You're amazing. I think you have more watches incoming than I have in total. I don't suppose you need to sell your PO 8500 to finance it. :wink: Looking forward to the photos.


One comes in and one goes out...I figured out that I just like to experience a new watch every week, then after the thrill wears off in a day or two, off it goes for the next thrill. I'm not a collector, I'm more like a watch pimp.

No sorry, the PO 8500 is a keeper! The POC 9300 could depart though to make room. I can't wait to see how this Navi looks on a brown croc....if it's anything like the white world (which I loved but was too big) it will be a knockout!

Quick work Sergio. I really like that piece!

Having said that - another LE....

Looks good to me too! :thumbsup:

It'll keep my hopes up for a white/silver dial in-house Navi World at some point! :wink:

Agreed. I was just having some fun, hope I didn't offend....


Not at all!! You're too nice of a guy to offend me.

Wow, talk about an impulse buy...I mean lease! Pretty impressive, you know what you want and you go for it.

That has to be in the works. They have the movement already. They probably have a crap load of worlds left to sell first before they release it.

I think this one will be a very nice piece, at least I hope so. The white world (or silver as some say) was one of my favorite lings, it just wore a little large on me. This should really hit the spot for me. Counting the days. I could do without the LE but I LOVE that the wings are white gold! The color of the font on the date window doesn't bother me, I like it.

I'm a big fan of their white/silver dials from the Montbrillant to the Datora to the Bentleys and I think the Navitimer looks great in the color too. I especially like the white gold logo and the display back and I'm indifferent on the red date. Glad to see something nice come out of their pipeline after a string of shortfalls.

You'd certainly have thought so wouldn't you.

I'm a sucker for the white/silver-dial so this places the 01 on the nice list. This is great!!

EDIT: If I can read and Serge just bought this or "leased" it. Serge give me your PO! ;)

No chance, I am keeping my POs! They just 'do' it for me, they speak to me like no others.

Baring any delays, I should have the silver Navi on Tuesday :lingsrock: I realize that it's not a new model, it's just a different dial on an existing model, but I'm still excited for it.

Did you only get it on the brown croc or are you getting the bracelet as well?

Croc, I don't like white dials on bracelet.
