Hacking is such an over-rated feature, and there are many watches way above this Panerai price-point that don’t have hacking, including some Vacherons and Pateks. There are technical reasons why hacking isn’t always the best for the wear and tear on certain movements, but also, even the best mechanical movements in the world can lose a second or two a day, and so your hack is lost very quickly anyway.

I just got one , I find I have to turn it few times to change date. Does it normal?

Excellent video and production quality

Additionally, thank you for making this video. It’s hard to find any videos for this watch. I would definitely watch more of your reviews.

I would like to see the lume shot for this watch. In short, it is a very attractive rugged watch that is extremely noticeable. There is nothing that looks like a pan except for a pan. However for this price point. There should definitely be Hacking and COSC certified.

The thickness is only 12.4mm? It looks like thicker than that

Where did you get your Chronograph Heuer trucker hat?

Bought one and love it classic style and I wasn’t prepared to pay £13500 for a Rolex 16750 which in all fairness is a £2070 watch at the time of release.

Great to find a video about the Reverso Squadra. A very underappreciated watch line in my opinion. I bought my Reverso Squadra Hometime as a christmas gift to myself in 2009 and to this day it gets the most compliments out of all my watches. It's good enough for Pierce Brosnan and Luca Toni, so it is of course good enough for me. 😉

Very good review, you deserve lots more subcribers! i bought this watch yesterday, it’s my first microbrand watch, i’m vintage collector, it looks like a NOS diver, it’s a beauty, very solid watch in all the way, i have it on bracelet, i don’t know the bracelet receive so much ‘hate’ from many, it’s a good bracelet, beautiful and looks very good on this watch, i like the rubber one too, beautiful and softy i didnt try yet, i think would be very comfortable but i saw in pictures on hand didnt look as good as the bracelet, it’s almost invisible when you look at the watch.

For 6 inch wrsit size... what dial thickness will be perfect.

I have a 71/4 “ wrist and I grew up wearing seiko divers, and this watch is still one of my favorites although the service is dismal,I would not exchange mine for the new model because of the gold on the bezel and it’s smaller size,I plan on keeping mine forever and the san martins that mimic it will stay in my collection as well .This watch and the submariner are all I need to be happy,although I’m not sure if I can pass on the titanium christopher ward or the omega aqua terra or whatever the new vintage one is called

Just bought the carbotech version with matte green dial. I 100% agree, its the best fitting Luminor ever, for us mere humans

able to request the same kind of detailed review to the Panerai Submersible 42mm Pam02223? thank you!

Great review, especially as I’m missing a GMT from my (small) collection. So would a 2022 model for a shade over £2000 be a good used buy? Genuine question, and I know the seller personally.

I didn't notice my collection of watch has similar lug-to-lug dimension until watching this video!

The 40 mm Quatanta is indeed the most versatile and wearable Luminor model. The ultimate do everything, go anywhere Panerai!

Would it fit a 6 inch wrist do you think?

It is NOT a diver. That’s enough don’t Watch The rest…

This review is great

I dont understand the purpose of having the graduations for thr first 15 minutes if youre going to put a giant 10 emblem in the middle, makes the graduations after the 8th one near useless. Either keep the graduations to the first 5 minutes or get rid of the giant 10 on the bezel.

Can you make a review about the porsche design dashboard 44 mm, please

The caseback is pressed in, screwdown.

I think your over looking the 116600 sd4k

Funny thing is everyone complaining about the thickness and wanted 58 GMT. And now the 58 GMT is out and complained about gilt color. That is why watches is so individualized. To each its own

Love my sea dweller, but the best in the business is the 50 fathoms. That bezel was the first and is still the best in the industry at any price. But I love my Rolex and wear it daily.

nice review. nice watch! good luck with your youtube channel!

Stop guys, yachmaster sucks. Lets not hype this one, its my next rolex and I dont need price or wait time to go up. (YM is awesome).

Picking mine up today after a long wait 🥹🥹

does the luminor due have hacking seconds ?

Why everyone so woried about scratches!? It is a watch, not a expensive painting or one of a kind art piece. Every watch acratches, if scratches vory you, buy g shock and not metal watch.

I have this watch with the olive-gray leather strap. It fits very well & smaller than its specs, once the strap breaks-in after about 2 months of daily wear. That alligator strap ruins the whole aesthetic of this timepiece & shouldn’t be anywhere near this masterpiece, unless the owner is 80+ years old.

How does Omega say nothing about the independently adjustable hour hand? It's not listed in the features or functions of the watch at all!

Have this and black explorer 2 as my daily. But I love this watch. Its stunning. Think I may add a exp polar. I’m on the fence with a sub, something about it just seems overly plain

Please could you speak a bit faster?

Been wearing this for two years and runs about +1sec/day. Added a Forstner jubilee and it's nearly perfect. I might try an all black bezel I recently saw somewhere on IG. Anyone here tried the new BB jubilee bracelet and T-fit clasp on this watch?

It’s a chunky monkey but I love the opaline dial

Best daily. The feel of wear is unmatched. Also with wrist 6.5

It’s a chunky monkey and top heavy

Is there any explanation why there isnt any anti reflective coating (that kimd of caught me off guard)?

it's so beautiful , but, why discontinue

Everything bar the hands is stunning on this watch. The hands are too thin and lack any uniqueness.

Former Rolex Sea Dweller & Submariner owner here. Great watch but always lost time. It bounced between -2 and -7 seconds per day. Sold them both, pocketed $10,000, and bought a Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean and never looked back. Gains between +2.3 and +2.8 per day for the last three years. Hands down a better watch than both. (My Sea Dweller was the older model I will note).

53mm lug to lug on a6.5" wrist.. Pushing it... Looks to buy .I have the same size wrist hehe No anti reflections coating

Thx for the vid. This wears surprisingly well. I also have a Certina 43 DS Action Diver but it wears much larger than the Sea Dweller.

I reached out to this lot to buy this watch. I asked if they did sales or any opportunity to grab it at 5% off the price so I could avoid 15% import fees on my end. They said no. I went elsewhere.

Great review...very detailed... But you've forgot the lume shot😊😊😊 oh noooooo

It’s NOT a diver. Stop.

I'm 5'5" and this watch is NOT too big. My wrist is 7.5 in. Is it chunky? Yes....but all tough, durable watches are a bit chunky. I WANT a watch that is a little heavier and thicker than a dress watch. All I can tell folks is that if you want a small thin watch that's not heavy......BUY a Flippin DRESS WATCH. I wear this all the time and I love it! So well made and accurate and its made to last. The size complaints are silly. Buy a dang ladies datejust if you need such a small steel watch.

I had this watch. The date wheel never worked right and after three attempts Tudor was never able to fix it.
