Panerai Event at the Boutique in Beverly Hills California. " The Value of Time"

I apologize for the gigantic pics.


Got to the event a little early

The staff is still getting ready when we got there

So a bunch of us were just chillin outside the boutique

I'm the one on the right:biggrin: the other dude is NAD

Here are some watches on the front window

We get inside finally....

and there it is the very popular 339

I finally get my hands on it and it is just a stunner, the finish and color were just beautiful and that dial just shouts Panerai

I tried it on and it actually looks good on my wrist....

Wow, now that is brown....

Even the strap on the 339 is very comfortable on the wrist, very light weight, here are the stats of the 339:

Here's another stunning watch that made an appearance, the PAM 349, only 12 made, owned by one of the attendees of the event,

beautiful California Dial with a Minerva-based OP XXVII movement.

It was a very successful event there at least 50 people in that venue and we stayed and talked watches up until closing time.

was Wearing my PAM 61 that night...

Also got a chance to try on a hublot-king-power-alinghi and this is one beautiful beast at 48mm, its an awesome piece

with a very comfy articulated rubber bracelet

This Patek is a very classic piece.

Thanks for looking....
