Great Picture. How do you like your 524? I really like the look, haven't seen one on person...but thinking about getting one.

I love my 524. Maybe my favorite watch I own. I have a custom strap and buckle do in soon. Can't wait. Will post pics.

Very nice pair!

Clearly you have a soft spot for the Flyback complication. It is more useful to you than the Rattrapante?

Panerai seems to have updated the 524 with faux patina. If that's really the case than I'm envious of your "classic" 524

the 615's pretty cool - love the two-tone as well as the blue accents and symmetrical subdials.

So what's next?

I love the 530 - SLC dial is very clean and again, symmetrical subdials! I like the linear PR (I have the 233). The P.2006 mvmt is pretty impressive.

But of course you may be out for pure flybacks so the 526 could make the trio complete! The mix of orange & blue make for a very sporty look!

Then there's the 580 if you want to switch it up with some ceramic. I'm just not thrilled with the faux-patina, although I'll admit it looks better with ceramic than with SS.

There's quite a few if you include the older models with non-in-house mvmts - there's like 7 Flybacks in total, if I'm not mistaken
