...I parked my car near a column and in trying to squeeze thru the space, I grated the plexiglass (a-la-parmesan-cheese) against the column. First thought: oops. Second thought: great, now I don't have to freak out every time I use it anymore Lolllllll ...

spare plexi in the huge box I haven't used it, though. Today it still has the original one on it and I've never grated it again.

Even toothpaste is ok...

Yes it is!

What watch were you wearing?

I've never been bothered about it...

 
 By: sergio : March 30th, 2023-13:08
..so much so that I've never touched it. It was just a "liberating" feeling After a triple by-pass (a while back) not even the calcium worries me Lollll

I've learned the lesson, Doc...

This piece haunts me...

It is my favorite Panerai, this and the 372, 332...that would be an ideal collection for me, but, start with the 249...just so simple and beautiful.
