I want a big watch.
The BIG Watch Forum

I don’t even know what to think about this video. Someone from the Big Watch Forum grabbed a 3 minute long video of the insides of their Panerai. Amazing or sick?

BIG Watch Forum member Nad travelled to Shanghai. Luckily for us, he took about 500 pictures of the flight, his Panerai GMT, and the carpet. It’s actually quite fun.

Nice new blog all about the biggest watches on Earth. I’m not a big watch lover, but I love me some Panerai. If I had the dosh and most of their movements weren’t so boring, I’d get one. Best feature? Their Panerai picture of the day. It’s watch porn.

Ahem… excuse me, is that a Panerai? Hell no, it’s a hunk of crap, my good man.

Check out this limited edition wristwatch from DPHMI called the Black Stealth Knowledge. It looks like an Officine Panerai wristwatch. The case has an almost identical look to that of Panerai watches. It looks pretty good to me. It allows less affluent buyers to have the look of a Panerai without the price tag. In fact the price tag is only $199 US and it is not a knockoff. It even has an automatic movement like the real thing.

My next big watch, if I can afford it an my wife doesn’t kill me, could be a nice Panerai. I see all kinds of folks wearing them now, from business folken to rappers, but I still have a soft spot in my heart for the little Italian watch company that could.

That said, here’s a new blogger on the block, Paneraiblog.com. Looks good so far and it’s actually unshod territory, so that’s good. Take a gander.

Two great tastes that taste great together - the DeVille and the Luminor. I like the Luminor better - the DeVille line is a little busy. But nicey nicey.

Hokey shmokes! I love the Rattrapante concept - a dual chronograph function that alllows for split measurements - and it looks like Panerai did a pretty good job on theirs. Just enough beef and just enough cool. Luckily, Niffko on the Big Watch Forum go one and deigned to show it off.

A fellow over at the Big Watch Forum purchased the following watches, just for kicks, because he’s getting older and does things in fours now:

More power to him.

My latest acquisitions. I do it in 4 because Im older and my time to wait is shot. [BigWatchForum]

Holy crap. I don’t know how I missed this thing. That’s a Panerai of original manufacture, with a completely Panerai-tastic movement with TWO GMT hands and a zero-set time feature that springs the seconds hand to noon when you set the time. Plus it’s got 8 days reserve in there. And look at the reserve indicator. Amazing.

They’re making 50 of these in platinum - $41,500, if you were innarested - and 200 in white gold - a bit more affordable at $23,200. Come on.
