312 Inbound!

I just joined the Panerai family and couldn't be happier! It literally took me years to finally decide, but I landed on the 312. My requirements were limiting: 1950-style case, second and date complication, 44mm. I debated the known issues and people recommended other models, but I always came back to the 312.

I should receive it Tuesday. And now the strap obsession begins.
