My recommendation for a nice entry level Panerai

There's been a lot of bad press about Panerai over the last few years especially with so called 'influencers' who constantly moan about how Panerai have lost their way.

Personally I think this is over the top and too alarmist.

I added this entry level piece from the Panerai boutique to my collection a few months ago and I would suggest it would extremely difficult to beat at around £5k.

Beautiful sunburst green dial, classic case and excellent movement. What's not to like?

You could buy a rose gold 231 for a few more pounds.

Thanks.

My photography skills are not great but its definitely a sunburst green dial (or as Panerai calls it "sun brushed green dial".

Congrats!

Can't wait to see some more pics of the dial under natural light! Been hoping to see some real pics of this reference as my boutique doesn't have it in stock!
