335... truly limited?
Hey guys,
Just got an email from the AD today that he received several Panerais - the 369, 356... but more importantly, the 335. From the pics and description, it looks like a release from this recent year's SIHH... and it appears to be the 270 in ceramic. Goodness - it looks beautiful in pics, can't wait to try it out!! What do you guys think of this model?

Ceramic 1950 case, 10 day mvmt, tinted glass Ti case back? Other than the fang power indicator, this is an awesome watch.

Joey! Yup!
270 in ceramic... Rare birds like the 317 but not Special Edition... Again...it's a lot of coin so as always buy it if you love it Joey! Since PAM is not PVD the movement, these will slowly trickle out...

What's retail on these? $20K? If that's the case, that's pretty reasonable considering the 270 retails approx $17K.
Am I off here? I gotta visit my AD.... my wife, on the other hand, may kill me.

Finally made my way to my AD - man oh man... the 335 is KILLER! $19,300 is retail.... what a great watch, we played with other straps and it looks fantastic in beige/brown strap combo against the matte black ceramic case.
My head is spinning as to what to do... there are so many great watches at that price (or combo of watches for that price). I took some crappy iPhone pics - I'll try to post them shortly.

Ap roo is actually not better in movement wise.. They are using piggyback movement with dubois depraz chrono module that tends to make your minutes hand jumps everytime you start or stop your chrono.. I would still go for the Pam for the big watch. Or for smaller watches you have an abundant of choices. Lange for one.. Patek.. Glashutte.. And so on..
