Great write up Mike.
Been in love with the FF for some time now. Your wrist shot with the sailcloth strap - perfection! Continue to wear it in good health! ![]()

I'm considering buying one. Does this sit larger than say a Panerai submersible 44mm?

The biggest con with this watch is resale value. I couldn't give it away when I decided to sell. Ended up selling the FF on sailcloth for $5500. Lesson here: if you want one, buy pre-worn.

I'd pick one of these up for $5500 if I could find someone local / near an AD to verify authenticity...

Love it I am seriously considering a Bathyscape I like its under the radar looks. It will be that or a JLC (Second hand), you cannot fault a Rolex Sub but they are just so common and I have owned one before, I am looking for something a little more special.
