VERY tempting!

Is it wider than the PAM Luminors? Looks quite large - like it - heaps!

Oh, I'm laying off. I can't afford for sure right now, but he would hold it for me for a bit if I really wanted it. I think I have another I want more.

Size, wears smaller than a luminor for sure. Very light and comfy actually. Doesn't even feel like it is there, but it does sit a little higher.

It is only 42mm. Just looks huge b/c the bezel is so small.

That's a beautiful watch. Ryan Gosling wears one in the movie 'Fracture' and sold me on one down the line. Can I ask how much he's asking for?

I'm sure he'll be asking a fair price. Whatever the market value is. I can put you two in contact if need be. Let me know via PM.

Looks like a million bucks. Sure would be tough to say no - even if the price was a s-t-r-e-t-c-h.

As a follow up, I know everyone loves BIG watches. But I wish this thing was 39-40 mm, especially considering it looks bigger since it's all bezel. This size looks way too trendy to me. Just me $0.02. I'm sure most on this forum would disagree.
