ever randomly see or meet a person wearing a PAM?

i have only seen one PAM wearer in my life, maybe its because i live in a place where PAMs are not that popular?

baldyspoon · 28 November 2011, 08:34 AM

I have seen a few around london when been out with the girlfriend, and went to harrods for my birthday on 9th November and saw a couple of people wearing them there.

cparks555 · 28 November 2011, 09:04 AM

I've yet to see one where I live, and hope to have one myself very soon!

brkanand · 28 November 2011, 09:07 AM

Yes. Only one guy here where I live. This guy had a Pepsi sold it bought a PAM and is now shifted his base to NY!

B. Doggy · 28 November 2011, 10:33 AM

I actually haven't. Live in a lesser populated area of the world. It doesn't surprise me that you haven't though. Can't imagine large populations of 'Risti's in Antarctica...

liptonnr · 28 November 2011, 11:04 AM

Yes! I have only ever seen one in my area! I know that people would have no idea what kind of watch it is!

xspect · 28 November 2011, 11:20 AM

There are a few guys who say they own one but I'm yet to see one.

rulessapt · 28 November 2011, 11:21 AM

Still waiting to see one, other than mine, on the island where I live.

PierreB · 28 November 2011, 11:32 AM

Yes, yesterday I was in a boutique in NYC and there was at least 5 guys wearing Panerai around me. What a coincidence!

Ok, maybe the fact that it was the Panerai boutique may explain the coincidence

johnny80s · 28 November 2011, 11:37 AM

A jeweler that I know wears one and he doesnt even carry the brand in his store.

andrew79 · 28 November 2011, 12:05 PM

I see lots of people wearing pams nowadays.

bcacncnc · 28 November 2011, 12:17 PM

Its very common to bump into someone on the street wearing PAMs in HK.

rr-nyc · 28 November 2011, 12:55 PM

On average, I see about 10-12 PAMs a day. There was a time when it was worth starting a conversation about them but now they're so common that a lot of people wearing them have no idea what they are

joleel7 · 28 November 2011, 01:13 PM

Panerai is very popular in Asia also PAM has limited production and is hard to get for certain models.

mlotus95 · 28 November 2011, 01:23 PM

only on tv

rebel_1 · 28 November 2011, 01:51 PM

Other than mine, I have only seen ONE before that. That maybe what drew me into the Paneristi mindset. I'm also a Breitling fan and I've only seen a handful of them. I have, however, seen countless Rolex Submariniers.

So do I! He passed at my cash where I work and I saw it, couldn't help but compliment him on it and he seemed rather pleased about it. He told me it was his grail and his girlfriend bought it for him...I need to find that girl and marry her!

I went into a shop selling Seikos and Grand Seikos. The sales comments on my 233 and tells me he also wears a PAM 111.

roach7 · 28 November 2011, 05:40 PM
