Pequignet Moorea Triomphe Watches
Pequi-what? PequiGNET! You likely haven't heard of this brand as they haven't even looked in the direction of the US yet (as far as I know), but this France-based watch maker is one you should know about.

Personally, I am a huge fan of Ed Norton (and I'll watch basically anything he is in), but you have to consider his image based on the most popular movies he has been in.So when I hear of Ed Norton, I think of some specific movies he has been in.

My First PAM Is....
The 277. . I am a novice when it comes to Panerai's but I just fell in love with the blue dial with the Rose Gold case. Love the GMT, power reserve & chrono complications. I wanted to seek your advise as to the pros & cons of the 277. Will it hold it's value, paid 25K. Is it the right PAM to own with a full inhouse movement and sandwich case. Please let me know your thoughts and would love to hear from past & present owners of the piece.
