Good point! I agree! Especially about the buckle.

Good points! You're so right about the clasp!
1. I can live without the movement engraving.
2. They should've done a more interesting strap.
3. They really should've done something for the clasp. Naturally, an extension of the engraving design on the clasp would've been preferable, or at least the word "PANERAI" engraved on the clasp in a more artistic fashion with the same black filling as on the case.
Thanks for mentioning!

By: patrick_y : January 21st, 2015-23:17
All you need to know about the Panerai PAM 604 Firenze. Patrick_y from PuristSPro shows you live photos and what's cool about the PAM 604 Firenze special edition. A definitive resource for the PAM 604. The Panerai 604 is a special edition of 99 pieces. It...

than in the press photos because I get a better feel of the character of the engravings with different shades of lighting. Hmmm perhaps we'll see a Purdy engraved Luminor (sans the hunter case like in prior models) for SIHH 2016? Cheers, Anthony
That'd be cool!

I've always been a huge fan of those engraved Purdey Hunting Rifles specifically for the engravings. But when the Panerai watches with the Purdey engravings came out, I just found it too much work to undo the cover to see the time. A watch with the engrav...
Sticker shock....

Was thinking about getting the watch and spending up to 12K USD for it until I just read the retail price of $18,800 EUR. I get it. It is a limited edition of 99 pcs and the engraving looks great. But seriously, I echo the same sentiment, the price of wat...
I see where you're coming from.

FYI, this Panerai Radiomir comes with the "better" movement so it would've cost more than 6500 Euro. But yes, it still wouldn't cover the total discrepancy you visualize. I totally see where you're coming from, but let me play devil's advocate and show yo...

if the case is positevly amazing, there are 2, rather disturbing, flaws associated with this piece, IMO. The movement and the strap/buckle. For such a richely engraved case, the movement has NO embellishment whatsoever!!! I would have expected some sort o...
