Paneristi Exclusive Toronto boutique Yorkdale mall

Hi everyone, I'd just like to share my experience tonight. My son and I went to a Panerai exclusive event. We saw the new models of Panerai and snacked on some finger food. We also met Nat from paneristi.com. It was a blast. I would like to thank Cru for letting me know about this event. Pics to follow. Enjoy. IMG_0012.JPG

Brill!
The 687 with the faded dial looks different in the flesh than on the website.
Didn't really care for it on the web but in your pictures it does look quite nice.
The one I really love is the Ceramica 577 - man I would love that thing to be on my wrist... best get saving..lol

I was there too! I spoke to a few people but spent most of my time speaking with the extremely friendly staff who were happy to show my wife and I many many watches. Sorry but what were you wearing? It's the only way I can place people, lol. I saw Nad, we spoke before but didn't get to meet him as he and another guy seemed deep in conversation. I was the lone black guy there (excluding one of the servers lol). I enjoyed it very much! I'd also been to AP's main office in Clearwater who were equally friendly and helpful but I wasn't expecting this yesterday. The only two things I was disappointed in were I was looking to see the 661 which was there up to yesterday morning when some guy from France bought it: (. I was hoping to see a 700 but that wasn't there although many other new watches were including a 1351 to replace the 351 which even the NY boutique told me was unlikely to be made when I asked at Christmas. I was shown a 616 and the Carbotech case is simply stunning. I was told the 661 looks very very nice and they offered to bring one in for me to see however, I think I'm going to go for a 233 as I really like those complications and the watch was much lighter than I thought it would be. Thank you Panerai!

Lol, we dropped her watch off for a complete service. She like the rads but after the asst manager showed her her 523 my girlfriend want a luminor. She doesn't wear her 40mm Pam due to its weight. Now she's getting a 1392.
