"OK, William. My very old 350/450 eyes (+10 diopter) bow to your 10/10 . If that's a small ding, then maybe that's why it is selling for just $160,000.00  "
I guess that Panerai got more performant guys working as movement-ingeniors than the ones who work on watch assembly...
As i told before, they could have make a special key in softer material to avoid this problem. But to make such tools in composite materials cost some money and they prefered to go on the classic steel hexagonal key...
They certainly saw the bad result but thought that it would not show on naked eyewaving.gif
