Only one of these with lug holes ... interesting. Food and drink looks amazing! Love the idea of getting together to appreciate such an amazing watch.

It's true. Panerai unites a lot, I have (only one) Panerai but I feel a lot of group sense .
Thank you for your words

Wow, that looks like it was a great time. The food looks incredible, the watches... well what can you say about a family gathering like that? Fantastic.

My 16600 would have loved to join the party. Got any extra room?

Thanks so much for taking the time to document your get-together, Gerry. The watches, the food, the drinks, and the scenery all look spectacular. I am a huge fan of the 16600. I have a D-serial that I purchased new in 2005. I have gotten so much enjoyment out of this watch. It's an absolutely fantastic reference. Mine says hello. Kind regards, -Rick
