buying a new PAM this weekend
 
was seriously looking at the submersible...any other thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated...dying to get a PAM and start buying straps!

I like 'em!

Megalobyte 28 January 2011 01:43 PM

I love my 24! :thumbsup: And strap accumulation :) Like Nike, just do it.

Lovely pics....

But I've never been drawn to the subs enough...

I love the 183 (biased)..but if another PAM I'd go for the 233 or 312 :)

penangite 28 January 2011 07:20 PM

I'm biased too ... why not Pam312, shown here w/new yellow strap

So many great models. I think the 233 is a bit underrated, and a relative bargain on the used market these days. I love my 312. If you don't mind a little extra thickness over the 24/25, get a 243. Or just save your money for a few months, and get a 372 when it comes out--possibly the best watch Panerai has ever made IMO.

If you want a sub now get the 24 or 305 :thumbsup: The 243J is a nice proposition as well :agree: I'm looking to add a submersible to my collection and I think the 382 will do it for me :clap:

Well, did you buy it? You are keeping us in suspense!

Athas 15 February 2011 10:47 PM

My AD said the 305 has been very popular. A blue face version with gmt has also now been released

nauticajoe 15 February 2011 11:11 PM

With a cyclops - 243; without a cyclops - 305 :thumbsup:

Good Luck!

Carlo Miguel 16 February 2011 11:34 PM

My Double Sub!!!:cheers:

That would be the 371. I've already spoken to my AD.:thumbsup:

Waiting for Speed(Bill) to post his PAM shots... god i want one sooo bad!:cheers:

chazha 17 February 2011 04:03 AM

305 is hooot!!! otherwise see if you can get the new bronze sub PAM 382. its rly special as well.

FLB03TT 17 February 2011 05:56 AM

Love my 25. Very distinctive look and the color tone and patina of the Titanium case can't be beat!

psv 17 February 2011 05:58 AM

Don't get one that is rated at 1,000 m or above - they cannot be properly serviced in the US and have to go back to Switzerland. Think 4+ months for a pressure test...

Not a fan of the cyclops either.

Gregcar 17 February 2011 01:34 PM

Bought The 25
 
Should have by Monday then time to buy straps

I love subs with patina. I heard they're making a bronze sub, but it's going to be huge.
