Just wonder why I haven't really noticed anybody talking about the 10-day GMTs, while the 8-days seem to be one of Panerai's most popular watches. Is the 10 day not as popular? or just harder to find?

233 (8 days GMT) is used the first in house movement made by Panerai, and they're manual winding. That's why maybe this model more popular thatn 270, that used automatic movement.

argee1977 · 26 June 2009, 04:55 PM

Plus the 233 is called the 8 day due to vintage panerai's using this statement, but in reality it actually has 10 days reserve in it

As in the other thread, the 270 is nice, i just think they did a mistake with the pricing and the dial on the 270, that left a lot of people choosig the 233 over the 270, including me, i had the option of two 270s for the same price as a 233, but i chose the 233 because it looks a lot better to my eyes.

I also think Panerai have done a similar mistake this year with the 312 and 320, for me the 320 has flaws, the lack of an hour indicator for the 24 hour GMT and the power reserve being hidden away, i think people will look at the price and choose the 312 over the 320, because i can't see people paying extra for a semi functional GMT.

233 rocks bro! Even the caseback looks better IMO as there is no rotor blocking the view of the movement.

2x 270 for 1x 233 price?

rotan · 27 June 2009, 02:59 AM

I don't mind changing my 233 for 2 x 270. Anyone?

VazLube · 27 June 2009, 03:03 AM

Not even 10x of 270's!

brainbizz · 4 July 2009, 04:56 AM

rotan · 4 July 2009, 12:24 PM

Yes 270 has in house movt. but its a different movt. from the 312

VazLube · 4 July 2009, 03:35 PM

233 has P.2002 movement
270 has P.2003 movement
312 has P.9000 movement

P.200x and P.900x are inhouse movements while OP(roman numerical) are not.
