Empty: The REDs had to be recalibrated to run slow so the other could keep up.

Another great watchmaker, not yet mentioned, whom has done some great pieces for Ferrari is Panerai. www.panerai.com

I have yet to purchase the 430 I want so bad, but I splurged on my birthday this year with the Panerai Ferrari watch. Great piece in my small collection.

What do those puppies sell for.?...new & used

Limited edition to I think 3000 units. $4K list. I found mine last year. You can find them on the secondary market but they aren't making them anymore..haven't been for about a year. I also have the watch that was given out to the owners in Germany but don't have a picture of it handy..I'll try to get one.

And I really like the tag as well...actually wearing it today.

HHGT was most kind to track one of these down in S. CA. for me last year. My wife doesn't allow me to wear it much since it hardly matches anything but I do get to it wear to the Rallys at least.

It matches the forum, so you should wear it every time you're on the forum.

'Cause a quick call to the manufacturer confirmed the mechanisms in the BLUE ones had to be slowed down via heavier sprockets/gears to keep their wearers from showing up for appointments a day early...the red ones OTOH needed more powerful mainsprings and lighter sprockets just to stay within minimum accuracy specs.

It's all in the report I'm forwarding to you, Special Agent Gibbs.

Ah ha..just as suspected...So...in other words you would never commit to actually driving a RED FGT either. At least your non discriminatory.

So sad. That RED FGT was you pockets all the way. What a better way to actually finally experience what an FGT is like to drive beyond the confines of your own driveway then in a RED one.

:biggrin
