I sold it though as I got another similar panerai which I like more and I had to finance the buy of a Bronzo Pam382… so I let it go for good reason. I could sell it to another paneristi who was really happy to have it now in his collection . ...  

A wonderful piece indeed and nice that it went to a good home 👌🏻👍🏻

... you may feel free of regrets. In any case you can replace it if you desire. The collectors journey is long and full of pieces that come and go... and sometimes return too! Keep enjoying your beautiful collection! Hagwe! Abel

Part of the journey 🍻

in the drawer with the gold plating peeling on the case. Surprisingly, it starts straight away and I just set it to see if it runs properly…. an old Favre Leuba from late 1980s?…. ETA movement… a spontaneous buy back then… seems not so long ago… ...  

Wasn’t even aware FL was still working at the time. Cool that you rediscovered something ‘new’ 👌🏻👍🏻

... It´s a beautiful classic watch which I´m sure you´ll enjoy so much wearing on your wrist. Thank you for sharing! Abel

I like it 👍

I love this one.

. . . since my first post on The Purists. I was in my third year of collecting Glashütte Original then, accumulating seven over the course of six years. As of a month ago, they're all gone. It's as though a chapter of my life has closed. The cause was a c...  

I have to say it feels unusual to think of you as GO-less. And I fully agree that the brand has managed some of the best executed PCs in the relatively affordable range. Any chance of a return of a GO for you going forward?

. . . when it was in production eighteen years ago. There were fewer than a hundred of these limited Karree 1845 models produced, if memory serves correct, mostly in steel with a handful in rose gold. I was close to pulling the trigger on the steel versio...  

Very nice one to have owned Art.

Once upon a time 😊

. . . that would still be in my collection today . . . . . . had I followed my gut instinct fifteen years ago. ...  

It surprised me so much to know you are presently without any GO and that even your beloved Karree is gone, but of course it is a very personal decision and reasons behind. Collecting is a long and meandrous journey. Who knows if there is another GO waiti... 

. . . of the passing days. And since retirement, there's no need to be reminded. That's essentially why I stopped wearing perpetuals. ;-)

... on the wrist, but I would love to get freed of time schedules and think about the pass of Time. (I wold like to own at least a Perpetual in my collection though) Lol! Best, Abel
