Indeed, I think he was probably too busy out enjoying the F430 before it gets too snowy to drive.

Beautiful, but the 5196p is a more formal / better dress watch in my opinion.

Hi Tomasso,
Which dealer is this?

This is almost my favorite PP model. I prefer the 5196s with no numerals-- the various gold ones. Still, this is very nicely done.

Beautiful. I especially like the fact that it lacks a date window.
I dislike date windows. To me they throw off the symmetry of
watches.
