Icon10 I'm all happy again

Camped outside the AD this morning until they opened, and instantly bought the 140, so i am now the blingiest blinger on planet bling

Unfortunately it's dark over here and my pitiful camera can't handle taking pictures in poor light, so these pictures aren't really that great, but i'll get more done soon.

The best bit for me, instead of the rubber strap it came with a spare honey croc with white stitching, my all time favourite strap, i don't know if it was meant to come with two croc straps, but i'm not bothered as it's about £100 more than the rubber strap to buy

Congrats! The 140 is right up there with the very coolest Panerai I have ever worn and that includes the vintage and Pre-V's that I have worn. I just love the weight and look that it carries with it. Enjoy that beautiful watch with Pride and PASSION!

Ah, i think you've seen the ad on paneristi, to be fair i've always stated i wanted a 233, as it's my favourite panerai, so i'm trying to see if a swap is available, but only in the UK for a face to face deal, i'm not that bothered about selling it and have already turned down 6 offers, 3 for a swap and 3 for a cash sale

It's not easy trying to reach that dream PAM

Good to know the offers are rolling in. Hope it works for you.

Frustrating business it is. Never really getting to see these watches as they are so rare.
