Very nice, even though I'm not a fan of the destro models, but I do love those PAMs. The 111 or 112 is on my short list. Maybe next years tax return.

No but I think Destro models sit a little better on my Left wrist and of course they make 5 RH ones for every LH one per year!

Nice going Doc! :thumbsup: The Destro's a beauty, and different with it.

A Panerai will be joining my stable this year too....... with a bit of luck. :?

Well done John!

Not my cup of tea but I didn't fancy a SA 'till I saw yours - in the flesh.

Only an observation but I don't see any dangly bits on that meercat - is this indicative of the response from Mrs D?

Hope not! But then again - as the title says - you have been naughty.

Any forecast yet?

Must meet for a beer when I get back - end April/beginning May - hope to see a new addition to the wrist by then.

Good point. How is the resale for the two. Would one be any less valuable?

the destro is worth around $1500 more at resale but you'll have to pry it from my cold lifeless wrist first! :lol: :lol:

I'd probably settle for finding one at list price... When you mention 111 over here, the dealer just nods and says yes that's a popular one.
