Icon6 Got it...my newest addition - 233 love

Gang,

I finally got this baby and I'm in love...first got the addiction with a 111G back in 2004...been through about 3 other pannies since then and have finally come back to this.



I still miss the 111G...last of the painted dials but it drove nuts not having a date and me having to wind it ever other day...and it didn't have a date function. Which is a must for me.

But anyway, if you were on the fence about the 233...don't wait...they are smokin in person...my pics suck!

NICE.... I agree with you - 233 is such a sweet watch. Welcome to Club 233! I am glad you picked one up! Wait until you see how accurate this piece is! Congrats!

Robertino - did you get the "Fiddy" from the other post - it looks like you did.... How sweet is that?

Great pick Daniel congrats!, enjoy and wear in good health

Guys don't feel bad that make three of us without a 233 ........ I been thinking about flipping one of my other watches (none of my Panerai's ) to get me a 233 which is something I don't want to do.........
