New Parnis Flightdeck 50mm in the mail today....

Recommended Posts

Balad1

My 50mm Parnis (Black PVD with green dial) arrived today and I must say it's one BIG son of a bitch. I haven't made up my mind if I'll be able to wear it or not; I'm not sure I have the balls, lol.

 

I'll try to post photos within a few days; I work this weekend.

 

This is a stock photo:

PS: Yes PGL it looks like a cast iron frying pan on my wrist, ha.

Since I promised Kenny I would post pictures of my PARNIS whenver I got it, I fulfill my promise now...

 

I changed the straps and used a very "discrete" color LOL

I tell you, it really stands out. Everybody at work complimented on it today. This watch is clearly not for everybody (because of its size and strap color), but I guess I pulled it off. LOL.

 

Probably most of you would not like it but I like really "loud" watches. I have several yellow, orange and red watches.

Although not to my taste, the strap certainly matches the watch very well :).

Yeah, it is almost the same tone of green than the numerals. It is more like a summer watch to me. I would wear it more during the same whenever I go to the beach or the pool...

 

I have to learn how to take decent pictures so I can post a few more of my "discrete" watches... :)

Sorry, but it'll be a cold day in hell before I strap anything with the word 'Parnis' on the dial to my wrist.... :D

PGL don' worry, everything will be fine... No one, I SAID no one, ever said Penis or something different, because the Parnis is pronounced like Paris.. you can say that this watch is not replica but homage, and some people will not feel some offended that you wear replica, when you have homage watch like invicta etc. And even if somebody ask what is that brand, just say it is U-boat homage, they don't have even clue... Most of here think that Parnis = Penis, don't know why, but maybe they need to say it :lol:

I think it looks pretty cool! Not the colour and old fart like me would wear but still....cool!

 

And if you ever should get lost wearing that watch .... just hold your arm up and you will be very easy to spot! :rolleyes: :(

I think it looks really cool. And I'm not a big fan of rubber/silicone straps. But that fits really well. Should be an awesome summer wear. I may have to get me one of those for a knock around.

Thanks Eric! The band is great for the price. I am sure if you decide to "make" one of these you won't regret it. :rofl:

I bought the chrono AND the non-chrono over a year ago, love them, but sold the chrono, now I wish I hadn't - but the fact is I never wore it.

 

Love the leather straps - the lime green.... more courageous than me....
