Calling all White dial panerasti's!!

Gentlemen.. looking to pick up a white dial Pam, would love to get some shots of how you are wearing them.. don't see many out in the wild and I think it's very versatile.. rubber black strap for daily wear, leather brown or leather black for a dressier occasions..

Some great shots there, Nick

I'd love a 654 but my watch collection is complete.

Thanks, means a lot when coming from you. I am sure 654 is a very good watch, however, I prefer simple ones and I don’t like buttons on the case. Like streamline. These aspect only applys to me.

Haha, of course I do not mean that. For your collection, I noticed you like watches with complicated functions whereas for me, a pedestrian movement is enough and simple.

BTW, I am sorry to see you depart from out chat group. Yes, I admit some conversation has nothing to do with watches but are part and parcel of people. We have a newbie who has a 3646 and a 6152/1 now and he is French.

Well, my 359 is as simple as it gets but I do like a few complications once in a while.

Yeah, sorry about that. I use WhatsApp for work, especially when I'm overseas and my phone was getting a bit congested at the wrong times

I completely understand about the chat group. Most of the time, we chat about nonsense.

I had a 320 but was sold. 320 vs 359 are basically similar except the dial and GMT function. That’s the most complicated as it gets for me. Now, I am more pedestrian watch.

Looking for a 499. Should I expect a discount from an AD or price is the price. I've read mixed reviews, some say 20-25% is normal some say no discount. Anyone share there experience

If you find one at an AD with cash in hand, 20% is reasonable.
