Not a big fan of Panerai, Oscar, but that one actually looks very, very good.

Congrats on an excellent acquisition!! Wear it in good health.

Very nice indeed.
On our local news last night, they were showing the Pawn Shops in NYC are doing a booming business. While they were filming, a guy was pawning his Panerai. Right next door to the financial district.
