A gathering....courtesy of OP and a PamPurist
By: Hororgasm : July 20th, 2011-12:46
There are watch collectors gatherings, and there are panarei owners gatherings. you might ask, what is the difference? I cant put my fingers on why, perhaps its more boisterous, more casual, less stuffy, more self deprecating.....the list goes on, I just ...
I can vouch that
By: Hororgasm : July 20th, 2011-12:56
the owner of the 341 wears it not only in public, but also at times on the ankles of his dinner dates - best, Horo
Wow,

that's a table shot, I don't know how many oof you were around but very nice, the 2 vintage are unbelievable, especially the one with the lighter dial, amazing unique patina, pure desert cream, yummy!!! thanks for sharing, Matt
There were about 20 people.
By: Hororgasm : July 20th, 2011-14:39
Took about half the pub. There were a few more not captured. Best, Horo
Fantastic time.

Started around 7pm till 1am. And the range from vintage till date. Several members of this august forum may emerge and identify themselves. Best, Horo

So exclaimed the unknown 21st century Chinese philosopher once. Or was it "Money is my God, Bank is my Church" I get confused....too many cults, too little time Best, Horo
Pannies galore!

quite a gathering! J
Yes it is....
By: Hororgasm : July 21st, 2011-04:26
And more to come. Planning for one that will feature 50-100 pams, maybe even more, if everyone comes doublewristed. Best, Horo
There is no such thing as "top notch pams" mate
By: Hororgasm : July 21st, 2011-04:43
They are PAMs that's it. But George Orwell writing in Animal Farm once did opined that all animals are equal, though some are more equal then others. I guess that can be said for watches too. But it's not an opinion that I subscribe to, though in reality ...
reminds me of a quote from my university days....
By: playtime : July 22nd, 2011-15:42
""Every actual democracy rests on the principle that not only are equals equal but unequals will not be treated equally." Not that I subscribe to it, though....
Awesome PAMs
By: Davo : July 20th, 2011-23:36
Love what I see. Sweet old school PAMs. Thanks for sharing, Horo.
Glad you like it mate.
By: Hororgasm : July 21st, 2011-01:30
I have been swinging back to more pams again, but knowing myself, will prob be back to gentlemen sized watches or indies again. Best, Horo
Yes, will organize something low-key?
By: Hororgasm : July 21st, 2011-00:59
Will revert with the planning soon. And the pleasure was all mine to meet all the serious Pam lovers. Best, Horo
Damn...

It's not IF but WHEN PAM do a remake
By: Hororgasm : July 21st, 2011-14:42
What have they not done or remake? A question of time. I am no PAM expert, but I am a betting man. I am also not certain of the longevity in this trend for watch brands to raid their history and archives to create modern remakes or interpretations. Any op...
agree +1
By: swjoseph : July 22nd, 2011-02:44
ohh..btw...did you guys pick the pieces instead of picking the people, it's just an awesome variety of Pannie for a GTG of this size. it covers the whole history of Panerai with namely all kinds of movements and cases. can any one name anything that is si...

As far as material science goes....
By: Hororgasm : July 24th, 2011-11:19
Creating a material for the sake of creating a material is just pure BS. Should the new material provide solid improvements, higher vickers etc etc, I can appreciate, even if I do not subscribe to the view, or for that matter, I might. But is the new mate...
i Totally Agree
By: Tony A.H : July 25th, 2011-06:56
if it's Not a Better Material ? why Bother and Buy it. i'm too Poor to Risk my Money in something that hasn't stood the Test of Time. "yet" :0))
Me same boat as you
By: Hororgasm : July 26th, 2011-12:06
New tangled materials have to be "better" then the usual SS, YG, RG or Plat etc.... Someone told me recently there was a case of a IWC top gun ceramic case breaking into halves after a nasty contact with a piece of furniture...speechless Best, Horo
howdy...its a good GTG,
By: Hororgasm : July 23rd, 2011-08:16
