<<< What's 3 digits and blue ... INCOMING >>>
Good afternoon all, yes a very good afternoon indeed. FedEx just dropped off my first ever Panerai.
A special thank you to Paul, Cru, Nicholas and Nick for the inspiration and the PM exchanges. This one's a beauty! The 690, one ive beem eyeballing since last July. Its lightweight compared to what I'm used to. The size isn't a problem and it wears super comfortable on my 7" flat shaped wrist! What I really love is the gorgeous blue dial! As many of you know I have a thing for blue dials and this one is truly spectacular! It changes in different light and gives off a beautiful cobalt sunburst blue color ... very hard to describe but it gorgeous, (now I know what you're talking about Paul). This is the first handwound watch I've ever owned and I was a bit reluctant at first but I think I'll delevop a bond with this one! I'd also like to say a special thank you to the forums most excellent DSW. It was a pleasure dealing with you sir! ![]() Thanks again to all you enablers. Cheers all! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk |
