I think I might be mad...I keep buying these things.
There is something beautiful in their simplicity, masculine, but refined. I adore them. 50 or so more straps in cases as well...








Yes, I know a couple IWC homages snuck into the second box.
;)

That's a lot of hand winding...very nice

The majority of my PAMs are manual as well. There's something fascinating in the the gesture of winding your watch when you put it on your wrist in the morning.

Great collection erekose, keep it going!

Impressive collection!! Congrats. :)

A newbie question, I know of the luminor- and luminor 1950 case, but how does the Bettarini case looks like?

This is true. Love the handwinds for their character and reliability.

Bettarini is the designer of the Luminor case.

I think the same.

Very good collection, Erekose. Which one do you use more this summer?

This collection gathers most of the classic manual watches that got me into Panerai in the first place. Congratulations.

Depends on weather and if it's a workday. No rain and workday I can wear leather. The Artkos and 359 have waterproof leather for the hotter days and I will go rubber if wet weather.
Really crap weather and I usually wear my Seikos or Orient's.

Superb ! , Congratulations ! :)

@erekose I would like to ask you , I have been really hesitant on the Deep gauge Tuna, since she did not get good reviews nevertheless I really like it but I am a lil scared that it would look like a cheapie... How would you compare her to the 569 please with both in hand ? Many thanks in advance I would love to have your insight ;)

cheers :)
