william, all i can say is SWEEEEET!!!!!!! that is a awesome timepiece. i realy like the 2834-2 day/ date, great dial lay out. i like how its the reverse of most D.D. with the day at 6 and the date at 12, this would be a great watch to put some custom straps on. i hope that this watch meets all your expectations and more. congrats and wear it in good health. steve

Awesome watch! Love my Anonimo and its clean dial, this one has a nice clean dial too! Fit and finish is wonderful, remember these are the people who built Panerai until Richemont International SAgroup bought them in 1997 and moved the big P to Switzerland! Same case makers , same strap makers that go back 3 generations! Italians build things in Italy and 99% didnt make the move with the Big P and are proud of what they can do in Italy!Great score! Happy for you to start picking up quality pieces that will last a lifetime and dumping stuff that we all went through at one time or another, you're not alone and most of us bought into a bunch of bullshit! geek

THANKS Trevor, yea I dumped ALMOST ALL my Invicters &Renato's except a select few that r the older models that I truly do love..
I did my homework on this purchase & is the reason why I finally purchased it,the fact that the big P makers had a hand in these pieces is ultitmalely the main reason y I chose this brand, now It's time for the Panerai purchase but I allready have my eye on the Anonoimo chronoscopio, only time will tell(no pun intended) Anonimo D-Date 74725

Congratulations William! Love the day/Date complication against the "quiet" dial. I also like the positions of the 2 crowns on this model. The size is Right and it looks great!

This is definitely the kind of watch that becomes a TIMEPIECE WD ! Anonimo D-Date 803574 Anonimo D-Date 803574
Every time I see an Anomimo it's seems like the "A" is also for AWESOME, and
because it gets straight A's too ! Smile You can honestly tell that the design, as
well as all around fit and finish is TOP NOTCH with these watches. Even though
we are just seeing pictures, rather than holding it in our hands, it's EASY to see
that the quality is second to none with this Anonimo D-Date of yours. The first
thing that impresses with this watch imho, is that case-shape. The way the
shape of the bottom half looks combined with the circular top part is REALLY
OUTSTANDING. You can't help but notice how the case somehow manages
to look very very modern, but still have that nod to the past, with a REAL
classic feel to it. The case-shape alone, brings both a sporty modern theme,
together with a refined elegance. On top of that, the size really does look
perfect on it. No too BIG, but definitely LARGE enough ! ..Also think the finish
could not be ANY cooler. Just looks TREMENDOUS sir !!! cheers Then when you
look at the dial you find much of the same qualities that make the case SO
intriguing. Not only is the dial VERY smooth, and classic looking, but it also
has an EXCITING side as well. The way the numbers look, as well as how
they go sideways like that, is EXCELLENT in my humble opinion WD ! Very Happy It
adds a nice little subtle twist if you ask me. Even the various markers, along
with smaller numbers further in on the dial are a NEAT touch. Speaking of
neat touches ! How about the day, and date complication ?! ..Now that's
going to make ANYONE take a second, third, and fourth look right there !!!
..That's one of those things that you probably never will get tired of staring
at with this watch. Add in those GREAT looking hands to watch glide across
this dial, and you have a REAL masterpiece. ..Yet another interesting feature
about this watch, is how it has the dual crowns. The look, along with position
of them is extremely eye-catching imho. It genuinely adds that little extra
personality to the watch, and when you take a peek at the watch from the
side, you can enjoy them even more. Plus you can take in a little more of
the top notch case, along with shape, and all around fit, and finish this
Anonimo has to offer ! Anonimo D-Date 46145 ..From those TERRIFIC looking lugs there, to
the world class movement inside this one. This TIMEPIECE is one to ENJOY,
and be very very proud to have. Want to also say that this strap looks like
it has all of the quality, and looks to match your Anonimo, but that NEW one
you will be getting is FANTASTIC also !!! ..Congratulations on owning this WD !
..Keep ENJOYING sir !

AWESOME Anonimo, pictures, even box ! Smile
