Did I just commit a robbery? haha
So I've been scanning ebay for weeks for a nice APRO to replace by beloved RO Chrono I had to sell to fund the purchase of my new PP 5711/1R... I of course was looking for a bargain... never would have expected this however.. It was an independent guy (not watch seller on ebay), the account was 10 years old, with a similar rating to mine (190ish)... no negative reviews. He had this up for auction, so I asked what price he'd want to end the auction... he sent me $6500... I was dumbfounded... The watch is essentially brand new he said, was a gift and he's not a watch person and there are no dealers in Arkansas that even know what to do with it. He ships it Fedex overnight and I'll know for sure if this was the deal it looks to be tomorrow...AP RO 15400ST. OO. 1220ST. 02Did I do ok??? (ASSuming I didn't just get scammed out of 6500!!??)

Considering First PP: 5119r vs 5726 strap
Went to the AD last week and finally got to try on some PP's for the first time in my life!! The 5119r and the 5726 strap are standing out among the relatively few pieces that are within my humble budget.I currently have the AP diver (weekend) and a Rolex sea-dweller (daily) and what I am looking for in the next one is a watch that I can dress up with for events (cocktail parties, weddings, etc).I really love the 5119r's classic look yet the size of the watch is slightly small and I am just scared that I could only wear it in the most formal occasions. The 5726 has a beautiful dial, the complication and is a lot more versatile yet I find it hard to part with so much money for a steel watch!Besides a comparison of both watches, I am also very interested to hear your opinions on expensive steel watches.

Got a New 722
Just got a 722 with bracelet. Thought i'd post some pics since I haven't seen a lot of info about this model. 42mm and bracelet, very notPanerai . Recently sold 2 Rolexes and a Jaeger so I was looking to maybe purchase 2 new watches. 1 more expensive and 1 for whatever was left. I have had the 320 GMT before and was kind of thinking about Panerai again although it was a tad too big for my wrist. Was looking at the 682 but as it turned out I bought another watch on a rubber strap first so I needed something else. Went to the shop and tried on everything, found the 722 that just got delivered to the store and I am so pleased. 42mm, new bracelet which is very nice and it's a Panerai. First pic is of the 2 watches bought on Friday, 1 Panerai and 1 weird thing on a rubber strap:)Needless to say...Friday was a good day!

My First PAM Is....
The 277. . I am a novice when it comes to Panerai's but I just fell in love with the blue dial with the Rose Gold case. Love the GMT, power reserve & chrono complications. I wanted to seek your advise as to the pros & cons of the 277. Will it hold it's value, paid 25K. Is it the right PAM to own with a full inhouse movement and sandwich case. Please let me know your thoughts and would love to hear from past & present owners of the piece.
