Hi All,

Been a while since I took some pictures. Didnt have much time so only settled on the one.

Available in both 800x600 and linked in 1280x854.

I've been toying with the idea of moving it along by the end of 09.. but nothing stands out as a replacement. I had an incredible time yesterday at a jeweller in Sydney with whom I have been looking at diamond rings. I've spoken to this guy so many times but never realised how many Panerai he owned. I had on the wrist yesterday a new DLC 332, Ceramic 292 and a bunch of others. The one that stood out for me though was the white gold Radiomir 10 Day auto GMT, the 235. Absolutely stunning. The watch that comes close to this is the 268 8 Day Radiomir with the 233 movement. The domed crystal of the 233 is very unique and hard to pass up though.

I've got my eye on a Breguet XXI for early next year. Perhaps my next birthday in March. Lovely bracelet watch for work. Word is though that the AUD is going to pip the USD and hit 1.05 USD = 1 AUD. If that does happen - ill be buying a gen Fiddy and whatever else I can scrounge up the cash for. The AUD wont sit like that forever so they will be sound investments that's for sure.

Jay, this is one of my favorite posts in a very long time. Those are great pics of amazing watches!!!

Obviousely I am biased and a huge fan of the 233, my favorite PAM of all time. And that is a GREAT looking strap!! Who makes that!

And that BP!!! You jackass! Its all I can do to stop myself from going right out and buying one. Looks absolutely stunning!!!

Your collection is shaping up very nicely my friend! I did notice that we have almost identical tastes.

The Rad is nice, but I think you will suffer from flipper's resmorse if you swap out the 233. I would keep it and see what comes out eventually.

personally not many PAMs are calling my name anymore, got all the ones I really crave other than the Fiddy, which is too expensive for what it is. I do hope they come out with a standard production 47MM 1950 case model at one time, that would be great!
