Watches - another OCD problem

[Dexter_]

Ha. I was going to say that I liked the valjoux wobble but I was afraid of sounding too much of a WIS geek.  ::)

[tobacco and leather]

I've got pretty decent sized forearms and wrists so I've never been a real big fan of small watched so that pretty much counts out any vintage watches for me. Thankfully there are a ton of brands now that make much larger faced watches. My current daily timepiece is the TSOVET SVT-AT76

I'm a huge fan of this watch. Probably looking to pick up a U-boat watch next.

[hectic]

Really like that. But why can't they align the screw heads? Even the hyper priced brands can't seem to do it. Oh wait, that'll be the OCD again….

[tobacco and leather]

Maybe they're going for that whole perfection in the imperfection thing, haha.

Hectic- I  suppose you could get a tiny screwdriver and fix it.  I didn't notice it until you mentioned it, but now it bothers me, too.

T&L- I expect you're looking at the Thousands of Feet models from U-Boat?

On a random side note, Dave Holmes from the show "Holmes on Homes" wears an older model U-Boat Classico.  Yeah, I'm that kind of watch nerd.

Chris - Nope, though I do like that model. Too similar to what I've already got, I'm more interested in the Flightdeck models, gotta get a round face watch next.

[hectic]

That reminds me - I have a lightly used 22mm grey Maratac zulu if anyone wants to try one. Free to forum regulars. PM me.

I've got the bug for a different Panerai so my current model, a PAM111 is up for sale.
I will list it in the 'For Sale' section so as not to clutter up this thread.

This… I can't look at it for too long...

[Chris]

It is so pretty… Good thing I'm totally out of the watch market for 2010 and probably 2011.  Otherwise, I'd be sorely tempted.  I'd also have to figure out a way to explain a new watch to my wife, which probably wouldn't go well.

And sadly, she pays enough attention when I talk about watches and jeans to notice when I have a new item, and approximately how much it costs.  No way a Panny is sneaking past her.

[Tripleterror]

I'm impressed, you're wife actually pays attention 
Never happens in my house.

Finally picked one of these up few months back

 

And  it's funny with all this talk of Panerai's on here  as i'm looking at one being my next purchase either a 188 or 196.

[riffblaster general]

i haven't read through this whole thread, but figured i'd contribute.

I have a Tag Heuer Aquaracer.  My wife rules and she surprised me with it a couple years ago.

[Chris]

The Milgauss is a sweet watch.  I think it may be the coolest Rolex I've ever seen.  I love the second hand on that thing.
