Hello
this is my new project a Panerai Militare 217 from Davidsen. I will say, do business with him was great. The watch is exactly same he say, and the delivery is VERY fast. absolute no problem. highly recommended
I receive it with 2 straps( one like croco, and a broawn)
the strap on picture come from a another very kind dealer STRAPCULTURE, i will be make 100% business with them again.
I was very long to choose, because the front of this watch are a lot of time perfect, but it s not easy to find a nice mouvement. This model is the ULTIMATE 217. size case 47mm, if you not like big watch don t go far away. she s enourmus, but i find amazing
i m not choose this model to find the perfect accurate ( wathever, not a lot of peaple know PANERAI), but just to have a watch very different of another, and the 217 is very very different!

For the mouvement is the SWISS H MOVT WITH DAGGER FUNCTIONAL SWAN NECK, and YES the PANERAI marking is from a RIGHT mouvement, it s little surprazing for a watch from this quality but... the number 117 of 1000 will be a uptade.But him stay very close to the gen.

Nice choice Meyer, this is a classic. Wear it in good health!

Besides, is it possible that you installed the longside of the strap wrong?
I think the SC-signed side should be inside (not visiable when you wear it) :wink:

Cheers
