probably not gonna fly around around here.
I'm pretty indifferent about nick names, but if I had to contribute, I'd say by the logic of your choice, you could nickname any watch with a black dial "black panther", so why this one? Also the super hero assigned to this watch would have to be one that flies, IMO. |

that looks more like it. more black features in the dial, case and strap. And looks to be loaded with tech.

If anything, I'd call it the Black Sky (Netflix Marvel fans will know).

Don't know that reference, but it makes sense by the name alone. Even Padi might like that one. haha jk, Padi will only like "The Rolex Sky-Dweller Reference 326934".

Sorry! Not a fan of nick names or pet names for watches. I don’t name my shoes so why should I name my watches?

Nicknames never annoyed me but they need some context and are always things that happen by word of mouth. Plus the random black panther vs. black widow vs. spotted black leopard (the markers are white) vs. black ____insert predatory animal or superhero seems more off base than most of them. That said, great watch.

I’m really over all the stupid nicknames, superhero nonsense, etc. I realize I’m in the minority and probably just acting old and grouchy.
Carry on... |

Nicknames are ok for me. Kinda like I nickname my cars, however I don’t refer to those nicknames in public. Kinda childish and kinda embarrassing. Every time I hear someone say Batman when I wear mine, I get severely annoyed.

We could call it Batman to introduce a virus in the nickname system and hopefully the whole thing would implode.

A potentially controversial moniker. Then again, it probably wouldn't register with Millennial-aged buyers.
