Incoming!

This will be my second Panerai purchase, my first was a 328 that I no longer own. I have a 171 coming in the next few days, love the titanium and stainless bracelet on this model. It will be great to have a Panerai back in the mix!

Thanks guys! Photos will come as soon as it arrives. It's an older model, I'm wondering if they have changed at all from the introduction in 02-10?

It's sweet! I can't wait to get mine. I definitely have the Panerai bug. Already shopping around for straps as well!
