Incoming!! My first!!

Always wanted a Panerai, I love the idea of interchangeable straps as I think it can add such an extra dimension to your personal style.

My wife and I are in Italy on vacation and thought it no better a time than to get one from the original store.

So we are in Florence and I stopped by the boutique.

So many decisions.






This is the one I thought I’d be leaving with before I came to the shop.



Due series is interesting, so lightweight compared to the traditional luminor. The quick change strap is an awesome design though the color options aren’t as expansive.

And finally...



Went for the PAM1392
Love traditional feel and look, the 42mm is a great size considering my 6.5” wrist.

Even got a free croc strap!

Congratulations!

I had so much fun at the Firenze boutique when I was there. Customer service and the shop itself are top notch.
