharing the information.

My only question is why did you say "plexi are easy to maintain".
I have read review commenting that plexi gets scratches easily as compared to sapphire glasses. What is your view on this. Thanks

Kind regards,
Wilson

The scratches can be polished out by toothpaste or other polish designed for the acrylic crystal.

One thing about acrylic crystal is based on my experience with the snowflake, it will easily get micro hairline scratches... sort of add to the vintage charm... :thumbsup:

I would choose the PAM 210 (Radiomir) over the PAM112 because once you start you can't stop. Damn Panerai virus is worse than HIV.:shocked1:  Further down the road you would want a model with small seconds hand and I think the Luminor case is better suit the small seconds hand.

A Radiomir can be dress up or down depends on the straps. Plenty to play with and second hand value is quite stable. In case you want to get out.  ;)

I would hunt around for a nice used ones. The AD here will kill you. PM me if you have more question.

Just my 2 cents
