No love for the 386?

[smokiedabong]

I was looking for some 386 pics and opinions to convince myself and get one. Apparently there's only one member over here who owns one cause nobody else ever mentions this watch.
Why haven't more of you bought it? Is it because it was never produced? Ugly I know it isn't.
Can somebody who owns the watch post some pics or opinions on how it's holding up?

Its an awesome piece -- I just sold my V2 and am debating to get the V3 from KW. The coloring is very unique and I think its a great pickup. However, now that the 500 series of PVD/Composite watches are out with the smoked back lens, I have a feeling more people are going with those, but that's just a SWAG.

V3? There's a V5 that looks pretty darn good http://www.kuvarsit.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=32159 . Same level with the latest 505

Haha -- then there you go -- didn't even know that KW had a titanium base version. That looks like a winner

Released last year and nobody has one?

The 386 is an awesome looking watch. Tempted with that V5!

I have the 386 ZF and love this piece. The reason more people have not purchased this watch is because it was never produced. I can tell you that it's a great looking piece and mine has been flawless in keeping time. It does wear a little lite as weight is to mimic the original concept. Here are couple of QC pics since the iphone on hand doesn't take good pics. Enjoy.

I've long admired this watch. What is the colour comparison to the KW 505. I have that one and love the brown tone but miss the crown guard of the typical Panerai. Is the 386 the same colour as the 505?

I also think it's due to OP never launch the Gen.
But, the watch itself is truly beauty.

The price of v5.1 dropped anyone knows why?

Because factory now uses Seagull movements instead of 7750. Nice cost-efficient upgrade in my opinion !
