Visit to Singapore PAM Boutique
Located at the ION shopping complex in Orchard district, this is the flagship (largest) *Panerai store in all of Asia. *So I won't be seeing anything more spectacular in Hong Kong, Japan, etc. *This was it and I was impressed. *Better than the Rolex, Muller, Omega, Hublot, Breguet to name a few. *But right on par with the IWC Boutique. *Rightfully so as they are Richmont family members and the patron experience is all about living room lounging!These model subs were everywhereStaff showing some locals a few in house movement pieces*I overheard them ordering OEM straps so unfortunately I couldn't go over and watch them package up a new watch with Boutique swag thrown in. *I always get giddy whenever anyone makes a watch purchase.*I watched some videos and flipped through the special edition catalogueI'm pretty stoked that my host here in Singapore is going after a piece he has been eyeing for a long while. *Working a deal for a 26k in the USA. *Massive collection of prints I had to take

Custom Bezel Inserts
I love my Ball Trainmaster Pulsemeter COSC so there are times when I don't want to wear it as it might get damaged. I have bought a cheaper second hand watch with a similar movement and made my own bezel insert.I have been looking for sources of custom made inserts but found a youtube video describing how to print water resistant vinyl stickers for cars on a normal printer. I bought some printable adhesive vinyl sheets and worked out the placement of each marker using the formula Angle=15x360/BPM for timing over 15 mins.I designed the insert on publisher and cut the insert out with a cutting compass from a craft store.The result is not perfect but the insert can be replaced easily when it wears out.I was wondering whether I would be able to obtain a proper custom made bezel insert at a reasonable price?

Dsom
Hi members,I see some talk about the omega dsom so wanted to share my experience. Well I got one, liked it since i first saw pics almost a year ago. It is a sharp, extremely comfortable (because it is so light), very accurate, very unique watch. Yes it is not cheap by omega stds. But I feel we also pay more than we should for Rolex as well ;)I suggest see it in person. Here are some pics. Wrist: 7 1/4Cheers

PAM 115 vs 219--A Few Questions
Good afternoon TRF, I posted in the Panerai section fairly recently as I decided I'm ready to buy one and would like a left-handed (Destro) model. While someone here recommended the PAM 123 which I looked up and instantly loved, I decided the $10k+ price tag is more than I'd like to spend, especially considering this will be my first. I have narrowed my search to a 219 and a 115. Both are around the same price (both used). I am partial to the 115 because of the second hand but have a few questions/reservations. Does anyone have any insight as to which model holds its value better? I know many people here say don't worry about the value just buy what you like but this is important to me so I hope y'all understand . Also, the 115 does not come with any accessories (box/straps etc). While there are mixed feelings on this when it comes to Rolex, I am wondering what the consensus is when it comes to Panerai? I get the sense it affects value more than Rolex but I'm really not sure. Unfortun
