Congrats Sandro! Looks great. I looked at another Panda today. The Silver-dialed WG Daytona.

The configuration of sub-dials on the Daytona more closely resemble a Panda - big black eyes, mouth etc. The sub-dial config on an AP is turned sideways, but folks still call this a Panda dial.

Nice Bill the Daytona is another very nice piece. I just have a hard time justifying the cost for the white gold when it looks like SS. But the panda white gold dial is gorgeous.
