I'm a noob pannie-crazy fresh from the hot pot. I didn't figure I'd be able to part with $3K for an oversized watch, yet the design has intrigued me for years now...
Then when I had my first pannie rep (just about 5 days ago), I just couldn't believe it can be that captivating. When I used to be sub-crazy for even longer time, my sub rep thrill lasted only for a few days and my life went on as per normal. But with this 005, my life changed! I can't stop looking at the watch, and I can't stop pining for MORE! I'm already starting to eye for my next pannie.
I think it's the design. It's 44mm oversized face is simply minimalistic. While many other watchs tend to include so much details in the design while others have clean but too much markers, the simple base/marina dial is just enough to draw a second look by the form.
What's more? Unlike many other watches where the look is only complete with specific bracelet/straps and changing to something else are only regarded as taboo, pannies tend to be 'personalizable'. The same pannie can give a different vibe and personality just by the change of the bracelet/strap.
