PAM 422 Has Arrived

Here is my new 422. I must admit it doesn't have that special something the 372 has. It's not bad though.

422 has a little something special that 372 doesn't have ... power reserve indicator. :)

Well, it's missing gouges on the crystal, right? ;-)

More seriously, congrats. Looks great!

Looks great on you! Hopefully you have some of your favorite 26mm straps saved from the 372?

Yes, no gouges are a big plus!

Congrats. I am a sucker for the sub second dial so that's why I would go with the 422. The 423 is a bit too busy for my taste with the power reserve on the front.

Great choice. I always preferred the 422 to the 372. Sapphire crystal, second indicator an all around great watch.

Congrats!!!
The 422 is my favorite Panerai
I don't think it takes a backseat to the 372 at all
The sapphire, second hand, and PR are huge advantages in my book

I agree. They are so similar yet so different.

Congrats... For me the seconds dial and the power reserve make it more desirable than the 372..
