I look forward to the "live pics"

I am a bit divided on this one. I am sure it will look very nice in-person.

It won't have the blued hands and the seconds hand makes the dial look a bit unbalanced.

But, the inner bezel ring looks like it will have a rose gold finish and the movement is really beautiful.

And yes, at only 12 pieces, it will truly be a grail Panerai. One of the rarest in the world.

Look forward to your pics.

Congrats,
Ryan

The anticipation is akin to when i was receiving my RL PLM, but in a sense even more greater as Panerai is a brand full of passion and i love it! Cheers Stephen

Suuge~!

Thanks Ryan!

I already own the 309 as well, so this is basically just a dial change. As has been stated below, the numbers will have the same patina as the 249, thus it will fit very well with the rose gold hands, ring and indeed the minerva movement is just about the... 

I should add...

 
 By: iwcfan2 : December 5th, 2009-13:37
That I like that the case is in titanium. Is the crystal sapphire? Will the dial have the same aged patina as the 249? I guess we'll find out soon! I have to say that Panerai, along with Jaeger LeCoultre, has impressed me more than any other major brand i... 

Some answers ...

 
 By: Sean : December 5th, 2009-15:40
While waiting for Stephen's photos, I can provide a couple of answers: - The crystal is indeed sapphire, same as the 309 and 322. - The dial has the same patina as the 249, which is not apparent in the product scan we've seen so far.

Thanks for the confirmation Sean!

 
 By: BluNotte : December 5th, 2009-19:11
I was informed about the patina too just yesterday. Not too happy about that, ( because then it won't glow as bright as a normal green pam) but well i guess i shouldnt be complaining and be feeling blessed instead, of which I am! Cheers Stephen

Lume on the 349

 
 By: Sean : December 6th, 2009-02:42
Perhaps it won't be quite as bright as on the sandwich dial, but I think it's more than sufficient...  

OMG!

 
 By: BluNotte : December 6th, 2009-03:49
Thats a beauty! Wow so congrats on getting yours! You are probably the 1st owner in the world! Glad to know someone else who owns this piece too! Why don't you share photos of your piece with us in the meantime? Cheers! Stephen This message has been edite...

Indeed a surprise for everyone, including me! Well, the shoes won't be something out of the ordinary, but definitely a fitting one for this! Cheers Stephen
