Nice spread dhalem. When did you get the UN MMD? Is that the silverized dial and how does the slight magnifier date window work out? I am not a fan of the bigger Rolex cyclops.

Nice PAM collection, I may revisit them when the 42mm 337(?) comes available.

It's the silver/white dial. I had one before and sold it and then decided I wanted another. I picked it up a couple months ago. Unlike the Rolex cyclops, this one is much smaller and is under the crystal instead of above it. which is a lot nicer IMO.

Nice collection, but one of these watches is a little out of place! :)

I'm guessing you mean the G-Shock. Which is true, but on the other hand, it's an awesome watch. It looks like the ones I had when I was a kid, and it is solar atomic which is cool too. Quite a technical achievement to produce a watch like that for the price they sell it for. You can bash them all you want, but the engineering skill there is just as impressive as making a tourbillion if you ask me, just in a different way.

I actually also have another japan-only limited edition one on the way to me right now :).

Awesome collection! I would love an in-depth review of the UN as it is getting really tempting to pick one up.

Great collection, I love the Avenger. As for the G-Shock, mine has lasted two years of getting the crap beat out of it and I haven't had any problems. That being said, looks a little weird in that box.

Very nice collection! I'm hankering for a PAM 312 myself at the moment. :D

Nothing wrong with having a G-Shock in the watch box, particularly a classic design like that one.
