QUOTE(Hearts @ Oct 16 2011, 02:50 PM) Was wondering, anyone got any experience on cleaning Panerai rubber straps? Would love to learn how to clean it, i went to a watch shop and they asked me to use my toothbrush and soap =__= Toothbrush and soap sounds pretty good. I use the same combo to clean my watch bracelets and sinn rubber strap. |

Why no love for Zenith?
 Got this about 2 years back from Sincere Watch Pavilion KL before Zenith changed CEOs. Really loved the Port-Royales and Defy Extremes but looks like they were a bit too bold for the audience. Oh well, now I can say my model is already discontinued. Also, just saying... the new Zenith models now look so ahpek I wanna cry. /end rant |

I agree on the lack of love for Zenith but it is my favourite brand!!  |

Was also in my consideration but I already had a workhorse Tag Carrera Chrono already so decided on the square-shaped Port instead . Still waiting for one with a good price.

The Captain Winsor and Chrono are quite classy too. |
