How’s the discount for a Panerai base model at ADs nowadays? Need to scratch an itch...

What so you guys think of the new rolex releases?

 

[kuang89]

New Rolex releases so far:
Explorer II mainly change movement, thicker fonts, thinner lugs. NO CERAMIC BEZEL (HA!)
Explorer I go back to 36mm and have SS and TT (yuck!)

Daytona SS/RG/YG in meteor dial (RG one looks sweet)

Datejust 36mm now has new patterned dials: fluted motif (from the fluted bezel) and tropical palm motif (literally the palm tree leaf). TT(SS/YG) in fluted motif and TT (SS/RG) in tropical palm motif can get for the uncle vibe.

New Tudor releases:
Black Bay 925: a black bay 58 in silver case and see-through caseback. (feels like the poor man's WG Sub in blue, except no one other than watch fans will know what is this).

Tudor Black Bay Chrono (pandas): got black panda (yum) and white panda.

Green dialled gold BB58, not sure who will fork out $20+k for a Tudor when that is near Daytona MSRP

Silver dialled BB32/36/41 I like this line of pure 3 handed watches. For those who wants a high quality no-frills luxury SS sports watch. The dial is silver so the markers and hands are black, quite unique look IRL for sure

I'm predicting in future panda Daytona PN releases for Rolex and an explorer 2 styled but by Tudor in their BB series.

And I think Panerai mis-interpret going green.

Patek/AP/Rolex/Tudor come out with green dials, but Panerai went to make watches on recycled materials. Saving Gaia one watch at a time is oxymoronic considering the amount of packaging these watches come in.

throw to get buried let nature recycle for you was the traditional way which is bad.

How does the silver-cased black bay “feel” like a poor man’s white gold sub?

What attributes do both watches share?
