Panerai Radiomir 8 Days - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

This watch is for me a paradox in the collection: I am generally attracted to watches of a limited size (Maximum 40mm excluding crown), I am not at all a "Paneristi" at the base, I am more oriented Vintage (it is from 2021) ... and yet! I became attached to this watch for its "sandwich" dial, the DNA of the brand, for its 8-day manual movement (count no less than 100 turns of the crown to wind it: true!). Basically I could only appreciate this "cushion" case. Its size? Very comfortable for my 17cm wrist: the secret for this, the absence of lugs that would lengthen already large dimensions (45mm excluding crown). Let's talk about the crown: in the shape of a very well finished diamond. And finally it was the opportunity that made me take the plunge for this watch purchased from a friend. If I had to change something, I admit that I would appreciate a less imposing buckle, which is to say nitpicking! I find it very precise and very comfortable to wear with a slightly vintage look in fine and very beautiful blued needles.

My heart always beats faster when I see a Panerai. When I tried this Radiomir it went completely crazy. I was totally enchanted by the "patina steel" finish which gives an old silver look to the case. Super P5000 caliber with manual winding with 8 days of power reserve thanks to these 2 barrels: Otto giorni brevettato! It actually lasts almost 9 days. Patinated sandwich indexes on a mocha dial. 10 ATM. A double domed glass and blued hour minute second hands complete the set. A beauty in every way. A jewel.
