dave47 6,551 Posted May 16, 2020 Hi, Gang! I thought I'd show off this, uh, "unusual" "Big Monster' watch I picked up a while ago. It's supposed to be a watch made in Norway and allegedly given to Norwegian medal winners at the LONDON Olympics. it's quartz powered, measures 43mm x 13mm, and has a pretty decent lume. Also has a screw down crown but am not certain of its WR rating. I paid only $60 on the Bay, so i'm not expecting too much. Case appears to be solid, though, but its rubber strap is kinda stiff. Still, it' not a bad piece for 'hacking' around. dave: Just now, dave47 said: Hi, Gang! I thought I'd show off this, uh, "unusual" "Big Monster' watch I picked up a while ago.

That's a cheapo I got on eBay (only the clasp says Panerai) and a lousy pic of it to boot. I like it plenty for sure, here's a better but still not great pic: 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm after a gold vintage Daytona - gimme a shout when you get the daily wearer sorted. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
