panerai looky likeys

a good friend of mine tried on my panerai and it really suited him- he is a big guy who works out a lot and his nickname is 'the powerhouse' so it complemented him well, his fiancee is saving up to get him a watch for their impending wedding, i have been given the task of getting it and will probably go for a TT DJ with diamond dot dial which would be his 'best' watch mainly for special occasions/meals out etc, as he is not a watch loon like us he would never spend more then $200/300 on his everyday watch but i was wondering if their are any big panerai looky likey watches that you guys/gals could think of?

i vaguly remember a watch made by 'U-boat' that they sold in my local clothes shop but i dont know if they are any good/too expensive for my budget


any help and pics would be greatly appreciated

Get his name on the "Italiano" waiting list over on TZ-UK, Sam. Check out the design thread under Timefactors Watches.
Cheers,
Bruce
