Another shot on the same strap.

 

 

 

I've been a fan for a few years now. Though not far back enough to have made a killing like some others have.

 

The 359 is another of my favourites which I think is very underrated.

 

The design is unbeatable! I think i will make this brand my last watch purchase, but I'll have to eat my own words, because the 40mm ss is around $7G's!

Update for all because I am a vacuous and self-obsessed Gen Y-er who thinks the internet cares about and needs to know my every thought/movement...
...going to Bangkok/Singapore in exactly a week. Will be checking out the various watch boo-teeks when I am there. Am particularly excited about the Singapore leg of my trip.
In particular will be viewing a few Zeniths, maybe some IWCs, definitely some Dornblueth, the along with the JLC MC RdM, and various TTR 1931 editions in the flesh.
Which one am I most excited about? Here's a clue...

Decisions, decisions. nod[1].gif

Looking forward to hearing about your trip...and seeing whether you bring home any souvenires.

I was amazed by how strong the watch culture is in Singapore and how it affects everyone.

In the group I was working with, there was a Vacheron perpetual calendar, a PP Aquanaut and a couple of Rolexes. And none of these people were particularly wealthy.

Shopping seems to be the national religion.

I think the simpler PAM designs beat those hands down.

Nice Exp II. Enjoy.

Got my first Panerai today! I was surprised at how elegant this watch is in person. Perfect for smart/business casual wear. Some quick shots:





Panerai design + JLC movement = winning combination

love the 190.. congrats man!
post #16663 of 21262
Nice panny, but "elegant" is not the descriptor which springs to mind for me!!

Anyhow, congrats! biggrin.gif

No, it is a MWR group buy some 5-6 years ago.   It was made, I believe, by Horoswiss (at that time).

It is a great beater, holds up very well.   Not sure what caliber is the mmovement, but it is an ETA.   I might take it apart some day... still water tight

I had it on a shark skin strap but it rot and I switched to the original bracelet.
