Panerai PAM 560 painted dial: Thoughts after 30 days

I recently bought my first Panerai -- a PAM 560. This model has undergone an interesting evolution due to the presence of a sandwich dial the first two years of production followed by the switch to a painted dial. The move was controversial and not particularly well-received, since the sandwich dial is far more coveted in the Paneristi community. However, having owned this watch for over a month now, my appreciation for the watch and the dial in their own right continues to grow. I wanted to make this video to provide a little more information and a close up look at this particular dial construction method.

The video is on the long side, so here are links to the main transition points:
