Bought a New Watch!!!
Here are a few quick pics....
![]() ![]() I bought it from my AD for Andie for being such a great sport during this pregnancy. I got it from my normal Rolex AD at a very nice price. The funny part is, I wanted to get her an explorer, but she insisted on a quartz. She is stoked with it and will have a second option from her daily wearer from the last 2 years. ![]() ![]() And one comparison shot of what we both have on tonight. ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks for reading guys. ![]() ![]()

Very nice Daren.
My wife has a Tag F1 for one of her daily wearers too. The more I see the Submersible, the more I like it too.

I saw a 170 today that almost made me wet my pants. Submersible in Ti with a bracelet, very nice!! I started to scheme in my head, than took a deep breath and said, patience you silly Hawaiian fool.

![]() ![]() ![]() I hear you I called my AD today ( as well as some within a few hundred miles, actually NZ) to check on Panerai stock. ![]() My AD, told me "Soon.. 3 weeks to 3 months for new stock" BUT they had 2 left over. One was the Submersible (PAM025) and one LIMITED EDITION white gold baby for a mere $29,000. ![]() Yeah, I was scheming for a minute also ![]() ![]()

25? Well that is different from your other Pannie. I have to tell you, I am more taken with this 24 than any other Panerai I have owned. I still ove the 88 alot, but this one gets reached for more and more it seems.
I love the dial on the 25, but the Submersible line is not for everyone. I like that you have your sights set on the historic with a black dial, but you do own a historic already. ![]() ![]()

The 25 is a bit much for my tastes. Too busy for me. Still nice, but not my favourite.
I think I'll stick to my plan. I know I will end up with 2 historic's, but hopefully will end up with my white face 114 and a simple black face base. However, if a 212 shows up, all bets are off. ![]()

Nicely done, Daren. Our goal is to keep "the little woman" happy (don't tell Andie I called her that, even tongue in cheek
![]() ![]() I have to say the Tag looked pretty big next to the Tudor. But when you put it up against the PAM, all of a sudden it looked rather tiny. ![]()

![]() ![]() The TAG actually looks on the big side on her, I love it. Next step Explorer, then on to a 40mm Pam, all in my dreams. ![]() ![]()

Daren, My wife is left handed, so guess what she's looking at now?
Yup Destro. I think I've created two monsters with one line of watches ![]()
