So a year ago after looking about a bit, i settled on a new Rolex Air King.
Didn't start liking Rolex but this was stainless steel so usable all the time, don't like Rolex cyclops - no date so ok and had a bit of colour in face (some say too much colour and fonts)
Anyway my 'best friend' glasgow dealer promised one in 3 months or sooner, didn't think that would be the case but I can wait, 2nd dealer says can't promise you but if you put your name down you are no 3, no strings attached, didnt as trusted other dealer.
1st dealer remembers my name every time I chase but I'll just take you details again anyway, hmmm
After 3 months go to other shop, saying what is the situation i'm serious, lost faith in other dealer, so yes we can put you down as a serious buyer, we had 1 watch in, 3 waiting now. Sounds good I'm happy but then I'm told you need to place a non refundable deposit so if I do get a watch anywhere else, you will keep my deposit even if there are others interested, Yes sir, WTF.
So 1 year later 'best friend' still hasn't contacted me, also thinking Air King may not be what I want now.
Rant over I'm not worthy of buying a watch from you
Anyway, can someone confirm the real life using size of Panerai PAM 25, think Mr Boag may have one or a similar model. Says 44mm case didn't think it would be as big as that, things like Omega Planet Ocean are too big and bulky for my wrist.
Used PAM25 with waffle face look nice in pics, not sure all variations of pam25 as well as similar 24/24? Etc but it might suit my needs, waterproof, bezel, can change look with straps, issue might be size and any hope of trialing one before I buy
Also I'm right handed but wear watch on right hand is that a problem with the winder thing ?
So over to the SE watch experts.
