Here is the wifes 2 Panerai's
The white one is actually a PAM51 without the bracelet. We opted for a blue gator. Those pics will follow later.

Not the best lighting, so I tried some subtle angle changes to try to avoid glare. One was with the flash.

WDL in the future for Andie too!

Rto · 19 October 2006, 12:42 PM

Very nice ones John!

Launch Mini · 19 October 2006, 01:31 PM

The white dial is great for the various colour straps she has.

amanda · 19 October 2006, 03:57 PM

Awesome watches and awesome photos!!

Do you think the white dial creates the illusion of the watch being bigger than it really is? ie does it make it wear bigger????

JJ Irani · 19 October 2006, 04:35 PM

Wonder how Ed will react to that orange strap?

mailman · 19 October 2006, 06:44 PM

Nice watches John

Earl · 19 October 2006, 07:22 PM

Nice looking watches, what did the wife think or does she know yet?

19 October 2006, 08:57 PM

Very nice John - well done!!

Not quite the way you react when you get close to a sheep.

Despite what our resident BKL would expect, they're very nice, John. Now how about some wrist shots so we can get the full and proper effect.

19 October 2006, 11:18 PM

I really, really like that 24mm gator! Beautiful colour!

BTW Amanda, I've had a white dial 44mm base on my wrist and IMO the white does give the illusion of big, but in a good way. I can't say how it would work on a 40mm version but even at 40mm the PAM51 is a thick watch, but again, in a good way.

That strap is supposed to be RED.
The picture in the middle shows its true colour.

4 January 2007, 01:43 AM

So John, does Mrs. LM/Little LM have more straps for that 51 than you have for your Luminors?

Launch Mini · 4 January 2007, 02:09 AM

They used to.
Collectively, I now have more "spare" straps for my Luminors ( with one more still to arrive)

This answer sucks without pix.

Launch Mini · 4 January 2007, 02:21 AM

Best I have on short notice.

4 January 2007, 02:40 AM

Awesome pic John...

Aside from your beloved 98, which PAMs get the next most amount of wrist time? And the least?

Launch Mini · 4 January 2007, 02:53 AM

Wear time has changed since adding the Greg Straps.
Probably in order of time worn
1 - 98 GMT Alarm
2 -3 Tied - The two logos -000 & 005
4 - Very close behind those is the 113 ( white dial on the brown strap
5 - 104. But getting a bit more
6 - 210 Missing in action for the last month. But might rank #2 if I count Al's wearing time.
7 - SS Sub

There are many days, when I get home and change watches

There are some days where I get home and change straps, then change again the next morning.

If you send me the 98 I'll send you the 210 so it can catch back up to the #2 position? Deal, or no deal?

Let me wait until storm season is over. I am setting this as my primary alarm now adays, as I cannot trust the electricity reliability in the area lately

Yes, but you appear to be an "engineer in training" so I would expect that from you!
