I see a lot of personal posts so thought I would combine some Pam content with some impressions of my recent family holiday to the NE of Spain.
It is truly a beautiful country with a lot of history.

So this time some shots of Pams, my wife Laura, my oldest son Ram, youngest Ruben and some impressions of the country.
Hope you like the shots.

And to keep you eager along the way: there is a Pam 315 tourbillon encounter in it!!
so here it goes:

Ruben:


Holiday emergency kit:


Yes I am a strap "sissy"..... Didn't want to make the strap wet so that is what the box is for....


What makes life worth living:


Medieval city of Pals:


Evening sky:


Dali museum in Figueres:


This guy is guarding the entrance......Sorry.... no watch ;-(






Cap de Creus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cap_de_Creus










Bronzo in dutch watch magazine......


In the dutch version of 00/24 Horloge saw this IWC. Made me greedy........ again.......


There were forest fires in the north od spain. Made the sky very very dark. Almost surreal... But It gave me the opportunity to make a wrist shot directly in the sun!!!!


Trip to Girona and as a surprise....... Yes!


372 on stock:


I could resist to go in directly first some more Girona impressions:


Medieval Call




Cava time. Made agreat combination with Laura's watch. Anybody?





Not smart but after some cava back in the AD Pere Quera


They have a special Panerai area in the shop and a great collection:


Ram is getting interested....... Oh No......




He is 6 , almost 7 now..... Maybe I should guard him for The P virus but he what the hell..... It's nice to have mutual hobbies (toch Pa? some Dutch words for a lurker....)




This would look nice in my room:


And this would look even better


Some of the watches:




Left the store with (only) a 2012 catalog.... Had to be strong This guy is hoping on a 449


You have to start young


Ruben training his wristshot pose:


crowdy Barcelona Metro:


Third time I see it grow......


In the centre of Barcelona there is a Pam AD Rabat and they had some great pieces......
305!




I saw this inside the store and yes I could touch and try it PAM 315!!






An engineering Masterpiece: Pam 315 with Tourbillon


Further along the same street they have a second Rabat store: Again the 3015 and an IWC miranmar.


And strawling further on this street we came along this: Another one of my passions


Some more Barcelona impressions:












Time for a strap change. Off came the Black Widow and the X-1 is back on:


Medieval city of Begur:






Great restaurant with an amazing in- and exterior in Begur. Time for a wristshot:




Love of my life:


Happy me ..... The cava made me smile some more


LaFranc






If you made it this far: Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed it
P-Day here I come!!!!

Fantastic trip. One of my favorite areas of Spain.
Wonderful pics my friend, and I see you had good time with your family.

You visited two of the best Panerai AD in SPain. Rabat is where I buy my watches. If I had know in advance, I could have made a call!...

Glad you had great time in my country mate!

WONDERFUL family!!!

Be well!

Would be great to meet you in person. I saw you reaction only when I came home on the Girona post on FB.... ;-( I thought a holiday "without" Internet would be also great for a few weeks.
Where do you live Nacho so that next time?!

P.S both the AD's were a pleasure to visit. VERY friendly people who were also very enthousiast Panerai lovers!

See you in London?

Greetings,

Mark Sanders

something to catch up about at P-Day!!

That's a coincidence!

In Begur you have some great restaurants. Merci is the one in the pics.

We will discuss how your holiday was when we meet in London
