Thank you all so much.

It was an unexpected pick up. I'd been thinking about one for quite a while and had let a couple of resellers here know.

Then of course one came in.....superb price.....brand new...all plastics etc etc.



It is an outstanding watch. I was so relieved when I first went in to try it on and discovered it to be so damn comfortable on the wrist and it sat perfectly.

I love the size.....and the dial is sublime.

Panerai have hit the nail on the head here.....exactly what was wanted from the brand.

The wind is so smooth......just beautiful to feel.

Thanks again....I'd thoroughly recommend this watch if it feels right when you try it.

Thanks as usual to all the superb enablers around here

X2 Dalip! Now, it's time for me to start shopping with the 26mm straps.

I honestly was "this" close to pick one up as I've re-aligned my collection a bit, but then the IWC Deep One opportunity came along. But resistance if futile on this one... :-)
