but I flipped my 000. I liked the watch very much but still could not shake the thought of owning a 176. The 176 is the one that I first saw a few years ago at my Pam AD and loved it, but ended up buying another Rolex.

When I decided that it was time to own a pam, I went back to that same AD and put on the 176 again, I still loved it. They did not have a 000 or a 112/111 to try on but from the pics., they looked pretty nice. So then I came across a a 000 at a very nice price, so I went for it. It was a great watch, but I still found myself longing for the 176. After a couple of days thinking it over, the decision was easy, I had to get my first love, the 176.

I just got a email from the guy who bought my 000, and he could not be happier. I have a feeling come Tuesday, when I have the 176 on my wrist, I will be a very happy man also.

Trevor, could tell from your previous posts you had your heart set on the 176. At the end of the day you know which model smiles at you the most. Glad you stuck with another PAM. Can't wait to see the pics!

Always go with your first instinct!

Nica64 · 13 June 2009, 08:42 AM

If the 176 is the one that make you happy that's the way you need to go, is about what you want and like.

Congratulations

as Joe says still is a Panerai.

...ok, you're crazy!

Well you said to call you crazy.

I agree with the others, go with what make you happy, we all end up flipping a few at some point. Just yesterday I sold the Speedmaster I bought only a month ago. The 312 had something to do with that!

I have a feeling that this won't be my last pam also, but I won't flip the 176 for it.
