Notes of the Club Panerai: At the 2004 SIHH in Geneva, we had made this same proposal to the CEO A. Bonati, that had said to us no, as well as had said to us no about a special edition of the Radiomir, type ref. 3646 with the arab and roman numerals on the dial and about a special edition of the same Radiomir, dedicated to the Club Panerai. Meanwhile, the Luminor models with the ardillon buckle, the Logo OP and the covered case-back are arrived! According us, in the future will be other versions of the Radiomir (see, in the 2005, the new Radiomir -Base-) and, then, the come-back of the Mare Nostrum and, surely, a new movement Panerai, instead of the hand-wound Unitas-Eta. Moreover, these two limited serials, but with the reduced price, make only confusion (and other…) among the colectors. It’s an -entry level- that show us a reduction of the sales in Europe? We have to improve the balances also for the shareholders? So we have to work on the product and on the communication, we are in the sport/luxury sector; left the -first price- at the supermarkets! All the same, it's a greedy occasion, for whom who has not bought yet a Panerai.
