Weekend sports watch

Well, after wearing the DayDate yesterday, it was time for a rubber strap watch. I have looked at IWC before but never considered it as an option, until I tried this baby on! WWWHHHHOOOOOAAAAA!!!! Needless to say, this is from the same dealer I bought my Panerai (Luminor Marina), which I never considered it as an option, until I tried this baby on
....it looks like I have to stop trying these babies on!!!!

Enjoy the pics (yes, I am a LOUSY photographer!!)

Well, I like the Panerai because of the clean and simple design; it just looks great. However, the Aquatimer has so much more than you can actually see on the pictures. The amount of detail in, say, the indices is VERY nice, and it makes it a perfect watch for either jeans or suit. I don't know if I would wear the Panerai w/rubber strap with a suit, but I would certainlly wear the Aquatimer.

I do like them both, and it is amazing how changins the straps on the Pam gives you a new watch.

That IWC is a great looking watch. I think it is fabulous looking on the rubber strap as well. Does it have an exhibition back?
