Have a few others, but my favorite at the moment is a vintage 1979 Rolex Submariner with original faded "ghost" bezel, other watches just sit in the box.
 



Sheer class!

My Titanium Homage Watch. :)
 

 
 


I had one of these but sold it when I got a real PAM0112. Does anyone know where to pick up this exact model? I can't find one with a mineral or sapphire back.
Also,
Power reserve is cool, but no chrono.. Just plain and clean like this one.

It says it has the 6497 mov't. Some Panerais have the same one. Does that mean it will keep time just as well and essentially be the same watch sans authenticity? I have never been a fan of replicas, but this isn't a bad deal.

The 6497 is a design. Who manufactures it still matters.

So I'm kinda looking for a new watch for myself. I'm thinking about getting a Seiko kinetic of some sort that's under $200 and for mostly casual or work wear. Nothing super formal or anything. Does anyone have any suggestions for some good review sites?

+1, excellent advice. Also, at that price point try to buy off the net, if where  you are is anything like in Canada it is mainly not good stuff availible for that price in stores, fashion watches and such!
