There are just a small handful of truly meaningful watch stores in the United States. This group of forward-thinking, daring, and creative jewelers are, in some cases, responsible for breeding the generation of watch buyers that kept the entire industry afloat during some of its hardest times, and built it into the period of development and innovation that we are currently enjoying.

Despite all the crap surrounding this watch I have to say it's pretty cool. It's just simple Panerai no frills needed.

Changing around my collection
Recently I took the opportunity to change around my Rolex collection a little. After long hours of thinking, consideration and with a heavy heart I decided to sell my SD43, the rational was I already have the Sub and the SD4K and wanted something a little different and not so big. After a couple visits to AD's and narrowly missing out twice I finally pulled the trigger on the 116613LB a couple of weeks ago. To finish my collection and to add a little more colour I've managed to get myself on a list whatever that means these days? For the new GMT 126710 BLRO, so the long patient wait starts now.[IMG][/IMG]
