Just registered, and so I thought I should take a few minutes to introduce myself and say "Hi"
So, what can I say about myself? My name's Rich, I'm 43 years old and I live in London, England, with my wife of (almost) 13 years. I've been collecting watches for around 3 years now, and always been a fan of Panerai, although it's only over the last 12 months or so I've been able to afford to start a small Panerai collection. I say small...... it's currently two (told you it wasn't large - actually it probably doesn't count as a "collection"
), with a third due in around a weeks time
I'm not sure what the formalities are on this forum, but the others I read end to want to see pictures when a new member introduces themselves, so here are my two current Panerai.
First up, a PAM024 I've had for a year or so. I love this watch, but in truth when I have the funds I intend to sell this to part fund a 243. I know I'll find it very hard to let the 24 go, but I just love the softer lines of the 1950's case
and my second, and more recent Panerai, is something I'm absolutely smitten with - a PAM233. I wanted one of these since they were released and finally managed to find one a month ago. It's been the only thing on my wrist since
I hope you like the pics, and I hope to be around for a while to learn and maybe contribute a little to the community here
