Sheesh - close call. For a minute there I thought aliens had taken over your mind and made you trade the 190.

Nice watch! Congrats.

CONGRATS.. 232 is stunning, would love one in my collection to sit next to my 390's ;) I can't however come to love the Rad's so much, it's strange... :( I think they look too dressy to me , and it turns me off to wear for my active/sporty lifestyle

Some day, started a new business instead so I'm playing safely and keeping toys to a minimum. It's not like I'm without watches... ;-)

Regardless, fab reference, cannot wait to see some wrist shots!

Rads are my fav for sure. They are "the" perfect strap watch. That goes for most all cushion cases. I'd love to own a VC 1921 American as my grail dress watch for example. I just love the case and how the lugs are perfectly suited for straps. The GO Senator is another I like, but likely will not get as I have so many Panerai in line. I got in and out of favor on the luminors. My 390 is barely worn, but not because I don't like it. I wear my 111 all the time as my kids are rough on my watches! Don't want to subject my 390 to that just yet!

Regarding dressy rads.....you just need to put on the right piece of old leather to dress them down.

I suppose your right..

What I said, was definitely MENTAL on my end, not exactly how they are, or that they are indefinitely dressy and fragile lol...

In my mind however, if I'm going to the beach club, i'm throwing on an AP Offshore/Rolex sports model/PAM 162 or 360... You get the point

I tend to stick to the less shiny options for my active lifestyle, and the shiny for evenings/going out!

ENJOY though

Wow, I'm the opposite, I remove plastic, strap the watch on and wear it 24/7 right away
