Wow, just got delivery of my order from the "3 for (nearly) the price of 1" Mario Paci BB sale that E just had.

I'm stunned. Here are the pics. From left to right we have:

1. Mario Paci Private Stock in Cognac -- 24mm
2. Mario Paci XII in L'abbronzatura (I think) -- 26mm
3. Mario Paci 8 in Natural -- 24mm

I couldn't be more pleased! When E said we wouldn't be sorry, man did he mean it!!!!








Thanks again, Elliot! :D

excellent

-

You lucky, lucky ba$tard!! :D

I have 3 of the same (diff sizes) - but I bought mine individually :? (E. did give me a Xmas 45% off the L'abbronzatura, hereafter the NL = Natale l'a ... :) )

I LOVE the MP 8 - this is on my 201A, the colour change is amazing.

I also bought a GeF cordovan in Marrone - it's awesome! Pics this weekend ...

HNY 2007!!!

Thanks, Sam and Brad.

Sam, the 26mm Natale is going to go on a custom 6154 that I'm ordering from Davidsen, the MP Private Stock is probably going on Davidsen's 111H once it's ready. The MP 8 is going to go on a base dial watch, hopefully a 201A like Brad's (minus the custom Enzo work on the dial).

I also got a 24mm Camel skin strap from E that is gonna look great on the new 082 that Davidsen is making. That light leather with the Ti case and blue dial will look HOT!

Brad, how soft is that GeF cordovan?

Very satiny smooth, silky finish. I have feelings of guilt that I will be wearing something from a horse .. :(
[ and I totally ban exotics that need to be preserved - don't buy Pangolin and other rare species!! :evil: ]

But the GeF looked so good - had to get it. May put it on a 036 ... or a white dial 055.

I was also thinking of a light tan / camel for my 082 - not trying to copy your taste, peeps, it's just that the 082 - as you say - will rock with lighter colours [smilie=thumbsup.gif]

No problem, Brad. I can't take any credit, I got the idea from BOB's "Tantalium" strap that is a similar, light tan color. :wink:

Hmmm, I might have to pick up one of those cordovan straps. :twisted:

LOL! Have to give you this for being a brazen 'Cordo-MoFo' :D - and hey, I can't be hypocritical, I like my horse bum's skin - just don't want it that recognized 8)

I was thinking about putting my XII NL on my 187 .... right now the 187's on a MP PS Cognac - which rocks! - and the XII 26 is on a 127; the 24/24 XII is on a 172.

OK, need to go and photo my new straps for this post .... :wink: Wife will groan and roll eyes :lol:

Awesome straps. If you decide you don't need all three, shoot me a PM. I'll take any of the three.

Just ordered a MP1 in Tan, the "Original" for the much anticpated 082 ... think of this strap as the stork, prefacing the 082's 'birth' - OK, that's too whimsical! :)

here's a photo of a MP1 "Original":

Nice pics peepshow. I have the same cognac and natale straps on the way and these are the first MP straps purchased. Sure do have a bunch of new straps from Elliot now.

Indeed it does! Nice...

Many thanks chaps, I was one of the many who benefited from E's strap sale during the hols :)

These MP XII's are dynamic, mine are changing - as does the MP 8 Naturale, tho', this is a XII on a 172:

Brad - that shot is awesome. I would say that is the best wrist shot I have ever seen. Looks great.
