The finish would be called satin or bead-blasted and the weight of the case is incredibly light.The rear of the case around the sapphire caseback window is in replica Corum watches titanium.For a tall 48mm wide watch it sits pretty well.You have a classic turnip style Panerai crown in metal.The crystal of course is sapphire and the case is water resistant to 100 meters.Unlike most skeletonized watches the dial is really easy to read.
Panerai made sure that all the necessary markers are there and with bright lume applied to them.As such, there is no real part of the skeletonization replica Ulysse Nardin watch that makes it difficult to read.You can tell from the images of the watch that I am wearing that it is a good looking timepiece with lots of utility.Note that is a pre-production model that I handled a lot so there are lots of finger smudges on the front and rear of the watch.Panerai did an impressive job with their Ceramic compound, but an even more impressive job with their work on the dial the PAM 348 a really cool looking timepiece.
