The wait is killing me - Panerai content
Well I went in to hassle my AD on Thurs. I was told they are getting a new Panerai shipment in 2 weeks time. They dont know whats in it...
Will my watch be there? I'm really starting to get pissed off.... not sure at whom either. Maybe myself for stuffing about so much in deciding on what I want... I could have had what I wanted about 3 weeks ago DOH DOH DOH DOH DOH DOH DOH DOH but i let the salesguy talk me out of the 005 that was there. By the time a local paneristi and I went into the AD the watch had sold. I've had the opportunity now to try on about 5 different PAMs so I am really really keen to get mine. I've got 3 straps already! Can you believe that??? I did have 4 but one was a 22mm so sold that off... |

Hey Amanda, you do realize I had to wait 3.5 years to get my Panerai, right?
Believe me, its SO worth the wait. Btw, what straps are the two you won? |

OK the black one is from timeconnection.biz - it's a black with white stitch (calf I assume?) as you can tell The Tan is from Big Watch Boutique. Other than that I dont know much else about them! |

There's no harm in being on tenterhooks for your Panerai - it shows how much you love the brand and the community. I think you've found your ideal watch - it wasn't Rolex and there's nothing wrong with that. I enjoyed every minute of owning a Panerai and sold my only Rolex because it just wasn't getting worn. The only thing you have to decide is whether you prefer the old LM dial (eg 01/111 A-F series) or newer sandwich dial. Shane |

Must say as I'm going with BNIB I'm quite torn between the sandwich dial of the 112 and the painted dial of the 000 and the 005!!! I reckon I'll love either watch!! |

If you want to keep more to the history of the brand then you'd want a normal dial and solid caseback, and that means an 000 or 005 (I'd go for the 000 out of these two). If you want something a bit dressier then go for the sandwich dial and see-through caseback of the 112. Whatever you do, take your time and decide which one you really prefer, instead of just getting whichever arrives first. And be proud to own a Panerai! |

I may not have bought the Panerai I did if it was not for the serious discounted price. I still have my eyes open for others....

I'm sure you will be very glad once you get it as when I got my PAM.
I love it, but the buckles just are not for me. If it doesn't have a deployment, well it just ain't going on my PAM! Haha. Anyway, good luck. I'm already starting to become addicted to straps. Got a honey brown coming my way. Aadil |
