Anyone wearing a PP to start the weekend?

Enjoyed the Aquanaut today...







Off to work saturday...
I will be flying all over Southeast asia tomorrow for the next five days... So I have decided to take with me a few watches. I will have a chance to have a small GTG Sri Lanka. Looking forward to it...

I'll be taking the following watches...

I'm with SubmarinerMariner. The first time I saw this watch I was hooked!






BTW, I don't want to take anything away from other people's photos, but if your monitor has relatively accurate color, the 2 photos I posted above (iPhone shots btw) are a pretty good representation of the true color of this watch. The rose gold IMO has the perfect amount of warmth without any of the hideous pink you find in other brands. The rich chocolate dial shimmers and changes color in the light similar to the way the blue Nautilus does. I love the contrasting white hands, Arabic markers, and applied rose gold surrounds. I think PP hit a home run with this (except for the price). It's a perfect blend of sport casual and dress. Beauty and simplicity in one neat package!

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your feedback It's everything I had hoped or and more. Like fine dark chocolate, it has an addictive quality, right down to the bite-size squares on the dial! I can't take my eyes off it.

Cheers!

5167 for me all week and apart from 10 minutes with a Daytona.....I had to put the 5167 back on .....I've been corrupted. (not really) but the 5167 is a gorgeous watch to wear.
