Who has Luminor Due?
Pics? Thoughts? I love the look of Panerai watches but also want something I can easily slide under a dress shirt cuff .....

I bought my Panerai 676 Due for the exact reasons in your post. I always liked the Panerai look but not the size, even though my 7 inch wrist can support most Panerai sizes. My model is 42mm and the thinner profile easily fits under a suit jacket and shirt. My everyday office dress.
The Due line brought new customers into Panerai, including me. You will not be disappointed. You will hear from the hard core Panerai fans that complain about its depth rating, lack of heritage, etc. To me, this is not important. Its a beautiful watch that I enjoy wearing in my rotation and have no plans to sell it anytime soon.

I also happen to have a 676 (best of the lineup, in my opinion.. given open caseback, in-house mvmt rather than the group ebauche..) and similar to what Jeff says above, it's a fine watch with no complaints. it's surprisingly elegant and comfortable to wear, as compared to the more conventional 44 and 47mms. I have those in the collection too, but they're a bit awkward to wear to the office...

Thanks much. I really like the look of the Due, I just wish it could be had with a metal bracelet. But it's nice to have so many strap options!
