8+8 = 16
After years of pursuit finding the perfect Panerai, I finally acquired my two grails: The Luminor PAM 233 and Radiomir PAM 190.

Both are beautiful in their own way and I love how they can be formal or casual with the right strap.

Enjoy the pics...

Great stuff, love the 190!

And the 233, of course.

As Panerai starts using their P.5000 movement more and more, I wonder what impact (if any) it'll have on models like the 190 and 233?

I think the 510 will make the 190 & 233 even more appreciated

Speaking of the 510, it will make for the fourth 8-day movement in Richemont's reign... unless I missed any... what kind of PR do the Minerva mvmts serve up?
