For Daren

Thought these might go nicely with the 88 when you're in a tie on Sundays.

Of course, but silver is far better than 14k gold. I mean, buying 14k cufflinks is like buying a Porsche 911 with an automatic transmission... why?

Well, I mean, if you're wearing a gold Rolex then don't you think the gold cufflinks will go better?

I wasn't referring to you as in YOU, you tosser!! Just as a general rule of thumb....a gold cufflink will go nicely with a YG or a TT model.

Well, getting back on topic, while Panerai does make some YG models, they are known for their SS models first and foremost. Therefore, the silver cuff links are more appropriate to the brand. YG panny cuff links would make you look like a poser.

That said, Rolex did issue YG coronet cuff links with YG Presidents some years back. I guess if you wear a YG DD, then that would be an um, interesting combination.

Have to agree there, pal. Pannies look best in SS and those cufflinks in silver look stunning!!

Actually very cool John!! When I first clicked on the link, I thought...WTF? But then I looked at them and thought, very nice. I almost put a bid on a pair, you never know. Pannie bug seems to be floating around.

I wear French cuffs (that's Freedom cuffs to you yanks) quite often. It would be a nice touch.
