V, Yup, I likee the Vespucci. It's on the list... Can't say that I'm planning on conducting any tests on my new (and first) baby (a 7 week old girl). I'm less a psychologist and more a philosopher really. She'll probably get [censored] with me for reading her Buber and Tillich instead of Spot and Barney. Banter aside, I'm not planning on wearing my snakeskin jacket (you've seen Wild at Heart?) and the 111H in client sessions. I generally hope/aim to help create "space" in sessions so don't want to clutter it up with too much of my stuff (literal and otherwise). So I guess I'm probably with your Mum on that one. I'll see what the thing is like in a few weeks time and make the call for sure then. As an aside, it can be quite handy for some clients to be able to notice the time on the therapist's watch... Thanks to all and I'm looking forward to contributing here! Khumzi

You see, you see, that's just what I mean!! You write a brilliant reply (thank you), full of excellent, considered and encouraging advice, and then you have to go say that!!! Sigh. But, I have a cunning plan... As you will no doubt know, shrinks of various hues are quite good at turning things around (to be of help to our clients); to wit, "So, I think you're saying that you find me rather dominating [i fidget with my Fiddy and cat o'nine tails]... I'm wondering how that makes you feel?" TWP here I come. Muah ha ha ha! UPDATE: Just took the plunge! Ordered the Mario Paci Special Edition "Allora a Ora" in Senape and the MP XIII "3646" in Nero! Oh, and am putting the finishing touches to an order with T for TWP's modded 111H (inc. the crown stuff, probably). Haven't quite decided on the movement yet...

Oh, you're good... v good...

:lol: Ahg, the first stone has been thrown!

SSurfer: Excellent comment re the lack of date. In truth I do use my watches to check the date from time to time but find that because I'm quite often planning meetings these days that I have a good memory for dates, etc. (Ha! How about a Moon phase PAM?! No, not really.) SubZero1: Yes, I'm definitely leaning that way, although I will check out the base models Vlydog suggests... Where's the style guru, Mlle Strap?! VBarrett, I'd really value your view too! Thanks, Khumz

OK, so here

Congrats and that strap does look good, esp with that style buckle. I'm surprised, given how most reviews suggest v poor quality rep straps on the PAMs. From where did you get it? I'm getting dangerously close to taking the plunge... Cheers, Khumzi (also a Norf London inhabitant)

The Polluce is stunning! Thanks for the introduction. It's just the type of watch I'm looking for at the moment - semi-formal with highly readable face/hands. I'm a psychotherapist and having a watch which the client/patient can read unobtrusively is useful. I had been thinking about a PAM but have been struggling with the sheer presence and statement that they make. Did you say that you found someone offering this as a rep? If not I'm almost up for flogging off one or two of my gens... Cheers, Khumzi
