Is it the 233?
Greetings friends. I have had numerous Panerai references over the last decade. Enjoyed them - then sold them for someone else to enjoy. I am looking to settle down with one watch. Then concentrate on straps. I am not a multiple high(ish) end watch guy - so says she who must be obeyed - so it's just one single watch for me. I am pretty much decided that the one should be a Panerai. But which one? Have had multiple times the following references...000, 005, 111, 380, 372, 1000. Very much like aspects of each one. The 000 and 005 and 380 sausage dials are sexy. Have always liked them. But ~4k for a basic movement and closed case back always left me a little bit lacking. The 111 is nice, but kind of regular. The 1000, meh.The 372 I have had on 3 different occasions. I believe it is one of the best watches in photographs - but on the wrist it frequently didn't sing to me. Not sure if it's too large, or that a ~6k watch with a plexiglass dial turned me off. Perhaps if it was 45mm...Tha

AD to keep warranty card
Added my name to waiting list for 116610LN and was called back 2 days later to say one was in stock (was not expecting that!).Now a few months on I have added my name to the list for the 116610LV. If your not on the list you'll never get to the top of the list! I was told between 2-5 years. It was explained that the AD will keep the warranty card for a period of 12 months before releasing it. This is even the case for repeat Rolex customers.It is obviously to prevent people buying and selling fast. Not my intention. Intend on selling LN once in possession of LV.I'm just wondering if this is common practice
