Just wondering if anyone out there has one of these, and what I can/could expect to pay. Also, can the metal bracelet be used on the 111?

Sorry for all of the want want want posts-I hope to be more of a contributor and less of a leach after I get going here.

Thanks!!!

Check www.paneristi.com, timezone.com and even fleabay for price.

Not sure if Panny's bracelet works on the 111, but I know you can get good aftermarket bracelets that fit it fine.

Thanks for the response Atomic! I checked both of those sites and came up with $6200.00 and change. Is the 220 basically the same as the 221 minus the titanium?

I know most of the Paneristi out there don't care for the bracelet, but there is just something about it that calls to me. I'll probably do a 220/221 first and then a 111 with a gator strap just to cover that classy side...

Your right, the 220 is the steel version of the 221.
My price list has the 221 at $6400 and the 220 at $5900
I don't think the metal bracelet can go onto the 111.
I know you don't see many of the metal bracelets on the various Panny sites, but don't let that hold you back.
If your buying becaus it makes you smile, that is what matters.
I have seen one on a bracelet. They look pretty sharp.

Check out this site, scroll down "The Rock" wears one in The Rundown.

Keep in mind too David, you can get excellent aftermarket bracelets that fit the 111. I believe our own Dman (Daren) has one and likes it.

Thanks again for the responses atomic! I am making some calls today to try and track one down-hope they aren't as hard to come by as SS Daytonas!

Thanks!!

Hope your search is successful. Let me know what the MN AD tells you...thanks for the PM!

Thanks Rodentman!
I talked to Dave today up there-they have a 220 in stock and are expecting a 221 within the next three months. The price difference is $500.00 between the two, and I am having a REALLY tough time deciding on taking the 220 now and saving the $500.00 or waiting for the 3-4mo. and getting exactly what I wanted. I love that dark-gray brushed look of the titanium!

Go try on the one they have in stock.
You might be very pleasantly suprised as to how it feels and looks.
Personally, I found the Ti felt a bit "off". Hard to describe, just didn't feel right.
The size of the Pannies make them look heavy, I guess the Ti just felt too light for the look.
It doesn't hurt to look. You might get there and find the leather strap models grab you more than the bracelet.

Roverdave · 31 May 2006, 08:50 AM

Launch-
Did you try the old style all Ti. model, or the Ti/SS model? It is killing me as far as the decision. I put a sizeable deposit on the 221 and they say with a fair amount of confidence that it will be a less than six week wait as they are alloted four shipments between now and August when the factory is shutting down for eight weeks. Their distributor says that there will be at least one of the two 221's that they are alloted for the year in that batch of shipments. I live about 350mi. from this dealership and it is the closest one to me, so going up and trying it on would require a monumental effort and great forgiveness on the part of the wife to make happen-especially since she is due with our second here in the next few weeks.

The Dealer has been great to deal with so far, and faxed me a letter with my deposit confirmation stating that if I am not satisfied with the fit/feel I can return or exchange it to get the 220. I actually feel better about this purchase so far than I did about the SS Sub. I LOVE the sub and will keep it until I pass it onto my son, but the reception that I got at the AD was less than warm...

Thanks!!
