It's either a Rolex, Omega or a Panerai.

No it's defiantly a Rolex. It takes a bit from all my favorite rolex watches.

I actually really like it, it really comfortable and has many bits I like that are useful 2 time zone support, crown is not so fiddly as GMT II. Polished centre links are great and clasp is a bit better then that on my daytona.

Present form my wife for valentines day.

Yes I went and sought out a 12: powerbook this week for my self. I have a 17" MBP and a imac, my wife has the same also. the only problem is being in the army, I was on exercise for the last few weeks. I ended up not taking my 17" as I did not want to throw it around. So I looked at a macbook air, but no drive and I just do not like the macbooks so ended up getting this little baby.

Here are some more photos, it gives you an idea of size. I have just upped the ram and about to install a 7200rpm drive and it will be fine for my every day tasks of browsing the web and itunes and watching films. Which is all I do on my other machines.
