Nice piece! I like that dial on a Rad!

Phil, I asked about the PAM 410 hands to Panerai and the reply I got was the hands are made of brass and Rhodium plated.

Some additional info I found on Rhodium plating.

Rhodium is a very rare chemical element, one of the five main precious metal used for jewelry and a member of the platinum group. Rhodium plating is used, usually on jewelry items, to provide a plate that will protect the underlying metal from scratches and tarnish, and will also give a shinny white, almost reflective appearance.
