Anyone keen on watches?

Very nice!

Although why they didn’t show it was made by Panerai on the watch face I don’t know.

Almost identical.

I’m wearing this chrono today (made by Panerai)

That’s really nice Roy. Was just checking to see how much one would be, clucking bell, I had no idea....think I’ll go lie down for a bit.

Mine's about 13 years old, I got it second hand a couple of years back for £2.2k with box & papers, overdue for a service. The Luminor Marina 1950 was purchased new in Aruba last year.

Sounds like you done alright there. Do the things typically appreciate in value over time or drop? Are they an investment as such?

Not so much with Panerais, I buy them because I like the marque. There are some sought over Rolex models that sell for more than retail; the green 'Submariner' is a case in point. If you can find one retail they're around £7k but good second hand ones sell for more than £10k!

I don't know what it is about that Panerai, but bloody hell I want one!

Get yourself to the Caribbean! I almost saved the value of my holiday when I bought this one.

But for the poor attitude of the sales person I would have bought a two tone stainless steel/gold submariner before xmas, not as rare as the green one but still worth snapping up if you see one. First thing she said to me when I asked about it was 'We don't do credit on Rolex's'...
