New Arrival

I've owned 104, 183 in the past and sold them few years ago for personal reasons. Since then, I stopped looking at Panerai as I thought they were too big for my 6.5" wrist and started looking at smaller watches. The other day I walked by a dealer and noticed 389, what a beauty!!! although the massive size, I totally fell in love with it. Today I decided to pulled the trigger and adding THE big monster to my small collection. Here are some pics to share:

*warning: it looks ridiculously huge on my wrist

Congrats! Seriously, your wrist looks more like 7" on that 47mm Pam. Nice fit.
