New 1122 Guillame Nery Edition
Celebrating 70 years of Luminor with 70 watches with a 70-year warranty for $18,900 each.
44mm DLMS Titanium Case with recycled PET strap and white rubber strap. Limited to 70 pieces. Sandblasted laser sintered titanium finish, cool modern dial color and DLC back with engraving. :thumbsup: Rubber bezel and crown covering.....??? “Featuring” the now infamous P.9010 movement. :chuckle: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...502383c644.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...78b68452c8.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d265df69b7.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...6402133cc7.jpg |
Any pics of the movement?

No, but I found this “live” photo: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...f87340ed18.jpg |
That would be the Gen 2 P.9010.
On a cosmetic theme, rubber bezel is a odd choice as they don't always age well. Its not a Submersible and no one is gripping it so why rubber? |

I'd rather take the 1662. Carbotech bezel ,flat black dial and quick strap change mechanism.

I like it....except.
Rubber bezel and crown will be problematic with aging. Stop with the “limited editions”....especially of 70. Guillame Nery is great and all, but will that drive much needed buzz and demand?? Build them....keep the numbers low for sure, but the LE business is so tired because it actually proliferates the lineup regardless of only being 70. Replace an older model with this, no rubber, and don’t LE it, but keep the numbers low but open like the old days. |
No doubt, this is great.

I think it look great but the 70 year warranty engraving on the back is a bit naff

Not feeling it, especially at that price
Looks like several recycled material put together in haste imo. Agree with JonaG about the case back engraving. Lol |

Looks like it, yes. “Free of charge”, if you pay the initial higher price. ;-) |

I follow Nery on Instagram, more often than not, when the watch he is wearing is clearly visible, he wears a 1389. Even today on IG, he's diving in one.
I realize just because a watch has your name on it, doesn't mean you have to wear it, but i figured he'd wear the super expensive one they put his name on. Submersible Chrono Guillaume Nery Edition - 47mm PAM00983 |

1662 doesn't have quick change strap mechanism
Quote:
Panerai is aware of this (I told the concierge), so should update at some point (I'm surprised they haven't updated yet, they finally put the correct picture of the back of the 1075 on the site that had been missing, but they haven't gotten around to this). I actually prefer the traditional screw system, seems like less things to break (although I have a Panerai with the quick change and it is convenient :-) I haven't tried the spring bar system though, some people really like that. But I digress... It's odd, the picture on the site for the 1662 with the quick change doesn't look like it was manipulated, I wonder if they originally did employ the quick change with prototypes/demos and in testing it didn't pan out so they changed it (or changed it to be consistent with the other recently introduced models with new materials) |

1662 screw system comments
I half expected the 1662 actually had the screw system, since the pictures of the 1117 (made out of the same DMLS titanium) show the screw system, but I really had no expectation one way or the other. I figured I'd get what I'd get.
I've already changed the strap on the 1662 once, and it seemed easy enough. The watch looks nice and clean without the little button on the lug too. I don't know how scratch resistant the DMLS Titanium is, but using the standard Panerai supplied screwdriver, I didn't have any trouble. Your (and my future) mileage may vary. However, I recognize it's a lot less stressful (and faster) to change straps with the quick change system. Anything is easier than changing the strap on a Radiomir though... Actually, today I found out Panerai refers to what I've been calling quick change as the “interchangeable strap system”. They actually have yet another strap changing mechanism on the Luminor Due models they call “quick release”, just to add to the confusion. (I don't have enough posts to post links, but Panerai's web site has a page how-to-change-a-strap that shows the different systems) |
The 1122 is a screw driver change. I've changed straps a few times already, pretty quick and easy... and although I haven't tested whether it would scratch obviously, the DMLS Titanium feels a bit safer than polished steel would be

nice, but not almost 20k nice....imho
