its bad news for all Breitling lovers.... my Breitling Avenger Seawolf steel that i ordered has today become my Panerai 111.

couldn't help it and once i realised i had more cash than i thought i just had to change my order.

i do feel that the PAM 111 will go great with my SOH 46 and the same lug width its a massive bonus as i love straps!

Funny thing... my Seawolf became my Omega SMP 36mm the other day!
Still keeping my eye on Panerai, but don't really like the AD here in VAncouver.
Can't wait to see your pics when you do get it!
Cheers,
Carl

Great move, my second Breitling was sold to get my frist Panerai, a 112. Once you start getting straps, it won't stop. I love the OEM look compared to aftermarket, but that's just my opinion.

Just had a quick question regarding Panerai, how much can one expect as a discount from an AD regarding that brand?

Nothing really. Sometimes you might find a discount on less popular models.

That being said - they have some of the best resale you will find.

Diversity is the spice of life, great move and I am sure you will enjoy both brands.

Dont forget to check out the excellent PAV straps.
