Icon6 Back to the DARKSIDE

Well once again I find myself here You may remember I had a 176 for a short time but I really did not care for the manual wind, I know, I know but it just wasnt my style Yet only a few months pass and I find myself with a new Panerai arriving today from my good friend Oscar.

Is it just me or is Panera so very much more interesting/intriguing/unique than Rolex? Dont get me wrong I love my Rolex watches too but they are so much more common than the Pams. Something I really enjoy is that the Pam's are "under the radar" if you will.

Anyway here goes, not a very good couple of pics but you get the idea. I went with a BNIB 297. I love the dial, sub hands, date... It is perfect for me. Bigger than the DSSD yet so very comfy on the wrist
