Once a Paneristi.. always a risti.

As some of you know, I sold my 312. I purchased a SS Daytona in its place with the thought that I would put out the fire for a little while.

But again... I have this feeling of wanting another Panerai!

The Rolex itch has been scratched by the Daytona - a lovely lovely piece! But the 233/270/275 is still knocking.

I've decided one should have at least 1 Panerai in the collection if you've ever tasted the madness. If you've never had a Panerai... don't start... it's too addictive. I've gone back and forth several times.

Aye, it's even more maddening trying to decide on PAMs than it is Rolex models... : s

Same problem here Joey in that I'm both into Rolex and PAMs, I keep on trying the 233 at ADs whenever I get the chance, so guess I'd agree with the previous posters for your next PAM...

Hahahah!!!

Love the car, Kabayan! Can't put all my eggs in 1 basket! I know it'll happen soon.... just waiting for the cash to build up.


233 or 270! Seems like the used market is prime for these 2. A huge hit in resale it seems.

X2. I think it's because I love every single Panerai made while there are only a couple of Rolex watches that I would even wear these days.
