Question for SAFARI owners

Dear all,

went into discussion with a friend yesterday about the SAFARI when visiting our local dealer.

Me: the numbers are dark-brown!
He: the numbers are black!


Who is right???

And who can prove by pic?

Thanks for helping out...even the AD did not know for sure.

You know, this is a funny question...

because it keeps coming up all the time, and even those who have a Safari don't always give the same answer.

Unless someone else does it first, I'll try to shoot some pics of mine when I get back to where I can access it to lay this to rest once and for all.

From memory?

I don't remember!

Sorry I can't confirm sooner. From memory it looked very dark to me, so I remember black

June 21 2010, 5:42 PM 

but nothing like looking at the dial in hand, under good lighting, to be sure.

Alas, I am 400 miles away from it and will only be getting farther before I get closer...

I'll try to confirm through other channels, from those who should know for sure.

Cheers,

TM

... Or could it be that Thorsten, as an avid Panerai collector, discovered...

June 23 2010, 3:45 PM 




... something huge and is bringing the world of 'non matching T-dial mania' to the AP collectors? 'Vintage' AP dials changing colour? Black fading into brown? wink.gif

Only wild guessing untill he confirms wink.gif


Just joking arround,
All the best,
Mr.O
