Pam 242 gmt ?

OK
What are two crowns for?
Does the inner bezel rotate so in reality it could track 3 time zones
or is the second crown only for the GMT hand only?

Top crown ~ unscrews and rotates the hour ring.Clock or anti-clock wise.Destinctive click felt,when the ring rotates.

Bottom crown ~ winding,date and time setting.

242~ Excepional depth to the dial.Best use of a cyclops I have seen.Very accurate JLC movement and the nicest OEM Panerai Alligator strap ~ Mustard.Pity its not on a Tang and should have been at least 125/85 or 115/95 as standard length.

Sooooo cool!
Just don't know about the size
also the crowns look more delicate
than the Lum.
