            true that G. this one belongs to my room mate actually and he needs to take it in for the 2nd or 3rd time now this year…just looses way too many seconds during a day!

              Shitelings are known for that… But of course, it's a watch, who needs it to actually tell the time accurately right?..

                          Panerais are common.  Get something worth having…...Go to a SE party and every single person is wearing one,  Not cool....

                              Still better than a Rolex, on the most part IMO. Every person @ a SE party is also wearing denim too tho? (I know what you mean, but maybe it is reflective of quality, more so than sheeple?)

                                I'm on the lookout for a watch in about 4 years time (seriously). It'll likely take me that long to find something that's not a PAM or Rolex…

                                  Yes, they are all wearing denim, but that's like saying they're wearing watches….....There is something sheeplike (imo) about the Panerai gang......

                                    yeah it was a pretty weak point, it's not like they all wear the same brand of jean.

                                      Panerai has some nice pieces like the fiddy, 372, Cali, slytechs, pre-a's and their vintage pieces with rolex movements from wwII or later. But chances you get them for a reasonable price are probably zero and it can be pretty hard to get at these watches.

                                      For those interested in vintage panerai i can recommend the books from Ralf Ehrlers and Volker Wiegmann

                                      I like the concept of the brand especially the historical line and the strap thing might make even more fun than the watch itself 🙂 i had two panerais a sub 24 from a very early batch with polished bezel and a blackseal radiomir over the years. Have gone through lots of watches during the last 7 years, some traded in some sold all was fun, now i am with my iPhone. Very cool too

                                      Cheers,
                                      David

                                        For your climate a rolex would be perfect my man 🙂  😛

                                          Got a few years to think about it, still not overly feeling it at the mo. Am feeling more subtle, we'll see what happens in 4 years tho :).
