If you don’t mind me asking, which TD did you use to source this and do you know which factory it came from?
Usually it’s watches which slip under the radar that I like, but there’s something about this 41mm OP and the green dial version!

Hi

bizarrely I purchased this on eBay as it was listed as a Parnis the picture was blanked out so it effectively was marketed as a sterile Parnis in Tiffany blue

I paid £75

when I paid for it the seller messaged me and stated that it was actually a Rolex but due to listing rules etc etc he had to list it as a Parnis and was happy to refund me if I didn’t want to purchase it anymore

he stated that it was a U1 factory but I’m not 100% certain on that as the clasp on the U1 is the ones found on Submariners etc but this one has a copy of the new style OP41 clasp

so short answer it’s possibly a U1 factory

This is a late entry for yesterday's wristies. It was too late to enter one last night; today was very busy -- including watching hours of the Impeachment of our head sociopath. Gold help us... .

Yesterday's "ride" was this old SEIKO DIVER (Pepsi bezel) on a dark blue diver's strap. It's the 100M water resistance version & has great lume -- influenced by ANY light source. I believe I acquired M2M, but I can't be sure. dave:

Hello, Group!

Today is PAMSDAY in my area so it was important to wear one today, this "don't know the model number" PANERAI automatic with an engraved rotor and a full faced dial, which is a change from your average. Big watch (50mm with crown) with sandwich dial and great lume. The strap is one of those VERY soft, smooth fabrics, which I'm considering another strap for this piece. dave
