Thanks for that, Jim. Panerai are rarer than rocking-horse poo here in Australia:D.

Mine is a PAM 063 GMT on OEM SS bracelet, but I am about to change out the OEM bracelet for an aftermarket one (just to save the wear and tear), because the old 063 is getting some more wrist time now that the weather here has warmed up a bit.

But for something completely cool - the PAM052 is a winner imho. There was one on the bay for silly money from the UK, and it is a 40mm version, but, well, lets just say I didn't know I had that much drool in me!!  Bidding has ended, but the item number is: 300164495777 . If you can view the item - scroll down to see some of the best photos I have seen yet of the Luminor auto chrono. Haven't seen that one in Australia.

Your collection is nice (love that BRE..... ITLING rubber strap on the Superquartz). The chrono is advertised as being only half a millimetre larger in dimensions than the Colt II, but how about a wrist shot to see how the two compare. Does the chrono "wear" a lot larger?

Have a terrific day!
