The ULTIMATE Panerai | Watchfinder & Co.
•Jun 18, 2021
Watchfinder & Co. presents:
Some of you may know already that I’m a bit of a fan of Panerai. I’ve owned a 312 and a 177 and I still miss them both. It’s a brand that’s very difficult to explain; like marmite, it goes well with toast, and as you well know some people are a fan of toast, and some people are not. So, it’s not always so easy to determine what makes a watch like a Panerai so appealing, but yet it is a breeze to see why someone might think otherwise. On the basis that this is making no sense whatsoever, here’s five reasons why the new 1135 from Panerai is my favourite yet.

Makes any one of these 8-day models from $3,900 to $8,900 seem like a bargain, even the sapphire case model.
