Only a person who has 382 will say such a thing... they literally look alike

toulouse · 22 January 2013, 03:35 AM

I think they should have come out with another historic base model. Maybe a ceramic zero or 111 version. I would've jumped at that.

Travelller · 22 January 2013, 03:54 AM

...why am I the only one excited by the 364?

Fiddy · 22 January 2013, 04:05 AM

Hope to see bronzo in 44mm sometimes soon.

H2F · 22 January 2013, 04:08 AM

The 507 seemed like a cop-out -- slight difference to justify being released as a new Special Edition, but similar enough to hopefully repeat the success of the 382?

And still has a hard time understanding why an automatic needs a PR indicator?

Panerai has so many iconic submersibles, why can't the new bronzo be based on any of them?! Imagine a bronze 243 or a bronze Kraken(!!) instead of a bronze... er, Bronzo??

S`` · 22 January 2013, 04:18 AM

Think Expandables 2 and I'm not surprised with the launch of 507

Passionata · 22 January 2013, 04:18 AM

The small Rad is lovely!

Not sure what the connection is -- all the cast of the Expandables 2 wore the original Bronzo Pam 382.

When they see it... they see 382... they can't just re-make 382 w/o feeling the heat... hence making something that looks like the 382, but calling it something else is brilliant marketing... the watch will sell

Looks pretty much alike to me

psv · 22 January 2013, 05:16 AM

The only thing you can conclude from this release is that Panerai cannot really be trusted. The CEO swore there would never be another bronze model, which obviously turned out not to be true. Perhaps it wouldn't matter for many other brands, but since Panerai has a cult following that is on the passionate side I'm sure there will be many grunts about this.

No single model that really attracts me, the 508 looks cool but 47mm just isn't my cup of tea.

red1108nyc · 22 January 2013, 05:20 AM

I really hate to say this but these releases make me appreciate what I have in my collection more than ever. Hope for a better 2014 new releases!

IMHO, maybe it is "Alike", but still big difference - why 422 is selling but not 423? Of cause 507 is SE, 1000 pieces will be sold out before they show up in the display case.

HDHNTER · 22 January 2013, 06:39 AM

Being someone who would like to eventually own a 382 @ a reasonable price, this years line-up pleases me. I'm also thrilled I went ahead and picked up a 210 when I did. Hopefully next year the piece I'm waiting for, a 47mm base Rad 372 equivalent, will be released.

That's a bit mis-quoted; he said "...OP currently has no plans..." Ok, he said that sometime in 2012 and we could assume that the 2013 models were already on the drawing board, but who knows, maybe it was a last-minute decision by the board considering the 382's massive popularity. The dial's concept is no big departure to OP's other recent series (372->422->423, etc) so I guess it's pretty easy for OP to put it into production "at the very last minute"...

Having said that, I'm no fan of the 423 nor the 507 - but that's because maybe I need [some semblance of] symmetry* and while asymmetrical design is certainly not a bad thing, it's just not my thing

*That's one of several reasons why the 203 is and will always be one of my favorite PAMs

i dont know about 423 in NJ but here its selling just as fast as the 422 ,, how do i know ?? because both models never make it to the showroom before being sold

Trailblazer · 22 January 2013, 06:04 PM

Is Richie stopping production of the 372 for 2013? Anyone knows?

Psmith · 22 January 2013, 07:31 PM

If we have a 507 'PRonzo' this year, I guess we will have a GMT version next year...

leeye · 23 January 2013, 02:38 PM

am glad i have my money well spent on other watches, namely the Abyssos!

I'm with you on the Pam 364, I will get one if there is any around when released.

Totally agree. Love the 512. The only reason the date is on the 47mm 514 is so it's not exactly the same as the 399 (minus the plexi).

Anyone know the lug width yet on the 512?

Really glad to see the look from the 399 trickle down this year. Can't help but wonder if we'll see a base next year.
