Arrival of ???

So I went to the AD yesterday to view Blancpain Fifty Fathoms as I was quite interested in getting it. Tried it on but it just didn't do it for me. The FF was wasn't smiling at me. Suddenly, I heard a call from the Panerai counter....a 233 was singing to me! oh....such a beautiful calling....such temptation....and happily i gave in to the temptation and brought the 233 home!

will post some pics later.

Another 233 owner here, the watch is truly a thing of beauty, all the class of the old Panerai's but with the new in-house movement and looks of the new PAMs
