On the surface, at first sight....
.... it seems to be a very .... "materialistic way" to feel like this.
But IMHO this would be only a short-sighted view.
I rather believe that the watch you are wearing is in different ways very "near" to you.
Most of all it accompanies you in almost every situation of life. You share so many memories, impressions, feelings with this "thing" that it quasi becomes a part of you.
And this is what you leave behind you. Even it is just for a short time.
Maybe that's the bottom line of it?
Best, Thomas

Summer is going to end
Dear Fellows, Summer is coming to its end, so it’s time to give my Submersible some deserved rest. But before the leaves start to fall and the sky turns to grey, i seized the opportunity to take a quick picture while i was walking along the lake of Neuchâ...
I swear I would be lucky to have a 372 or a Mamma Mia, I would often wear it. ;)
Great shot, my friend. Best, Nicolas
Why not both !
A 372 and a MM ! If so, i'll wear them the Hayek's way. One on each wrist ;) Best regards Fabio
That is the most logical choice. ;)
But I am still waiting to see if Panerai releases the small Egiziano. ;) So starting with the 372 would not be a bad thing... Best, Fabio. Nicolas
Great shot!
Yeah, autumn is going to come, BUT not yet... Lets enjoy this week - certainly in Switzerland, it supposed to be quite nice and sunny. I peronally wear my PAM125 more during the colder seasons, mainly because it is a black watch with a black strap. I like...
Thanks for your reply MCG
Glad to know you'll soon enjoy your 125. Wish the colder days last longer, in this way you'll be able to enjoy your Panerai for a longer period ;) Best regards Fabio
Great shot of your PAM305 Submersible!
For me nowadays, I seem to wear a watch for a long time and then switch to whichever watch my wrist desires. Cheers, Anthony
Thanks for your reply Anthony
It seems we share the same habit, wear a watch for a long period before to switch. Enjoy your 203 (if you're still wearing it these days) Best regards Fabio
Very nice shot!
I also usually wear my watches for a certain time before I allow them a little break. Sometimes I feel a certain kind of melancholy when separating from a watch I got accustomed to LIVE with. Do you know this - peculiar - feeling? As far as Panerai is con...
This funny, I have exactly the same feeling,
when I switch after a couple of days to another watch... ;-)

Hello Thomas,
Your interesting reply leads to a question. What if a person face some difficult time for a long period. How will it affect the way that person consider her/his watch ? Each time that person will look at it, it'll remind her/him those difficult times. The...
Hello Fabio, yes...
..... that\'s really an interesting question! Of course a watch is - physically spoken - just a simple "soulless object" and not part of us. But at the moment when we decide to choose and wear exactly this special watch (and not another one) we include it...
