Aaah, the Brooklyn Bridge.... That was quite a shock, indeed. [nt]
No message body
Was in a time when Panerai started to go down ( see Brooklyn bridge boutique edition) and my new 372 was running super fast more then two hours after winding

Let's say that....
there are companies and company managements that would not...ignore...the possibility of maximizing profit. Also, we're talking about a L.E. with a relative low cost and not a PAM21 I'm not justifying Panerai's actions by any stretch of the imagination, I...
The fact that Dr Bonati had his...own ways...it's beyond any doubt, in my mind.
The proliferation of L.E. in number ever higher (a 1500pcs L.E. is, IMO, a bad joke). Still the brand..exploded..after Asian buyers had enough of being "milked like golden cows" for every T-dialled model in circulation Had some of the "insiders" been a bi...
