First Panerai, booyah!

Well after a very long time of looking and lurking, I finally got my first PAM! Here's a few pics, and yes, I know how awesome my floral print sheets are :)

Thanks everyone! I was debating back and forth between the 25 or the 24, but I got such a good deal on this 25 I couldn't pass it up. I couldn't be happier. I love the titanium and the dial. Now time to get some straps!

Was considering getting the 24, and was recommended instead to get the 25 at the boutique.
I think the 25 looks much better on the wrist than the 24, great call! :)

Congrats! I love subs and debated between a 24 and zero before ultimately deciding I should start first with base, then get the sub later. Nice pickup.

That's one big chunk of Ti alloy there, with the textured dial.
Ticks all the boxes of the submersibles for me.
Congratulations.

cheers
