Once upon a time.....
...there was an "aborted" collection of lefties. At the beginning of my Paneritis, I had the idea of collecting all the lefties available, at the time. In a very short time I bought the ones in the picture. Little did I know, that my budding "collection" was going to crash and burn!! To my horror, I discovered the exsistence of PAM239 and PAM358. The 2 Submesibles produced for Chronopassion, put a nail the size of Alaska, in the coffin of my defunct collection, since as everyone knows in this forum, Submersibles and I, just don't mix :-( Thru the course of time, I sold some of the pieces (who likes to keep an aborted collection anyway?) and I'm left with just 5 of them. Cheers

I remember the first chronopassion left hand sub.

Of the two black ones...
one in PVD (24B) and the one in DLC (24K) I kept the DLC one. The 24B was a bit too...lived in..for my taste. Also, being a Tdialled model, had more "market appeal" than the K model
Of course I had a 22.....
it's the second watch from the left. I also had a 22B Luminova. The 22B serial was produced with the T-dial in the first part of the production and with the L-dial in the latter part, since T dials were going out of production. In my picture, the 22L is t...
