a Ferrari Watch will never go out of fashion
Experts suggest that a Ferrari Watch will never go out of fashion and hence, it hardly matters that in which year it was originally created. Depending upon your lifestyle, you can either pick up a stainless steel watch or go for the one, which has a leather strap. Consider this watch to be a prized possession, one that you would definitely cherish for a really long time

Question on strap for ROO 44 SS
I have a ROO 44 SS, I was also given an AP Bands black horn back with red stitching. I have two questions, first what size is the tang buckle that comes on the 44 is it the same as the diver? Second question, what are your thoughts on putting a horn back with red stitching on this watch. Not sure if it is too much. Watch already has a lot of wrist presents, and don't want to go overboard with look at my watch. Thank you in advance.

Seriously considering a 5167a Aquanaut. Owner opinions?
Sorry, this might be long-winded but it's a BIG purchase and I hope you don't mind a couple of minutes reading about a first world issue! :-D I don't know what's up with me lately. I keep picking up watches I've either always been uninspired by, or disliked.Today was no different as I passed a Patek dealer. There was an Aquanaut staring at me in the window and I was suddenly filled with trepidation, as I knew entering the store most likely wouldn't be great for my wallet!The Aquanaut has always stupidly/idiotically/crazily/mentally sat in my mind as the poor man's Nautilus. I now see the error of my ways as I'll explain below. I see how my judgement has been skewed from reading posts on forums created by people who will probably never even own a PP, or at least try an Aquanaut. People with inferiority complexes most likely, and therefore people who probably can't see what IMO, they appear to be missing. That's the power of marketing I guess, as it makes us feel the need for the more ex

Please help me understand ...
I'm trying to understand the love for Panerai. And I don't mean this at all disrespectfully. Stylistically, it's seems sorta pedestrian but also very utilitarian. I see them and don't really know what to think. I don't understand them but I want to understand them and why people love them. Is there some unique history, build quality, a certain utility element, production rarity? Again, I'd like to know more from people who appreciate them. Thanks.
