Secret Mens Business

These type of events are a rarity in Australia which makes them even more welcome. We have a very loyal and strong Panerai following and it was a plesant surprise to get an invite from my AD to attend a ‘boys’ only presentation of Panerai’s Manifattura Collection.

The venue was none other than Sydney’s famous ARIA restaurant. ARIA provides a dining experience that encapsulates Sydney lifestyle, offering panoramic views of Sydney Harbour, the freshest Australian produce in an innovative and contemporary menu.

The evening started with splendid canapés accompanied by wine or Prosecco for those that wanted to get into the true spirit of the night.
The main course was the new collection which included my favourite, the Pam 312. I also love the 311. A few Paneristi also wore some cult pieces like the Pam 127 ‘Fiddy’ and the notorious Pam 203.

Jean-Sebastien the Officine Panerai MD (Asia Pac) provided a wealth of knowledge about the new in-house movements to fellow collectors.

A fabulous night was had by all, with the only regret being that we didn’t take more photos. Events such as these highlight the growing passion for watches in the land downunder.
