While waiting for my LVC....

I pulled the trigger on this to ease the depths of anticipation. I’ve had my eye on the 1499 for about a year. The white dial just got me! Still eagerly awaiting my new green friend.

I don’t like Panerai, but their white dials would be the only ones I would consider if I had to buy one. It’d be interesting to see if they ever come out with a version with bracelet.
