I saw the camera that you brought, and I'm amazed at the shots it produced! I was reduced to using my iPhone cam because of the poor lighting smiling smiley
Was great to finally meet you Kok Sian :-)

Could not find my old Nikon SLR's battery charger. So ended up with my old compact camera. Luckily pic still ok. Could have been better. Time to upgrade to a newer compact cam...smiling smiley
Love your PAM360 with the red croco. So iconic to you...smiling smiley

Kudos to Antonius and his team for the well organized event.

I like the settings and venue and it was wonderful to have all these new pieces showcased for the 1st time here.

Great meeting you and all other Paneristis. A memorable evening indeed.

Cheers,

Such gathering is always a time for us to look at each other's strap/watch combo.
This explains why most Panerai collectors have many straps.smiling smiley

Ciao,

ciao Chua,
indeed you're right, even if i own only one Panerai, i already have 3 straps for it grinning smiley
What really suprises me always when looking at Panerai gathering is the spirit of fellowship, no envy but only pleasure to share...
It's beautiful !
