I saw this one the other day at the AD, what a piece of art. Just gorgeous. http://www.panerai.com/s_page.xpd?id_li ... goria=3205 You can click on the small thumbnails and see the details. wow. Then there is this one: http://www.panerai.com/s_page.xpd?id_li ... goria=3205 Same watch in stainless. What do you guys think? |

Believe it or not, but i was almost sure that you will consider Radiomir as a dress watch  
if price is not an issue then i would vote for the gold version, looks more classy. |

Altair, I am with alien13. I have no idea what the price difference is, but spending your money is easy for me. For a dress watch, I say go with the GOLD!

I don't think the Radiomir case is the best Panerai design, but if you really have your heart set on one of these then I'd agree with the other guys - if you want dressy, then it's gotta be gold! I don't mind gold watches as long as they are on straps, so with a Pannie you'll be fine. |

Sorry, but if it's going to be a Radiomir, the only one worth considering is this one http://www.panerai.com/s_special_editio ... goria=7295 In-house movement and pink gold - I've seen this and blows yellow gold right off the map... Of course, in my humble opinion... |

Sorry to pour water on your fire but Panerai are the esscence of chunky diving watches....there are other makes that are better at the whole dress watch thing...eg patek, lange, JLC and zenith don't get me wrong, Pannys are Fantastic but don't be too blinkered to other brands |

Yeah Right, The Panerai's you guy's are showing here are about as dressy as a pair of denim OVERALLS ! Try something like this ! http://www.rogerdubuis.com/index.php?op ... art_pk=125 |

Sweet Lord in heaven that Dubois thing is monstrous. I would rather slap a dead frog on my wrist. I think the Rad's are quite dressy, online pics do not do it justice IMO. Very streamlined and understated yet stunning. |

Teency bit out of my budget. The only reason I was considering the pink gold rad I posted was that my AD was willing to let it go 9k

I really like that Dubois actually! Although I wouldn't say it's particularly dressy and I bet it's nice a cheap with that flying tourbillon. 
The Cartier does nothing for me at all.... But to be honest I don't know why I'm posting on a "dressy watch" thread anyway! It's not like I own anything remotely dressy myself!

Doctor Diesel Obviously Has EYESIGHT ! There is absolutely NOTHING "Dressy" about a Panerai ! After all who gets dressed up to go to a GYMNASIUM ? |

My next piece is a Super Avenger. I am going to pull the trigger on a 47.6 mm Cartier Roadster Chrono. I tried one on in the DFW airport last year, and it's a beast!
