Panerai Maiden Flight
Hello everyone!
 Had the privilege today of becoming a "Pamite"  ...with this gorgeous PAM 048... ...such beauty in simplicity!  Looking forward to get to know the lovely group of people who refer to themselves as the "Ristis"....  Thank you to my dear friend for introducing me to this wonderful world that is SO MUCH MORE than a watch!!  Kindest regards Marijke |

Thanks Marc!
...read your reply in the other thread and yes, i can see why the regular change of straps!...a different watch every time!...the 104 (& 48 of course!!) lends itself to such versatility! Currently i have the rubber and the original shiny golden brown alligator strap - awaiting the arrival of two other alligator straps: shiny black and light blue...would love a light brown suede strap...still looking (hunting) for one! ...the quick change in Avatar had me puzzled for a moment

Congrats on the beautiful watch. You should be warned that Panerai can become an addiction quite harmful to your bank account! Enjoy!!!
