5167 Lume
Does anyone know which lume is used on the 5167? I'm guessing c3 because of how strong it glows, but I'm not certain. Thanks

25th Birthday present came a little early! Incoming!!!
And at last it is my turn!After owning and wearing a BLNR daily for a while now, I have been on the hunt for this beauty.It was initially a debate between the Rolex 116619 Smurf or this Patek 5711.After a bit of thinking, and trying both on; I decided that the Patek was the one.I liked the idea of diversifying, and I also would be owning a completely different looking watch.Once I made the decision, I started the hunt.A few weeks ago I messaged a really great guy on this forum, who has now become my friend, and he coincidentally had a brand new one he was looking to part with.Fast forward, and I am now over the moon!!!This is a gift to myself to commemorate a recent step in my Job, as well as my upcoming 25th Birthday.I am extremely thrilled to own such a stunning piece, and feel blessed to have this duo at this stage of my life.After taking the watch to the service centre to remove some links, the woman over there was very kind enough to give me a travel case. Some pictures to share,

Back to Panerai- Incoming!
I've been without a Panerai for about a year and half now, so I thought it's about time for me to make my way back. I've always wanted to give the PAM 372 a try ever since I was bit by the PAM bug, but I was always hesitant about the size and other watches got in the way. I finally pulled the trigger yesterday and less than 24 hours later she is here! First impressions- I'm used to wearing 40mm Rolexes, so the size will take some getting used to. Luckily, I have 7 1/4 inch wrists and it seems to fit well on it. It's also super comfy for its size. This isn't the first time I've seen a PAM 372, but it's my first time handling it outside an AD and it sure gets better looking the longer you wear it. It's a real stunner in person. It's only been here for a few hours and I already have some Gunny and Bosphorus straps on the way

Ruud Van Dilemma
There's a lot of love for the BLNR on this forum. I have one and I like it but I'm pretty sure that I could live without it and the world would still spin. Now, the thought entered my head this morning about flipping it to pick up my next Pam.My dilemma is, am I just being impatient to pick up my next Panerai or do I really want shot of the BLNR? It does get worn. Each of my watches takes its turn in my rotation and gets worn for a week every time, although I must admit I was tempted to keep my 359 on for an extra week. I 'flipped' it this week for the 689 So, fellow Panerai fans, if you were stood behind me now, would you encourage me to move my BLNR for another Pam or would you slap me around the head, tell me to be patient and save the money for the 533 while keeping the BLNR?Next Pam will almost certainly be the 533 but I'll take Mrs Van D's views on the 233 first. I like the 233 but I'd leave it behind in the event of a zombie apocalypse for the 533. I like the 233 but I don't z
