There's a gold one for sale on eBay right now
Game over! :-) And thanks for the interesting description of a watch I'd never seen (but gladly I understand I'm still in time to apply for one of the other ten pieces ;-)) [nt]

Wow NickO!! That´s an awesome watch with an amazing history behind. You had good reasons to buy it...
... very similar good reasons as in my case when I bought my Big Egiziano: "just because we like it so much" and even if we wear them little ... and in my case only within the walls of my home.
My Big Panerai gives me much pleasure to own it, when I view it on my desk as a clock or when I wear far from curious lookers who will make some funny questions about it and why I bought it. It is the crown of my Panerai collection and a piece of history of diving watches and the Italian brand. I´m very proud of it.
I think we share similar feelings about these Whale watches and I wish you find similar pleasure as me owning your Idalgo.
Hagwe and stay safe my friend! Abel

I heard the Elves of Rivendell took a job at the Hodinkee shop
In all seriousness, that's the best writeup I've read easily all year!👏👊
Holy Balaena, Batman! How I wish I had a Face2Face or at least a Millenary to set alongside! Gosh, I've never…. But I'm such a relative newcomer here...
As has been seen, Mike and Emil were all over this! And I'm honored to be in your company. Wonderfully entertaining writer you are, as well. Many thanks! FH
Thanks for all the kind words, guys! The HD3 says she appreciates them a lot! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 [nt]

It's different so maybe not forgotten easily. As then, the wallet will not be emptied. Cheers S [nt]

This is what a real "chunk" of metal looks like. Man-o-man. Good play! Truly a whale! [nt]

Only too big if you feel it's too big. A stealthy submission. Gliding under the radar as the whales glide under the sea. A clever metaphor! FH [nt]

I wonder how heavy can be my Rolex Milgauss 116400 and Air King 116 900. But I might not be too far. [nt]

That dial design reminds me of the Dali Lama birthday joke: (as he opens his present) "Oh, boy! My favorite! Nothing!" I think its truly stunning, and made the
more so by the wide bezel which broadens it substantially. I didn't know this before. Thanks for enlightening me! FH
De Beautiful De Bethune
Measuring a svelte 44mm and weighing in at a scant 106 grams. Not so big, but a whale of a presence. Ya?
Awesome one!
Those lugs look beautiful, as is the dial and hands. They work very well together from a design language perspective
Yes, surely, "presence-plus!" A fine submission. Many thanks for playing! FH [nt]
