How does it feel, Chris?? That piece has brought many people back to the table. IMHO you can start and end your PAM collection with the 372. Welcome back!!

 It feels simply wonderful. For years we have been begging for a 47mm 1950 Base Luminor manualwind....and finally they produced it and even better,it is not in such limited numbers that it is unobtainable for most.Thats how it should be !! If you have the hard earned money and want a 372,you should be able to get it !! Panerai is supposed to be enjoyed on the wrist,it is NOT supposed to be enjoyed via a picture,on a computer screen, on someones wrist who happens to be well connected. This brings me to the point of boutique only models.No problem with Shangai or Beverley Hills or New York editions,BUT a 448 or 449 should be delivered to the ADs who helped to place Panerai on the map too.These should not be boutique only !! Then,look at the new release 47mm rosegold Radiomir.Have been looking out for that for ages,BUT 100 only and boutique only !!

Panerai have grown immensely popular and are selling quite few watches,they must however keep a keen eye out for quality control.....if they have too many comebacks like on some three days,early 8-days and the boutique special edition with the unfinished rough movement .....well,then they will shoot themselves in the foot.Anyone paying at the pricepoint,expects a certain level of quality.Panerai stylingwise ?? Well,they are PRETTY COOL !!!  I think the 372 is just marvelous !!

IMO,honest and unbiased,of course..."The 2 day ownership verdict on the 372": If you are in the market for a PAM(Even if your not too !!) and you have the funds burning holes in your pocket ( or even if you dont)and your favourite dealer is kind enough to pick YOU from the list of anxious hopefulls and you think you may have thought about the 372 at some time or another,even if it was for only 0.1seconds and you are wondering if your wrist is large enough or not ......its all time wasting !!!! GET IT !!! The 372 is brilliant !!
