heads / tails...
Ok Pan lovers next dilemma.. help me out here..
As you might have noticed I have a line of GMT’s (every idiot his thing) and I set my mind to adding a 233/270 to the collection.. BUT>> now I stumble accidentally upon a 141 as you might know this is a single run of 500 pieces… and it does tickle me.. complete and in very good condition. This is as you know a quite rare find and the price is very reasonable at 4K (euro) and has the last zenith calibre in it.. SO – what would you do 233/141.. |

I love that watch. The perfect dress Panerai! Yes, I'd do it in a heartbeat if I had 4k E sitting around.

Hmmm get both... For me, I have made a decision to get the 233. But, that's just me. I think both pieces are great - you can't go wrong. The 141 being so exclusive. Get that hang on to it - get a 233 down the road if you still have to have it.

indeed 42mm, the 45mm is a little on the "big" side for me also so the 42mm ones like the 98 do have a perfect fit for me.
im indeed moving forward on this mainly indeed due to these being quite rare, and it helps it being in the EU due to the import duties. so once again the 233 needs to wait a little. the more i look at the 141 the more im starting to like it.. saying that i have that with nearly all the Pam.s oh dear... |

It's very nice but it boils down to what you really like. Good luck on your decision.

and...
its mine...... it started smiling more and more at me and the zenith calibre in this pam did help to make the decision, got a good deal on the watch and got thrown in an extra original deployant clasp with it for free.
you have to admit the panersiti bunch cant be beat .. so hope to follow shortly with some more pic's , now the saving start AGAIN for the 270/233 Gtzz N. |
