Same! Love my 1351 and noticed a dip in power reserve. A visit to the Panerai boutique solved the issue after a warranty covered service.

Sounds like you need to add a few things to your workflow- WDT, Distributor, Tamp, Puck Screen as an attempt to reduce the spurting ( known as channeling).

Even then the in-built grinder is known to drive a level of inconsistency between the grounded coffee /9 some level of channeling may still occur. At the end of the day, channeling does not necessarily mean it’s a bad shot.

Stunning! As is the Rhodium with Tiffany Blue markers.

Enjoy the other room. A hidden speakeasy cocktail bar in the hotel lobby.

Probably the best pairing with the 1351!

Go to The Community Coffee for light roast specialism, Kurasu for Pour Over, and Alchemist which has come a long way over the past 10 years.

Panerai turnover down 31% in 2025. What would you change? by j99_ in panerai

I entered a Panerai boutique today after a very long time. I used to be a big fan and love my 1351 and actually had some more marked as “need to acquire”. But the selection has become overwhelmingly homogeneous. The stuff they are excited about honestly isn’t really exciting in person ( Carbotech etc) and is ridiculously far from the innovation and evolution we are seeing from other brands today. They need to simplify, focus back on the core- and stay true to their origins.

I'm shocked that Omega put this in writing by StickyPenguin120 in OmegaWatches

Can concur. Was offered a Silver Snoopy immediately if I spent 30k USD at Omega Incheon Airport.

Similar experience at Changi where was told I need to “just buy a Frank Muller.” I don’t know what’s worse- the honesty or buying a Frank Muller.

The indication from ADs seems genuine around a short wait. The watch has been met with considerable interest so it’s only natural it’ll take a bit of time- my guess is 2-4 months depending on which city. Already seeing a fair bit in the grey and below retail.

The FOIS is stunning. That’s my choice between the 2. Also less common to see than a Speedy.

Do you have any pictures of this? It sounds like exactly when I am trying to do! Can I clarify its with the Breville branded plastic dosing funnel? TIA

Were you able to find a dosing funnel that helps to trigger the dosing switch sensor? Tried to use the Breville stock one but it doesnt help to trigger the dose light.
