Is that the 526? Don't see to many around here, beautiful.

conkers 28 February 2015 09:27 PM

Thanks guys. It seems the 526 is not too popular. I am not really a brand expert so not sure why this is. Anyone care to enlighten me please?

1st amg 28 February 2015 09:51 PM

I actually really like it, love the colors panerai added to this model.

Thanks Ben!! And thanks for encouraging me to join the 21st century with a proper smartphone - makes taking pictures and posting them so much easier!

Congratulations. It's a stunning watch. I think to answer your question, IMO at least - is the MSRP. That alone will make it more scarce. I've never seen one posted, or if I did, maybe just once. Doesn't make it unpopular, just for that price point, there are other brands, etc to consider. I love that piece myself. Then again, I love Pams with a little something going on. Base is great too, but for me I like complications.

Thanks everyone and thanks for the comments on the pricing; actually for a manufacture flyback chrono movement with separate countdown function, I think it is a reasonable price, although I guess it is a step up in price point from many models from the brand for sure. I think at this price point too, Panerai should be starting to think of slightly more imaginative movement decoration, but I only say this as a PP/AP/RM collector which are at different price points.

Congrats on a rocking piece! One of my first Panerai was a 212 and I find the chronograph Panerai models very sporty and look great.

Enjoy!

I am still wearing it 3 days in, and it has some stiff competition in my collection, so that is a good sign!
