Looking for my version of the perfect watch, please help.
Hello all, I¡¯m new here and honestly haven¡¯t read too many post yet. Please forgive me if this has been covered recently. But I am just about to give up my search for any watch that has a particular list of functions. Because of my job I spend as much time working in darkness as I do light. Because of that I need a watch that has a backlight that shows most if not all the information on a watch dial. Such as Timex¡¯s Indiglo, however Casio¡¯s LED lights suck (which is on most of their G-shock), and therefore will not work. Casio¡¯s EL backlight is good, but they don¡¯t couple that with the other features I like. Citizen claims that only the Skyhawk fits my criteria, but at night the analog feature is useless. Now comes the picky part. I like watches that don¡¯t need battery replacements if at all possible. Like Solar, or Kinetic etc. Atomic time keeping, with a date that displays day of week, and day of month. All this coupled with an analog face. Oh, and it absolutely has to be water resis

Acquiring an AP

What's 3 digits and blue ... INCOMING
Good afternoon all, yes a very good afternoon indeed. FedEx just dropped off my first ever Panerai. A special thank you to Paul, Cru, Nicholas and Nick for the inspiration and the PM exchanges. This one's a beauty! The 690, one ive beem eyeballing since last July. Its lightweight compared to what I'm used to. The size isn't a problem and it wears super comfortable on my 7 flat shaped wrist!What I really love is the gorgeous blue dial! As many of you know I have a thing for blue dials and this one is truly spectacular! It changes in different light and gives off a beautiful cobalt sunburst blue color ... very hard to describe but it gorgeous, (now I know what you're talking about Paul). This is the first handwound watch I've ever owned and I was a bit reluctant at first but I think I'll delevop a bond with this one!I'd also like to say a special thank you to the forums most excellent DSW. It was a pleasure dealing with you sir! Thanks again to all you enablers.Cheers all!Sent

First PAM - 422 (MANY pics)! And I seem to have gone a little overboard...
... on the straps! There are just so many color combos and makers that I had to try a few of them right off the bat. This is going to be a long post with lots, lots of photos! First, a very nice, handmade, strap case by Rob Montana (The Strap Smith):In case anyone is curious, the straps are, from left to right (the last two are for other watches):1. OEM PAM rubber;2. Dangerous 9's 1926 ammo strap on a Roland Kobalia .950 silver buckle with X mas logo (this one will get a thread of it's own, what an amazing piece of history);3. PAM Assolutamente strap;4. Stone Creek's rolled edge black gator;5. Gunny's super smooth black calf;6. Stone Creek's black ammo (mounted on the watch);7. Ted Su's greyish/blue croco;8. Mario Paci's grey distressed;9. Kain Heritage's dusky brown with dlc buckleHere are some group shots of the watch and all the straps:Up close...Some gratuitous lume shots:And the obligatory wrist shots, along with some individual strap shots :And, finally, the gorgeous case back:I
