Hi Everyone.

Can anyone help to explain the back of Panerai. Why picture shows it's fully covered and it shows also the expose part of it?
I like to buy one but I like the exposed version where I can see the thing swinging.

Thanks in advance.

Case back = Pants

If you remove your pants you would be able to see the thing swinging too. Lol sorry I couldn't resist

In the pic with the exposed movement they just removed the case back for the photo. The 243 has a closed case back.

I've never seen a 243 with a clear case back. Have you? Maybe he's also talking about other models. Its hard to tell.

For good or bad, I think the OP was being serious. Sooooo....
The 243 in the picture has a solid case back. However Panerai has many OTHER models that do in fact have a glass see through caseback, that you can see the "swingy thing". If you like the size of a 243, then look at a 312, 359, 320, 351, etc. they all have see through casebacks.

Panerai submersibles do not have glass casebacks because they are meant to be dive watches.

I was thinking more on the lines of 44mm subs, which the OP was asking about in the first place. I still don't think there is a see through case on any 44 mm sub. Definately not a He valve 1000 meter rated one.

There isn't a 44mm submersible with a display caseback. But if 44mm submersibles don't have display casebacks why would the larger subs have it?

To show off the the P.9000 when it first came out. But all of the newer 47mm subs seem to have solid case backs as well. Maybe the glass wasn't such a good idea, for divers...

If the Gen sapphire case back was a problem, the Crystal would be also. No?
