There Are Pandas, and Then There Are Pandas.
And this isn't either of them! The Pandas we're talking about here, are watches, not bears. And what got me thinking about them (again) was a link posted this morning by @cm.rook who pointed a few of us to the very attractive (and not terribly priced) Yema "Rallygraph" Panda which, in it's most traditional arrangement, looks like the one on the left, but can also be had in the version on the right: The model on the left is a true Panda, while the model on the right is called a reverse Panda. The reason for that distinction is clear--Panda bears, only come in the first arrangement. Now at this point, everyone should be thinking about the most well-know Panda, The Rolex Panda, which is actually a Daytona, and among Rolex Daytonas, the most famous of which is the Paul Newman Daytona, which was famous first, because it was Paul's, and second because it sold at auction for $17.8 million (US Dollars). The story of that auction is well-known so I'll only...

I got the 9-piece kit before and it's great but I do miss that toenail clipper. The cuticle tools are difficult to use correctly without causing bleeding and doing more harm than good, and there's of course always a risk of infections with wounds. I chose the 9-piece kit mainly due to my impulse control disorder that makes me compulsively remove my cuticles so I thought it'd be better if I learnt to do it the right way with proper tools, which is probably true but will take some practice.
I imagine most men will care more about toenails than cuticles?

Adds up to $54 if you want all four, and that's without a leather case since they won't fit inside your 6-piece case. Could add this:

And now it's $74 so you save $3 and arguably get a better case (room for more stuff like cuticle oils or other seki tools, but still slimmer than carrying both the 6-piece and 9-piece kits), but the case won't be custom-tailored for your tools and you don't get the extras/backups you would if you get the 9-piece kit. Nice having a dedicated cuticle kit, though; kinda wish I'd gotten the 6-piece set myself so I could do this, hah.
Silly there's no 10-piece kit. :-(
