Some 6602's
I quiet like the Seiko 6602 range and they come in a lot of different models, but without a doubt my favourites are the ones fitted with the dauphine hands. I have been waiting to try pick up a decent one (so much junk about) and then within the space of a couple of hours I saw these two on auctions due to end and I just had to have them. At approx 36mm these are quiet a nice vintage dress watch, maybe not for everyone but in my opinion a watch that should not be overlooked. These are not rare as such but they are getting hard to find in decent original condition, from what I understand some of the models are being canibalised for the hands which are the same as used in the Seiko chrono's. First to arrive was the 6602-8990 Sea Horse from January 1967, crystal a little scuffed but a new one is enroute. The bracelet it came with was non Seiko and just a piece of junk, it was replaced with a nice black leather strap which suits it quiet well.The second arrival came earlier today and it is

Where should I sell a SA Pro 1 band?

The 210 strap dilemma
As you can see below, i am wearing my 210 on a black alligator .... Awhile ago I saw a OEM darkbrown 27/22 alligator with darkbrown stitching on ebay ....

Now i am obsessing about the strap .... Do I need darkbrown, should i go the Panerai boutique and buy at retail ... Or should i stay black .... Please help.

514
soooooo i received a package in the post today (and yes i'm sorry for the crappy iphone photos)The new panerai 514 47mm steel 1940 case with the hand wound p3000 movement. First impression, suddenly it's panerai almost making a sensible normalish watch.I tend to wear only the 47mm models (with one exception) so here it is with the rest of the collectionFor a 47mm panerai it's thin, here is it compared to the 448the 372and the 368Also the face is the same size as the 448, i was expecting it to much more similar to the 372 as the cases are a similar designWhen i first saw the press release photos, i wasn't that impressed, i didn't like the date, i wasn't sure about the subdial. But actually what they've made is a very wearable everyday panerai, something with all the grace and simple design of panerai but in a more usual format. I suspect this is going to become my everyday wear to the office watch.The interesting bit is the strap changing, for the 1940 models, panerai has going over to
