First watch landed late last week and i have enjoyed it more then ever! It is The Panerai 243 and it was love the first time i strapped it on! It has a 1950's style case in 44mm size and this is just the perfect package for me. A big thanks to Jeff our very own Paneristi resident for answering all my PM"s and helping me choose between the 243 and the new 305 I have never had a harder time deciding between two watches in my life! They are both just outstanding watches IMO! Now for the quick photos i warned you about
I will take better photos asap but these are all i have for now.
If You are ever thinking of a Panerai i strongly suggest talking with Jeff as he pointed out the pros and cons of both watches to me that were very helpful! Thanks again Jeff!
The second watch is a Crux CX-1 short and sweet on this one. I loved my CX-4 so much I wanted another model with a black dial so i choose the CX-1 mainly because of the dial. I loved the applied markers so the choice was very easy. I also had a Savage strap that i had not found a home for so it worked out great on the CX-1 and Scot from Savage Straps deserves a plug here for such outstanding leather work! Here again are some quick photos...
So there you have it, a 20 min start to finish write up. Sorry it is not more detailed but there are others that i am sure can do both watches more justice both with better photos and write-ups.
Thanks for checking them out guys and I will work on some better photos as I would love to get better at taking watch photos and make that somewhat of a hobby.
