All these 372 posts are killing me...

Just stop guys. I talked myself out of it already and now I can't stop thinking about it.

Here is a test drive I took. A little too big for me I know, but it looks so good.





Unfortunately to get it something would have to go....

Looks good!

But the 190 is a keeper & the 232 is a keeper, also the same size....

Would be nice to add a luminor to those lovely Rads!

You need a strap that fits better and the size would become more manageable .. The strap in the pics seems to be at least 150/100 !

Good eye. Not my watch or strap. It was 100/160

I like 80-90/140-150 depending on thickness.

Wait, the 26/26mm reinforcement ammo strap on my 190 would fit a 372 right? damn it... another reason why I should add a 372!!!

You can always get the 190 back down the road if you realize the 372 was a mistake for you....

The 372 is Panerai perfection, as is the 232.... that's one hell of a killer duo.

A bit more enabling....

If the size of the 372 is a problem, I see a 512 in your future.

The 372 and the 232 are the only Panerai anyone should really need.





Simplicity is always the best!!





Its just too tempting to pickup a couple of Marinas as well.

Jay,

Its funny but your collection and mine are nearly identical with minor variations! I like your collection a lot and it took me a few years to refine to this point.

Best,

Fred
