First Panerai - Thanks, Thanh!
I just received my first Panerai and am already looking to order more straps.

Thanh (aka Takuya on TRF) was a great help assisting me with getting it.

Nice! But my money is on you going into the 44mm range in no time flat. I know I did...

Thanks again

If it were me, I'd go for a 392 (In house movement, sandwich dial and 42mm size)

Congrats on the 48! Love mine and have had no desire to go to a bigger size. The beauty of Panerai is the huge variety of straps available and the ease of switching them out. I find myself wearing these two most often:

I was thinking about the PAM 523 since it has a white face.

Has he really been banned? I was in discussions only the other day to buy his 372 (didn't proceed in the end)

Yeah, seems to be the case. Considering all the watches he sold here, it would be good to know what happened....

Perhaps do a search and you will see since I posted a thread explaining it(see below). It had nothing to do with watches he sold and purely a foolish mistake he made. I am guessing he learned a lesson not to compromise integrity of TRF again.

PS. Congrats to the OP!
