Amanda, very nice indeed. Kurt (the watch boys) little Incursore bobble-dude.

Now be sure to get the Panerai Historia book from your AD when you get the PAM241 and you may want to pick up The Black Prince and the Sea Devils to get the full, heroic and unique story of the men who made up the Xa MAS.

For the record, he's wearing three Panerai instruments. A dive watch, a wrist depth gauge and a wrist compass. I recently saw a complete set from WWII go at auction for about US$90,000!

This arrived one day as a suprise from a fellow Paneristi & TRF'r.

Here's another, look at the super clean air in Melbourne today..... this is a result of 688,000 hectares of bushland burning across Victoria. The smoke has been covering the state for the last few weeks, degree of coverage obviously varying based on weather conditions.

Launch Mini's air quality in Vancouver is similar... only it's from all the BC Bud being smoked.

Nice Pickup Amanda!
Looks like you're staving off PAM fever nicely until the 241 arrives.

Very cool Amanda! I have one of those on my desk at home, not sure that I will put it on the desk at the new job, might scare off some people and get tired of explaining to the others what it is.
