I have been reading the various boards for just over a year and I had been able to avoid the Panerai craze. For at least 11 months, nothing. But you guys just had to keep posting those pictures of the 111h. Little by little the damm thing grew on me. Finally, I just had to break down and get one. So now I have been living with my 111 for just over a month. I have ignored all your posts about the pams and how much you hate the rep bands, AND I WAS HAPPY. But as I wore it and wore it, I began to hate that rep band. So today I received in the mail a Maestro band from TC straps, AND I AM HAPPY again. So could you now be so kind as to stop posting about whatever else I am missing, and allow me to continue to be happy? Your co-operation in this matter would be most appreciated. Thanks!
