went browsing today in central london,after a couple of meetings got cancelled.thought i might pull the trigger on a breitling chronomat but laid eyes on a pam112,on a black strap.decided to throw caution to the wind and bought it,hope to post some pics soon.on cloud 9,but the wife has told me i have to sell a couple of my collection to finance the purchase

.now i have been looking for some straps....

Oh yeah, and the panerai base/marina models are lovely on the wrist, i'm starting to sway towards them myself after having my heart set on a 1950s, but they are completely different on the wrist.

Congrats!!! Panerai's are such enjoyable watches, be warned the after market strap world is extremely addicting.

yes joseph i have heard it is addictive and expensive.but seems like fun. the whole experince was very enjoyable as the sales girl at the ad was very pretty ,somehow made the painful process of payment just about bearable

Ah yeah, i'm looking at the 177, i should've known the number of the base, you know you've got a serious panerai problem when you can recite the numbers and give details
