NEW ADDITION: Latest SE Pam XXX !!!

So I just received a new addition to my collection!! I called just 6 minutes after they sold their first one of their only shipment today...feeling quite lucky to say the least. It arrived in the BIGGEST box ever!!!






What could be inside? I've been looking looking for one for a while now and haven't been able to locate it.









Here is it!! My latest piece...Pam 417!! I love the faux patina dial and with the pig...it really makes it a special piece.







Along with the lady liberty on the back, makes me feel like a proud American!!






I want to thank Sharif at Panerai NYC Boutique for making the transaction smooth as silk and thanks for the free gift...it was really generous of him!!

That's a nice piece! Now you need another SE Radiomir for company.

I'm enjoying the 232!

Think I like it better than another popular Radiomir SE, the 249. Now I just need to decide if I want to get an ammo or ABP tan croc. for the next strap.

LOL...I think both are just as nice. I've been thinking about the 232 and getting a domed crystal for it lately. My friend is doing it to his and it will look gorgeous...same exact as the 294!!

Thanks guys for the kind compliments. Thanks Joey!!

Marc,
Not sure where in CT you are but we are planning a GTG in Boston sometime next month. But that is an awesome idea. I haven't visited the NYC boutique personally and would love to sometime. That's a great idea. If you have one in the CT area, I can see if a fellow Paneristi and friend of mine would like to join.

Cool, Jon! I know a couple of guys here that would be interested- the NYC Panerai store is 'cozy'... but the staff is cool, as you know- and there are lots of places closeby to grab a bite and chat!
