Hey there hi there ho there,
What's up fellow watch enthusiasts? I'm T, love watches, always have, started getting serious only in the last few years, have a small humble collection, a few seikos... spend way too much time online reading about and ogling watches, which is bad because it's time I don't have so I usually get very little sleep.
A couple of years ago I came across a picture of a Panerai and was immediately smitten. Researching "homage" watches I mentioned my PAM infatuation to a friend who was a little more invested in watches than I was, he immediately sent me a rep. It came into his possession via a bait and switch deal online where he was taken for quite a bit of money.
I love it, I wear it often and show it off, most people around here have never heard of Panerai but if ever asked I have no qualms telling them it's a replica.
everyone I show it to is usually more impressed by the movement, oooh shiny spinning things!
But this is not my first replica watch, I was given this Chinatown replica Rolex almost a decade ago.
not quite right
anyhow, just wanted to say hi. I'll be here, reading, looking at pictures, drooling, trying hard not to bust out the cc and buy every hawtness that catches my eye. (Franck Muller Crazy Hours and IWC Jones are at the top of the list, though)
look forward to reading your experiences, advice and reviews.
