Here's a snap of the backside. Hard to capture with the smoked crystal (looks awesome IRL).

Nice! So where did you go since you were last a PAM owner?

All over the place! Mostly AP ... but I realized that HH is not for me at this point in my life (as much as I love the brand).

Yeah! I might add that the 441 is a fairly rare bird which is kinda cool!

Looks awesome. Congrats.
PS - Make sure it is insured against damage (and theft)! Case repair will run you the same cost as the watch.

Congrats and welcome back. Panerai has a way of calling you if you let it go.

What a great watch! This is one where the faux patina works really well with the Arabics, ceramic case and Asso strap. Congrats! |

Thanks guys! I really like this one!
Re. whether the material is fragile or not ... I've seen the pictures of a shattered case, but who knows what the owner did? Obviously I do not want to jinx it so knock on wood, but it is super robust and with some basic care it should not have any issues.

A few more shots. I LOVE this piece!
Wristshot on Micah's Brindle. The profile and the domed crystal are to die for! Lume ain't bad either ...

Thanks for all these pix, Serg. The strap combos are great.
How is the strap changing? Are the screws PVD? |

Thanks Cru!
The screws are not PVD. They have a satin finish but they are not black. They look like titanium (the case back is PVD titanium). The quick release system would be nice but too much of a risk on a ceramic case (I understand the QR system cannot be repaired if it jams). The threads are not machined on the ceramic. Instead, there is a cap like piece inserted on the female end of the lug holes. I have never handled a steel PAM other than the 233 so I do not know if this is the case with all the models that use screws.
