Excellent pickups Steven! Adam (mortgageguy) has been trying to get me to look at Panerai for some time now, after looking at your pictures I just may have to take another look at their lines! Great seller and kabayan in Oscar! Enjoy!

Hey Sam, take a ride on the dark side! Panerai has you written all over it.

congrats! You and I must have similar taste, because I wear a Sub C, but the 312 is next on my list followed by the Hulk. Although I waffle on which one I will get 1st, it's likely to be the Pam, due to diversity!

You should take the dive Sam, Adam is right. I used to say I would never buy a Panerai and my wife will never let me forget it. Go and try it on you will love it, they look better on the wrist than they do the computer

Very, Very nice. What a beautiful pair you have there! As Sam said, I have been pushing him toward Pam for awhile and with pics like yours it is making it easier for me

I did almost the same thing.. Picked up Both a PAM 312 and also a Rolex DJII. I love the option wearing two classic brands with different personalities.

I was browsing with my phone and saw the little tools, and thought DSSD first, then saw that Panerai! Then the DSSD! wow man! Great watches! My wife's friend loves his Panerais and she pointed it out to me. At first, I said that I didn't like them. Am I going to have to eat my words too? Why does this happen with Panerai?
