Love the watch but my Pam 422 suits me much better with my 7 3/4 in diameter wrist I also love the see thru case back with the power reserve . Fantastic watches from panarai . 47mm of pure history and presence. 😊
Some models, sadly, don't have more the hack that stop the second hand for adjust the time. I love my 1359 with 9010 moviment that is possible to see through the saphire case back.
Very helpful video Elizabeth on this beautiful watch, and if I’m not mistaken this was the watch that my friend Jerry bought out in Aspen. He still loves the watch and wears it often over his other watches. You guys really took great care of him..thanks so much. 👍
I had this watch. Sold it cus every time I wore it the watch felt in the way and too clunky. It has the 1950 case which is like 18mm thick. The brushed casing comes in handy to hide scratches. I now have the pam 1084 which I love. All polished case so need to be careful.
@@xekret I can’t blame you. Titanium is a nice choice because it’s light for a big watch and almost the same or similar movement with 1312 anyway I think.
I find that every PAM is perfect. It’s about finding the PAM that is perfect for you. Going one step further, I find that you can pick many PAMs, but untimely; it will be the PAM that picks you ⌚️🙏🏼
Elizabeth, your Panerai videos have been so incredibly helpful in trying to get a sense of a complex brand. Could you give some more guidance on the "fit" difference between the 1312case and the luminor base, like the 914? Is it a significant difference for someone with a just below 7" wrist?
The 1312 case has the traditional Luminor 1950 case, with slightly longer lugs than the Luminor base models. The longer lugs offer more curvature to the wrist, although I have never heard of someone complaining about the "comfort" of the Luminor base. For a 7" wrist I think both would fit comfortably -Elizabeth
Great, concise review. I’ve been looking for a Panerai that had to be a sandwich dial (for my taste). It looks as though I’m about to pull the trigger!! Thanks for helping me confirm what I was leaning towards. Cheers
Elizabeth, you made me fall in love with Panerai again. I have a PAM0088 which I wore for only a few months sitting in my collection for years. Now, I'm deciding between this PAM01312, PAM00796 (Left-handed), and the PAM00797 (8-day Titanium). Would love to hear your thoughts on which dials you find most attractive. Very informative and nice video by the way.
Hi Mark, thank you for the nice note! The movement is what makes the PAM00797 special - it is the first time Panerai did an 8-day power reserve with the indicator at 4/5 o'clock. You won't see the watch very often. A destro is also a unique piece to have in a right-handed collection. When in doubt the PAM01312 will always be a classic! - Elizabeth
Thanks for your thoughts. I should’ve mentioned that I was more after the aesthetics between these models more than the movements in this case. I especially like the sandwich dial. But yea, I feel this is now a lead contender. I was also looking for some cream / white sandwich dials - haven’t really completed my research yet. Thanks again for your valuable input. Looking forward to more of your videos.
A closed back is a welcome addition since its no fun to look at a generically finished movement with plates on top of inner workings. The watch is a solid choice among way too many Pam models. I just wish it was all polished. Its easier to polish off scratches and NO, brushed finish does not help to conceal scratches, its quite the other way around.
@@TrendyStone Yes, I'm familiar with this practice, did a lot myself. The cushion shape is not conventional though unlike flat surfaces. Also historically Panerai watches were all polished. Thank you anyway. Keep up good work.
@@Val_Cosmos Ok, I just found it odd that you find satin surfaces more difficult. I have a decent collection and the polished surfaces take more work to maintain. The Rolex oyster bracelet is a great example. I can touch up the satin surfaces in five minutes but the polished center links take a lot of work.
@@TrendyStone With Rolex bracelets I prefer all satin oyster. Jubilee is easier to maintain but it looks too dressy and old school to me. I polish polished surfaces using pre-moistened polishing pink cloth. A rotary tool is not good unless you have a watchmakers machine. Polished surfaces are easier to maintain in a cushion shape imo. They conceal uneven imperfections. So yes, center polished links on Oyster bracelets are not easy.
P.S. In regards to the front part of Panerai satin finish, its all rounded by a machine. How can you touch up by hand to duplicate the rounded finish? I find it impossible unless you are ok with imperfect job. I'm not.
Thanks for the informative videos. I love the brand and can tell you guys are as much watch fans as you are brand ambassadors. I noticed when you pulled the crown fully out to set the minutes, the seconds hand didn't automatically reset to zero. Are they using new movements by which they got rid of that feature?
I just bought my first Panerai at the end of July 2022 and it was the 1662. I love it and ready for my next. I’m in between the 1312 or 1321? I hear the 1321 is being discontinued? Is that the better play being a GMT and sapphire case back?
Hi Elizabeth. Thanks for the informative videos. Any idea why they changed to closed casebacks? Are the movements inside the same and finished to the same standard as before?? Thank you
Good video, but in my opinion, a perfect Panerai should maintain the no-date DNA. The 111 is probably the best example. The 915 is very close, but they spoiled it with the faux patina loom. Remove the date from the 1312 and it would be a contender for the perfect Panerai.
Would have been great to see an exhibition case back to be honest like on 1359. I am not able to understand why did they do a closed case back on this model.
Is it right there are 2 versions, one with a closed back and one with an open back? If yes, why is that and why do not they have different numbers , like 1312 and 1313 or something?
@@WatchesbyOliverSmithJeweler Also noticed that when turning the minutes hand backward, the seconds hand ticks backward( time machine?). Is it a defect or by design? Please check the video review by Caster Choi, its a very recent review. Thanks
The pam01312 from before 2020 has a see through case back and the seconds hacking feature. See the article 'THE NEW PANERAI P.9010 - PERPETUAL DOWNGRADING'
I wish they'd really ditch the crown guards. They are completely useless for intended use and purpose, and just makes them so bulky. Plus, they look better without it.
The 1312 has hacking seconds? I don't believe that is the case but in the video you state that the seconds hand stops when setting the time. Was the watch wound?
Always wondered why it was ‘Marina.’ This video covered a lot of information succinctly: The GMT jump hour hand for the quickset date. The hacking seconds, which I was pleased to see, as not all models have it apparently? Do the SIHH 2019 Submersible models I like below have stop/ ‘hacking’ seconds? I prefer closed casebacks as it protects the lubricating oils being degraded by UV light and you can have a soft iron anti-magnetic Faraday cage; Like the #pam1389 which I personally think is the best start out model with the Submersible dot indexes. I like the 47mm Mike Horn Edition Submersible #pam984 from SIHH 2019 and only recently noticed that it has the traditional ‘Sandwich’ dial mentioned here; whilst my other favourite Panerai Submersible models, the 47mm Carbotech Marina Militaire #pam979 the 47mm Submersible BMG-Tech #pam799 and 47mm #pam1616 and 42mm #pam960 Carbotech all have solid circular block indexes made of solid blocks of Super-Luminova.

Great to hear!

So easy to change the straps. I always use toothpicks to do it. No worries about scratching the lugs.
I just bought one and love it.
I bought this PERFECT Panerai today, before watch this video

I’m also looking for that PAM351 or this PAM01312 or 1359. Torn with them

Definitely not a fan of the closed caseback and changing the movement from hacking to non hacking. I’m happy I got one before these changes were made.
Would you rather get the 321
Gorgeous

I just wish it was all polished. Its easier to polish off scratches and NO, brushed finish does not help to conceal scratches, its quite the other way around.
Actually, if you buy a rubber satin bar (Bergen 5444) nothing could be easier than removing scratches from a watch with a satin finish. Easy Peasy.

I bought this watch in July 2021
The color of the index is different from before the renewal
good 1312
안녕
I love the Watch I’d love to have known how much it was
Thanks for the informative videos. I love the brand and can tell you guys are as much watch fans as you are brand ambassadors. I noticed when you pulled the crown fully out to set the minutes, the seconds hand didn't automatically reset to zero. Are they using new movements by which they got rid of that feature?
Thanks for the feedback. Yes Panerai started to use a new movement in the PAM01312 in 2021.

Hi Elizabeth. Thanks for the informative videos. Any idea why they changed to closed casebacks? Are the movements inside the same and finished to the same standard as before?? Thank you
The PAM01312 still has the same Panerai P.9010 movement. The closing of the case back was an aesthetic update for 2021
Hi 😊how do you use this watch for diving without a rotating bezel? Thanks
Lovely watch

I own the 111 and love it...but the case shape of the 1312 is more sexy IMHO.
What's a lovely girl.
Good explanation.
Very nice. What do you think of the PAM111
I have had a 111 for 15 years and love it...but there's also something fantastic about the cushion case style.
Would have been great to see an exhibition case back to be honest like on 1359. I am not able to understand why did they do a closed case back on this model.
Pam 312 for me
I find the 312 too thick and top heavy. Otherwise...gerat watch. 14.8mm vs 18mm is a really big difference.
Does this fit the same as a 44 submersible?
Still the 312 for me with the exhibition caseback.The blue small second is just not to my taste. Each to their own, Panerai has just Got It.
Perfect PANERAI 👏
Nicely done Elizabeth
Thanks for always keeping an eye on the channel Mike!
No, there's not a "full disc" of luminova under the stencil dial. It's the same painted digits that are on the non-stencil dials.
for me panerai pam 944 or 945 are perfect. and i cannot afford them😜😜😜
Is it right there are 2 versions, one with a closed back and one with an open back? If yes, why is that and why do not they have different numbers , like 1312 and 1313 or something?
Same 1312 version. Panerai should've changed the reference numbers...
@@vitaboost thnx!
Does the current pam01312 with 9010 caliper has seconds hacking feature?
Hi there, the hacking seconds feature was discontinued from the PAM01312 models a couple of years ago.

Don´t they make PAM01312 with transparent case?
Hi Michael, Panerai has previously made the PAM01312 with a transparent case back but moved to a closed case back in the last couple of years.
So this 1312 hacks? Cause I’ve seen others don’t..! Is this an older or newer version?
Correct this 1312 with a hacking seconds was produced up until 2020/2021, then was replaced with a new movement -Elizabeth
@@WatchesbyOliverSmithJeweler ahh ok thank you
The dial on these looks unbalanced, they should move the date to 4:30 and put the “3” where it goes.
I thought the new 1312 doesnt have the hacking seconds hand?
You are correct...mine doe not hack either.
@@barbecue4u The removed the hacking feature and all movement decoration. Sad...
No date, then it’d be perfect.
Not bad but I take my 1085. :))
Thats fair! :) - Elizabeth
For $7,500 the case back had better be aligned perfectly vertical instead of the lettering all cock-eyed. Just sayin’
Die nächste wird eine Panerai..ich schwöre..🤞
That’s strange I’ve seen this watch with a clear back are you sure this is a 01312
Early models have a clear caseback, newer models now have a closed case
They also stopped decorating their movements.
The blue dial.... No
not so perfect after all as it not a exhibit case back... so the great PAM00312 could be way much better !!!
There are 2 versions, open and closed back.
I wish they'd really ditch the crown guards. They are completely useless for intended use and purpose, and just makes them so bulky. Plus, they look better without it.
no clear case back....
Would you rather get the 321
You look like a perfect lady…..

Like the #pam1389 which I personally think is the best start out model with the Submersible dot indexes.
I like the 47mm Mike Horn Edition Submersible #pam984 from SIHH 2019 and only recently noticed that it has the traditional ‘Sandwich’ dial mentioned here; whilst my other favourite Panerai Submersible models, the 47mm Carbotech Marina Militaire #pam979 the 47mm Submersible BMG-Tech #pam799 and 47mm #pam1616 and 42mm #pam960 Carbotech all have solid circular block indexes made of solid blocks of Super-Luminova.
