Pics of the new POs
I like the new Planet Oceans. I was thinking about buying the 8500 with orange bezel but I think I prefer the new one which is more subtle and also interested to see how the rubber aspect works. I also like the new numerals and the ceramic dial which gives the dial a translucent effect like the LM LE. Looking forward to seeing it for real.

Strapped
About 6 weeks ago, my beloved Omega X-33 NASA kevlar strap broke. It lived a good life, providing me with several years of faithful service.That meant I had to use the Speedy on a 6 years old 40 dollar strap that was carefully shaped to look like alligator. It was okay, but it too was showing the age and for something at that price point I just could not ask for any more years of service out of it.Long story short, I stopped by Bachendorf's on my way home and I bought a Hadley Roma Select Crocodile strap, 20/18 with white stitching. It was quite pricey but they made me a good deal on it so I got it around 40% off. It did not look much different from the cheap one I had for half a decade but once on the watch, it made all the difference and I think it looks great!One dilemma remains:Should I use it with the deployant that I stuck on it as soon as I got home and extend the life or should I use it with the OEM Omega buckle that I bought for the kevlar strap?

Panerai pam 512
I was interested in this reference about a year ago, but the appeal, for one reason or another, faded. However, it's back on my radar. I was hoping current or former owners might be willing to chime in, as well as anyone else who has considered the reference.Also, would be interested to see it side by side with a speedmaster if possible..Thanks!

116610LN and 116660 sitting at AD��s window
If you are having a hard time sourcing a Sub Date I have good and bad news for you. The good is that one is sitting at the window of my local AD, just waiting to be purchased. The bad is that you have to come to Bras��lia-Brazil to get it. Besides the watches in the pictures below there were an Explorer, an Air-King, some OP in the windows too. No Daytonas and no GMT's and no steel Sky-Dwellers, but I didnt come in to ask if they have it in stock. PS: the prices are in brazilian currency.
