JB Nice 190. Congrats and wear it good health.

I wish mine 210 got the subdial on it, it looks like a goldfish swimming

Trust me Danny, wasn't easy giving up the 210 either.
I told myself, If I sell the 210, the 190 has to be around the corner. If the 190 had a 9, it would be perfect. LOL

Late to the part as usual but here goes:

1 Panerai PAM01B

1 Greg Crazy Horse with white stitch
1 Strap Culture Folkler in brown with white stitch
1 Strap Culture Antiqua charcoad with white stitch
1 Mario Paci MP6 rubberized calf black with ivory stitch
1 Strap Works navy blue calf with light blue stitch
1 OEM rubber

After about 20 or so strap transactions since May, I think I finally have what I want now.

Well, I had been thinking VERY seriously about a 210, but that would mean a whole new strap acquisition process since it takes 26mm straps, and that could lead to divorce.

I've got my eye on another watch, but not a Panerai.

I managed to avoid divorce by saving lots of money and going for another 44mm Pam. The existing straps fit the new watch..
Mind you the Missus seems to be growing the art collection almost as fast as my "got to get this one" watch / strap collection". Its a race to see who breaks the bank first, but with a family motto of

"Money is the wrong reason for not doing the right thing"

who cares (except the bank manager!)

Looking forward to see which watch your eye falls upon!!!

Oh the eyes have fallen on something Clive... I just have to move my Rolex to fund this next one, which is no easy feat as the missus is likely to throw bricks at this plan.

What's that saying....it is better to ask for forgiveness than to seek permission.

Great plan Mate, just needs a bit of work.... and here it is..

My Explorer has to go before the 112g arrives.... (directive from the Missus).

How about you buy my Explorer for exactly the same amount that I buy your Rolex = Rollies sold, Gals are happy, Boys can go shopping.........

and then I get the 112 and you get "what ever it is your eyes have fallen upon."

Great plan until I woke up..

Hmmm, but that doesn't achieve my end of wanting to be a 100% Rolex-Free-Zone.

Sorry Clive... good plan but I'll have to pass.
