5980/1A blue production numbers
This maybe a long shot but does anyone have any idea on production numbers of the 5980/1A blue? Thanks!
what to look for when buying used PP "complicated "
I ask because I am buying a lightly used, somewhat complicated 5170. I have seen pictures of the watch and paperwork and all looks good. I am doing the transaction face to face in the seller's office. (Out of State for me but I happen to be there next week).I have no reason to be believe that their should be a problem (seller is more than happy for me to come to his office) but is there something I should look for?
awesome...
Hi Guys... This is a watch you do not see everyday... here she is.. one of my favourates and this is why.. because for me it represents a lot of soul.... and demonstrates Panerais's Engineering Might and its ability to cater for the best......Mike Horn (a great South African modern day explorer, Chris must be pleased) started testing Panerai watches in 2001.. he planned a trip to treck the Antarktic and Panerai designed a special watch for him. it was AMAGNETIC where all the components would not get effected by the magnetic field and it also had special fluids as to operate on extream temperature.. Mike horn wore the watch during his trip and said at under -70deg C, all his sophisticated instruments froze on him with the exception to the Panerai ARKTOS. the Pam 92 ARKTOS was issued as limited edition of 500 in 2004.. after the first stage of the treck Mike asked for the watch to be modified to have the GMT function... Panerai then quickly modified the watch and sent it to him... hence
Some DEEP thoughts...!!!
I've now had my DeepSea for 8 days��And having worn it all day, every day during that time, I thought I would pass along just a few of my own personal observations of a watch that seems to polarize people more then most��When first picked up and held in hand, the watch demonstrates a incredible heft �� One that causes even the most ardent watch enthusiast to pause and exhale deeply��But once on the wrist, I found the extra weigh to miraculously vanish entirely�� I've heard comments from people about a Top Heaviness or Floppy feel when worn��But I must say that I found, in my case anyway, for this not to be so��The watch seems to sit atop my wrist where it belongs with no more movement then either my 1665, 16660 or 16600 ever had��In fact, the watch wears and feels no different on me, then any other Sea Dweller I have ever owned��And I tend to wear all of my watches a bit loose��The biggest issue people seem to have, based on what I have read, is the thickness��Now there's no getting around i
