Yeah 44mm
It looks a bit big when just wearing a polo shirt. Suits a double cuffed shirt really well.
It's made me seriously consider a proper Panerai. I'm thinking about a PAM 312 or 328 now!

Probably either fake or just crap

That MM looks  not quite got the visual balance of an 088 but for $80 who cares
There are about a dozen 312's on Blowers at the mo

I hate that site, makes me want what I can't afford!
Actually found something a bit cheaper that I like the look of. It has no 'wow factor' though. Longines Master Collection

One of the ceramic Panerai, 441/384/335, would be perfect That or a Hublot All Black, although one of them would get me a couple Panerai's

The longines is lovely. A director at our work has that exact watch - very understated, almost too understated IMO? Paid circa £1250 second hand iirc

They are £1850 brand new I think.
I have a new itch to scratch. I think I need a Sub in my life. I have found a seriously mint birthyear one today. Tried it on today but I think it might just be too similar to the PO
It's the last of the plexiglass fronted ones, including ALL papers and add ons. Something that will go up in value based on rarity.
Maybe just too similar to the PO that they might dilute the 'specialness' of each other?

I personally do not like Rolex
Each to there own but to me they look cheap - compare the PO to that Rolex
And yes I understand why they cost so much as I am into watches but rolex just do not do it for me

They're both nice watches in their own right, and I don't really think they would distract from each other.
Unless you wear them both at once, then you are a twat 
PS: Zenith El primero Rainbow flyback instead of the Rolex

That is the best watch ever created.
I nearly put a high school teacher into a loony bin with one of those watches
