My first Panerai
It's here. Panerai 390 with all the bits and a couple of extras from DavidSW. Love the tobacco dial and gold hands. The slightly domed crystal is amazing. Thanks to all the Panerai enablers, Ruud Van Driver, Nick h etc

Thanks Nick. It's really comfortable. I just think any bigger and it wouldn't feel right.

I'm not sure how to quote each and every one of you on one post, but thanks for your good wishes! It's the first watch I've bought for a long time that I haven't had second thoughts about for a long time!
