Hi all,

 

First of all I'd like to apologize for my English, it is not my native language.

I have just recently stumbled upon these magnificent forums and have been reading non-stop since.

 

I am a man in my early twenties that lives in the tiny country that is Belgium. My interest for watches was spiked by trying on a cheap 3 euro watch and wearing it for a couple of days.

 

When it comes to buying things in general, I am a perpetual doubter.

 

Seeing as I am a vegetarian, I'd rather not wear a leather strap. My preferences for straps would be 1) PU leather, 2) Rubber and 3) Steel (am I missing anything?).

Since I have not decided on a replica yet, I thought I would share some of the watches I like and maybe some of you might chime in and give me some suggestions (or not):

 

 

PAM 438 TUTTONERO

PAM 386

Thank you for reading. Please do drop your suggestions and comments in here!

The Panerai 'Tuttonero' Is kind of an obsession of mine. There is a rep for it, but the rep doesn't come on a black ceramic bracelet like the gen, and until it does, I'm begrudgingly holding my money.

The AP 15400? Excellent choice. I'm in the middle of ordering one right now, as a matter of fact. Waiting on WU instructions... :D

Welcome to the forum!

Read. Educate yourself about reps and the ordering process. Then, pull the trigger on your first rep :)

Enjoy!

Thanks. I like a lot of watches, just struggling with finding a watch with a strap on it that I like as default right now.

Excellent choice, I would just ad AP ROO Diver to the list and maybe Patek Nautilus Jumbo SS with blue dial, but since you are in early 20s, maybe not. Also PAM339 Marina Militare is amazing watch.

Welcome...I lived in Belgium for 5 years and loved it. You've made some nice choices and most reps have a rubber or SS alternate strap or brand. I too am a vegetarian but I'm not so sure if the rep leather is real leather.

Those are all very nice watches. I definitely agree on your comment about the Patek.

Thanks, I'm not too fond of the rubber Panerai strap.

Something like this looks pretty sweet:
