Any love for 658?

[Sea-Dweller4000-Scot]

Really sweet watch.

Anyone had a close encounter they could share?

Thanks in advance

The movement looks awesome on it and love the size of the watch. I had recently got a 643 so I didn't try it on, but it would be a great daily wearer most likely.

nice movement, i like the tuxedo dial and i prefer the PR indicator to the "automatic" text of the 657.

not sold on the heavy use of ecru lume, but, if you like that, i'm sure this would be a great daily wear watch. i'm pretty indifferent to spring bars vs. screws.

I've always love the crown protector of the Panerai's,
but the 1940 style and the hobnail face of this is really really nice.
I might have to look into getting a 658.

Does anyone know if this exact watch comes in a ceramic case?

Only comes in SS and two variants in hobnail or tuxedo dial, with automatic or power reserve on the dial, all radiomir 1940 case

^ nice group shot.

for me, the tuxedo dial looks better on a busier dial like these with the hobnail looking better on a very simple dial (like the 643 ).

so, i'll take the 658. nice balance on the dial with the small seconds/GMT & 3 lines of text & date window & PR indicator, along with the 6/9/12.

The 658 was also on my short list, good choice, can't wait to see your wrists shots

What I meant was, "among those 4, I'll take the 658". No incoming for me.... But I'd be quite happy with one (and even more happy with Mik's idea on hands/lume).

I'm waiting for when they put this in a Radiomir case (not 1940). I would it if they would do non-ecru with silver hands.
