My holiday visit to Florence / Firenze

[Timepiece]

I just got back from a holiday in Toscana (or Tuscany) Italy. We stayed near the beautiful city of Florence (or Firenze).

A visit to the famous Panerai boutique near the Duomo Plaza was definitely on my list...

...Only to find out at the end of my visit at 14:00 that the shop opens at 16:00.

Well the good thing is I performed the tourist ritual and touched the bronze pig's nose at the Mercato Nuovo meaning I will return some day to Florence.

Some other interesting watch shops where you can find a lot of (the repped) models gathered can be found on and around the Ponte Vecchio area.

For IWC and Breitling:

For Patek Philippe:

For Corum:

Also Omega is represented heavily, but mainly inside the AD stores.

That led me to another question: Which country sells Panerai at the lowest price?

Thanks!
