I got my 8 day a few weeks ago and did a full wind. I’ve been tracking to see how much power reserve it can actually hold. It’s been running for 11.2 days (269 hours) and still going.

Just curious if anyone else seen similar results. I’ve read some users said their movement can go for 10-11 days… but seems mine keeps going over ?

So I have a 243J and I have not worn it in some time. No reason perhaps just because its buried in the safe and never the first thing I see.
In general I have always favored watches on bracelets but Panerai is the exception due to all the fun straps out there.
For some reason years later I am starting to miss my 233 (dot). I sold it for something else but I’ve started to appreciate manuals again and love the power reserve on the 233 dial.
Is there any reason not to get a 233 (dot)? I recall…

Thinking about getting back into Panerai.

A local jeweler has a rather limited 1950 case up for sale that I really like and is in good shape, but no B&P sadly. Explains why the price is 1.5-2k less than comparable examples that are online. I contacted my local AD and was told I can bring it in, pay them $450 and get a new copy of the papers within a few days, so checkmark there, but they can’t help me out with the box (maybe it’s because it’s a LE and has a special little plaque in it). Given the jeweler’s reputation I have no…

To Buy Without B&P or Not To Buy Without B&P, That Is The Question…

Magnificent.

It came in a large wooden “Limited Edition” box (very impressive). Inside the box is a rolled-up certificate (very cool), a key to lock the box, and an extra crystal. Nice.

Under the lift-out tray is 2 booklets and a white unmarked polishing cloth.

Here’s my question: I’m wondering what’s missing from the box (if anything).

What Goodies Come with a Pam?

Hello All.

I’m sending my Pam to Texas for a repair and a full service. [ Radiomir 1940 3 Days Acciaio – 47mm ]

OP mailed me the “kit,” and my watch is in the envelope, with a FedEX label on it.

Here’s my question: the exterior label (provided by OP) does NOT contain my home address (although the form inside the package does).

Is this something I should be worried about — my home address NOT being displayed on the envelope?

Many thanks!
