Dude, your signature quoting Tommy Chong, is plagiarizing my location in my profile, which I created 7 years ago!

By the way, what is the control for, that is on the part of the dial that is facing towards your upper arm? It seems that it would be difficult to adjust unless the watch is off.

I wear a Rolex Submariner No Date.

I've always loved dive watches, and Rolex is quality and history which is why I love it. I wore an Omega Seamaster 300 for a while, but once I got the Rolex, there was no turning back!

Watches are an obsession, just like Audio

A true classic....I am a huge fan. Panerai is my passion, but Rolex is right up there.

Cheers,

My two current watches:

Exposure time on the Tag was over a second, hence the appearance of two second hands.

That is my all-time fave Link. Beautiful. Quartz and Auto, correct? I almost bought one in the silver dial myself.

None of the Calibre S models are Auto... IIRC the movement in the Calibre S takes up so much space, that the watch would have to be huge to accommodate automatic movement.

I think Panerai makes great looking (and functioning) watches, and I am sure I will own one in the future someday

I could be wrong but I think they use ETA movements as the ebauche and go from there with their own assortiment.

I've always thought that Panerai were a little too big and I've never really been a fan of crown protectors but I like the simplicity of the dial. If I had to choose, though, I'd go with the Luminor Marina in Ti with a black dial.

the answer is it depends on the watch panerai does not solemnly use ETA for their movements

Love watches, can't afford to buy the one's I really want.

I spent a good portion of shopping time on the last cruise looking for this one. I wear it daily.
