Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get some advise. I'm seriously considering trading or selling either my Yellow dial Emergency or my Navitimer towards a Pam 24.
In your opinion, which one should I keep? Which one is more of a 'keeper'
I find myself hardly wearing either watch. Look forward to the opinions of the members. I want to choose 'wisely' and don't want to regret getting rid of either watch.

Thanks,

The Navitimer is an icon. Unless you are a pilot, sailor or avid outdoorsman I do not see the need for an Emergency.

Now having said that I would not trade either one for a Panerai

Thanks for the advice Brian. I definitely need to give it some thought. I just don't find myself wearing them very often and the PANERAI appeals to me.

Thanks again,

My initial reaction is to let go of the emergency since I think the Nav is simply gorgeous and I will never let mine go. But, if you do not wear either there is no shame in letting them both go.

I would let go of the Emergency for the PAM 024 in a heartbeat.

Hi SixPak ,
I think you definitely helped me decide. I picked a new green canvass strap for my 111 at NYC PANERAI today. I took a look at the Pam 025 after giving it a lot of thought I'm gonna let go of the Emergency and get the 024. Plus I figure it'd be great cause I can also use the straps I already own on both watches. I'll keep the Navitimer as others have said, it's more of a 'keeper' Thanks again!

Yeah it's hard to choose btw the 024 and 025 but your did great keeping the Navi. The green canvas strap is very nice. Congrats!

Regards,
P

Thanks SixPak. I'll post when I get the 'Pannie'.

99.999999% of the people who own an emergency don't really have the need for it. Smart decision
