Merry Christmas to me! Panerai 233

After owning a 352 and selling it, I've been wanting a Panerai back in my collection. The 352 was a nice watch and I thought I would like the light weight of the titanium and the bracelet as I was so used to bracelets from my Rolex and other watches in my stable. Long story short the 352 never sung to me and after trying on a 233 it just sat nicer on the wrist and has been calling my name ever sense. So Merry Christmas to me, here is a quick pic when I received it Christmas Eve. Hope everyone had a nice holiday.

Having gone from a 312 to 233, I can relate. Great choice!

They're getting harder to find. Nothing wrong with the AM/PM though.

No worries about the dot dial comment as I did consider it. I actually like the am/pm and I was lucky enough to get a great deal on a brand new P Series. I believe the new P series is the lowest production quantity to date as mine is 0XX/800? Thanks again all, I can't stop looking at it and already have other straps on the way.
