Well done Mik,

I had a 210 for a bit & then a 232 but that was a while ago, i recently got to craving and retooling my palette for a Panerai after being without for sometime ... here you go, happy to present a Fiddy of my own:clap:

Obligatory wrist shot...

More pics!!! It's a real alternative to the 372/422 I'm looking at. Oh and if I could trouble you for a review sometime soon... tomorrow? :rofl:

Agree Mike, it is in the same arena on many points, what i like about is actually the quirkyness: the way the numbers are warped by the domed crystal, the crown lock works down to up, the "panerai" scribble all over the movement...

All these things are not aesthetic/ergonomic choices i would have made, but together , i think they create a watch that will always be a bit special, even if they decide to release something similar down the road.

I also like the smaller fonts on both the words & the arabics & the fact that it is not an inhouse movement:cheers:

PS
1) the subtlety of the gold hands & how the gold comes in and out of view.
2) the seconds & the 1950 text are also very subtle.

I guess there's my review:rofl:
Now when i get a chance to get my proper camera on her, i hope to share some great pics.

Congrats dude !!!! The most gorgeous Luminor there is ...

Congrats!

Great pick up, congrats!

wow! I'm speechless. A real beauty.
You got to be happy looking down at that.
Cheers! and wear it in the best of health.
:cheers:

What a score!! Congrats. And thanks for the review.

very nice. have you measured it? is it really 47?? your wrist shots shows you can easily handle it.

Congratulations it looks amazing

Wow, amazing watch. I sold a 232 and 372 along with a Seadweller a few months ago to buy one of these. Loved it for the short while I had it but just couldn't justify £15000 in one watch, I actually enjoyed the diversity of having the option to wear 3 different watches so I traded it back in for a 232 and picked up a bargain priced brand new 372 and managed to get a 14060 and a 114270 with the left over funds. Happy happy happy.

If I could have justified keeping the 127 I would have done but for me the 372 does the same job......dare I say it.......better!?!? PLEXI

Amazing ...

Daaaamn!!! :yum:
It doesn't get much better than the Fiddy!
Enjoy that beautiful beast!

The Fiddy is diddy !!! Well done sir :thumbsup::clap::cheers:

Beautiful fiddy, enjoy it..

Very nice. The prices for these are crazy though.
