Default RE: Post Pictures of Your Watches

Yeah, I like big and heavy watches.. LOL! But I stop buying them now.. kind of went through the phases, you know.. ha! But I do still have all those I posted above.. I am not much of a seller of anything.. (like my RCs.. LOL!!)

Mine is actually not a Panerai.. the PAM104 belongs to a friend of mine.. mine is a RXW.. it is a watch that's made by this Japanese collector that emulate the shape and look of the Italian navy dive watch from the 50s (which was made by Rolex, commissioned by Panerai?). The 104 is the standard 44mm, while the RXW I have is actually 47mm. I had a friend hand carried it from Japan for me when that watch came out a few years ago..

Panerai makes 47mm version as well, but the shape of the case and the size of the #s on the dial is a bit different than those from the vintage version..

But than, the Paneai die-hard would call me wearing a "fake"..
