Hi ,
I curious how you feel crystal distortion on Panerai watches .
For long time I was crazy about … having as small distortion as possible but as times goes I find that some distortion is a spirit of classic panerai - At least to me.

Could you imagine PAM 217 without distortion? 🙃

Like with all the other details, people tend to be over zealous when it comes to accuracy w.r.t. gen. If OP had released the 127 with the level of distortion that the Noob had, we would all be trying to replicate it and the XF would be seen as subpar.

Sure agree 👍. And even more .distortion on 368 in my Black_Shark based on Noob is fantastic with Brown Belkin dial makes amazing look especially when sun comes on dial .And for me better look than gen one!

I like distortion. I just got a PAM 1232 which isn't supposed to have it but I almost prefer it because it give me the feeling of the older pams and makes for more dynamic viewing experience and light interaction.

Imagine how disappointed we would all be if you could simply glance down at your watch and see what time it was 😜
