johnboy777 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 If you could only own one rep...which one, and why? You're not allowed to own any other watch - and you'd be wearing it day-in and day out. I only have three reps, but I've owned a lot of gens over the years. I'd have to say one of the nicer Sub or datejust reps might be my choice. But I've never owned a Pam or the really high end watches, such VC or the like. Cheers, John H.

Indyclmbr Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 That's tough. I have had a bunch and pared it down, then added some more only to cull it back. My favorite three are a 2893 EXP II, the 2893 063 and the 192. If I could only have one, I'd go with this one. Climb on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathaniel Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 I suppose, particularly for a daily beater, it would probably have to be my Pam Luminor chrono. One dealer calls it a 250, but the Panerai website says the SS bracelet one is a 236. I've never posted a picture before, but here's one from the official Panerai site: actually, I am unable to paste a picture into this post. How do you do that? I don't know. But I am able to past the bookmark and here it is, on the Panerai site. http://www.panerai.com/img/2/prodotti/1143...2000236_ind.jpg Nathaniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitmic Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 That's really tough!!! Omega PO 45mm Orange Ingy Pam111h One of these... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookoo Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 It's a tough one, because I will forever be on that hunt for the watch that will change my life. When I buy a watch, I am normally satisfied for that first day. Then the hunt for the next watch begins. When does it end.. lol.. But at an attempt to answer your question. The SMP 300 bond. It has gotten more wrist time then all others. Close second was the PAM 111h that I now regret selling . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usil Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Extreamly tough to answer since multiple watches fit multiple situations and REPs allow us to choose so easily. But I guess I would have to shoose my Fiddy since it gets the most wrist time. Usil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crystalcranium Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Rolex Sub SS. Embarassing answer for me. I own many watches that are more interesting and beautiful but they are situational watches. I'm also ashamed to admit that if I'm going to wear the same watch every day, it's going to be a watch peoplenotice and ask questions about!

bigpops Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Of the ones i have, i'd have to go with either my black sub, or my LV sub. Of the ones i don't have, i'd go for an MBW/WM white (not the usual red/double red) 1680 or 1665. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 I reckon regular readers here would have already filled in what By-Tor and Ubi would have chosen, and just to keep them happy, they guessed mine right too. ps.

If this were my criteria, I would wear the Navitimer. I've been asked about that watch more times than any other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section8 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Tough choice. I only own one rep so far and two gens, and i've got a rock solid beater watch in my quartz swiss army - that sees quite a beating when i'm working on my car. I guess if I had to pick one gen to wear all the time it would be the noobmariner. Good rep, but not so expensive that i would mind wearing it while covered in oil and grease and could also wear it while dressed up for work.

This how I feel about my PAM 196. Except, since it's not a Rolex, the attention is kept to a minimum, which is how I prefer it. Most comments are along the lines of "Wow, that's a cool watch. What is it?" One time I got "Is that a TAG?" hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jraines87 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 If I could only own one rep it would probably be this As far as replica watches, I'd have to say PAM 005 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoman Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 breitling - 2 tone evo or 2 tone crosswind franken i'm about to build ok, the 2 tone aren't out yet, but it will be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highflyingclive Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 No doubt - Pam 063. Or SMP 300m GMT... damn... the SMP has a et bezel, which is handy for timing parking meters and cooking eggs... but the 063 is so much smarter. Can I have one on each wrist?

jeff g Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 This one. Or maybe this one. Ok, SMP Black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
700club Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) very easy to answer, MBW 16610, my favorite watch in the entire world! Edited December 4, 2006 by 700club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craytonic Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 111h; I love panerai but think they are way over priced & could never justify the $ for a real one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 If I could answer that question I probably wouldn't be here so often. Ubi's Daytona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
