First Boutique Visit...

Today, I had the pleasure of trying on the beautiful, gorgeous, stunning PAM 676. (Won't use any more adjectives) Today made a "quick trip" to NYC. Left @ 8:55 got there @10:10am First stop parking garage west 66th street. $25 bucks with coupon. Can't beat it! Then walked through lovely Central Park. By myself ofcoarse being the watch obsessed, investing wiz, warren buffet aspirant I am. Then the Panerai boutique! MY FIRST TIME! Then the very courteous associate allowed me to try on the new model PAM 676 and also the PAM 1312. Then they offered me the most amazing espresso and a bottled water to compliment the fine beverage. Although I didn't end up purchasing anything, which I did state as soon as I walked in the boutique as a courtesy to the associate. It was a fantastic day because my very good friend was selected by Patek Phillipe for an interview as a watchmaker. So now it's round 2 for him! At the end of the meet up, him and another business connection met up and we ate Chick-fil-a. (He specializes in luxury pens, wallets, and lighters. Truphae is his eBay handle. Chris is a great guy and will help you find something specific or looking to unload a pen.)Sorry for the long post, but what a positive day!

Nice. Cool pics.
I was there late Oct early one morning because I had a problem with the bracelet on my 328. They couldn't have been much nicer. I didn't buy anything either but I tried on several pieces and straps.

Nice. When that first PAM actually comes, you'll be over the moon.
