What watch do you typically wear on vacation?.........................
Its that time of year now over here in the US, summer vacations! Just curious to see what everyone wears when going away. For the last 5 or 6 years I change the strap on my Panerai 189 to a rubber one and head off with that. The watch has been all over the place and is still ticking! I think only once it has been recognized which is perfect for me.
Interesting enough, I reversed my Panerai strap one time by accident and really ended up liking that look better reversed. I don't know if anyone else has ever done this but its worth a try if you haven't!
