do it SOONER as these price increases are CRAZY!

an ROO Chrono starts at $23k and up...
the Diver is at $18.9k...

but the TRF sellers can get you a deal!

You know I have considered this one twice now. But I've never seen it IRL before. I keep coming back to Panerai, but I have to be honest with myself about 47mm. I'll be talking to you in a few months. See your thoughts once the honeymoon is over. It really does look stunning........and that dial....
