Incoming Base..

Post by jimyritz » Tue Mar 12, 2013 3:16 pm

Ever since I sold my 112 I've been thinking about Panerai's--isn't that the way it goes?

Went back and forth. Subs, bases, 44's, 42's, etc...Got a lot a great comments and thoughts from Rick, Adam, Matt Wu, Shap, Todd, Barry, Mattcantwin, Rahul, Paul, Jay, and Rocketmaster Mike, etc... Finally decided to look for a Luminor Base Zero...Painted dial, closed case back, etc...Had a few e-mail conversations with Zack and next thing you know we have a BNIB Base.. Big thanks to DWC and Zack for helping me out :thumbsup:

Here you go..Thanks for looking...

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said
