Are there other popular launch events Patek uses? Finally, obviously this means the blue was made in largest amounts from 2006 - but I am curious just how much less black and white dial versions are out there - any guesses?

Just got a pam 000
Will upload pictures really happy!!!!!!!!!!

Not sure if it's been just me no longer having my 312 from before and not following the Panerai board as much as I used to, but surfing through the thread here and there - I've noticed that there's been a decline in Panerai interest or allure. Especially with SIHH 2013 with lackluster showing, it seems like the allure nowadays is nowhere near what I felt it was 2-3 years ago.What's the consensus? Am I totally way off base?Thanks!
