The front is gorgeous too, to be honest.

There are some lower cost ones in the range that are pretty awesome too.
That's 42?? Wow.


There is just SOMETHING about them that gets me. I dunno what it is. Didn't Breguet invent the tourbillon?

Movie they wager on when the plumper will die being fed the remains of last contestant unknowingly. You can be a feeder. Invite your plumper over and watch see if she kills you or thinks it sounds fun.

Yep... He invented most a ton of things. Tourbillon, Chronograph, Fusee chain, blued hands with little circles, a certain type of numeral still popular today, certain type balance spring, equation of time (pretty sure on that one). He is to horology what Einstein is to non-Newtonian physics. Not the only one to contribute, but the one on whose contributions most of the new stuff is built.

You can turn this on in the app by going to Setttings/ Threads.

Although you may regret it.

Yup, the Nautilus with the blue dial and moon phase. My guy had been sitting on it for a while. Just moved it to my cousin for $38k! I was livid he didn't tell me about it.

I have a 5227 in yellow with a black strap. 5960 is a beautiful piece. Still trying to see on in person.

This is the one I want. It's 42mm which is a little on the bigger side for me.

Fly to Vegas bro. I have never failed to find one there. I know where one is in Philly. Stainless, white face, bracelet... the exact one I would want. She place has a 5170 and a couple 5960s. I REALLY like the 5227 by the way. I think the half-hunter style... or what do they call it now... dust cover... heh... is pretty cool.

What are you rocking now, a 36?

Panerai's always feel bigger, as the cases are a lot thicker than other watches. That said, this shouldn't feel to weird coming from a 36.

Lol, I'm actually going there in a few weeks. Was planning on doing so sight seeing there, if you know what I mean.

The thing I like about the 5227 is that it's super understated. Like, no one bugs me about it unless they are a watch guy, in which case a nice conversation follows.

I am about 99% sure that I have no idea what you mean. heh And I am usually pretty good with nuance and innuendo. Damn!

I am with you on understated watches by the way. My best watches are the most unassuming. Precisely why I don't love Rolex or Panerai (or *gasp* Breitling) It isn't that they aren't decent watches, it is just that to me they scream "look at me, I have a big expensive watch on".

Haha, yes I remember reading about all of that during my information splurge. Which is one of the main reasons why I hope to have that brand as part of my collection, one day.

Nicely done nails .

A 42 Panerai will look a tad large on your wrist, imo. A nice 42 Rolex would look at home.

Lmao, exactly. Hence why I like wearing my Panerai. No one really asks me about it. Everytime I wear the Daytona, Yachtmaster, or Emergency, I always get unwanted attention.

I'm sure that requires coupling with one of your more... erm..."conservative" automobiles.

They should come out with an individual line of polishes. Mine would be Ferrari red all the time.
