After tracking down a 292/312 options, which should arrive pretty soon, I came across the so nearly my first PAM I as looking at last year

I'm really more a bracelet chap, so the thought of not grabbing a 279, before Panerai change to the new bracelet, was a sad prospect.

Sorted and sorted - two new watched in one day - DeepSea, +1 PAM ..... at last!

Sizing the bracelet was enormous fun - must have been 10 different types of component on the table ..... plus a hammer

Pics to follow. The titanium is sooo lovely

Congrats X! Looking forward to pics of that stunner & ti bracelet.

Did you end up selling the Black FF?

I hear ya...

Wow, X....

That is great... Deepsea (which I have really started to appreciate) and your first PAM...

That is fantastic!

Are you still considering the 292/312?

Saw a 312 a couple of weeks in the flesh... Impressive!

I really like the 292 - its part paid for, so would be rude not to, specially since I'm fresh out of black watches

May pass on the 312, as I'm tempted to wait for a titanium derivative on a bracelet - much more comfortable in warmer climates.

My phottie skills are a little grim, but these are passable (just)....

And along with its little brother...

Have you any idea how hard is was to make that thumb print on the face
