Icon10 Apparently today is the day... (new watch arrived at the AD)

lets have some fun this arvo (change of scenery.. maybe).


which one do you reckon?
some members may have a clue.... so if you do, please hold back for abit longer.
(Charlie (aka Mockingbird) used to be good at guessing my new arrivals... where is Charlie thesedays?)



to cut a long story short (more on that later), my "new" AD contact called and apparently he got 2 watches for me to try and decide which one i'd like to buy today (a small amount of deposit down already)


hints:
- no, its is obviously not a Rolex (otherwise it'd be in the Rolex Discussion Sub Forum).
- this watch company had "connection" with Rolex.
- styling seems to favour younger generations, but there are also many die hard oldie fans.
- there is a "love or hate" relationship for many Rolex fans.
- it is not easily come by, and it is not a limited edition production.
- Stainless Steel model. No precious metal used (as far as I can tell... then again, what do i know ).
- it is quite versatile as far as i am concerned (my 2 pennies worth anyway)
- Swiss Made movement (so, it isnt another G-Shock... again )


let the guessing game begin

Just go over to the P forum and you'll see tons of them.

Yes - if that makes you better having to others names...... Otherwise it is called a Panerai.
