A watch i never thought i would own

[willy]

This is about the last watch,i ever imagined would be on my wrist.I have owned 2 Panerai watches in the past,both 44mm.I love the design of them,but found them uncomfortable to wear.I like watches that are as true to their history as possible,and i think many Panerai models are just to modern looking for my taste.But the Pam 372 changed everything for me.The only thing that worried me was the size of it 47mm !
                                                      However looks can be decieving.So when Thomas Chrono got one in stock,i decided to give it a try.It is a big  watch but not a bulky watch like the Rolex Deep Sea.And i have to agree with the many reviews written about it,it fits like a glove.It is in fact one of the most comfortable watches i have ever worn.The caliber inside is not a work of art,but it gives a 72 hour power reserve that ideal for a hand wound watch.I got this watch just for the design,and i think it is a very beautifull watch indeed.And it tells me why Panerai have so many dedicated followers in the watch world.History just drips out of this watch,the size and the case form create a perfect picture in my mind of what made Panerai a well known brand.
                                 My Rolex Milgaus GV had to go,to get this watch.I liked the Milgaus a lot but i will never get used to Rolex polishing the middle links on their bracelets.I feel a bit amused with myself,because if anyone had told me that i would consider a 47mm Panerai to be  beautifull.I would have said they were insane.How wrong can you get
