I'm not doing too bad. The oil and gas industry has been good to me, but I wouldn't normally go out and get myself a multi-thousand dollar watch. The Daytona was a gift from my uncle, and my uncle's a huge watch enthusiast. He's got me hooked after seeing some of his collections. I decided I'll start small and get a pam 125. I love opening the caseback showcasing the 21 jewel movement. An engineering marvel really.
I bought the Panerai off a friend who owns a jewelry store in New York. The price he gave me was more than fair. I looked hard in Calgary, but I wasn't successful in finding pams anywhere. Lots of rolex dealers though.
