Next PAM>>>>Which Rad or Diver??

Looking at my next PAM (I keep saying I'm done with watches and my last is my last but that never sticks) and I can"t decide between the 292 or the 24.
Two different styles for sure. Right now I have a 113 and 005.

Wrist shots of the 292 and 24 would be appreciated along with your thoughts.

Personally .... 243 or 305 or 193 (Large wrist )

24 or 25 at pricepoint is Although not the biggest Ti fan,the honeycomb dial and Ti looks great on the 25.

292 >>>> The J version Striking watch !! When I bought mine,I had it between some very nice PAMs on the table and it really stood out from the rest.

Yeah,...the 243 is a sweet reference. I've thought hard about it, but my 24 is so stupid accurate I don't want to rock the boat.

RAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the subs alright, but the Radiomirs are so sweetly historically correct.

Also, the Rad has the ability to dress up on a nice gator and go with a suit, or go to war with a vintage ammo. Very versitile.

243 all day long for me. It's a beast, but wears well. I find it quite unique compared to lots of other PAMs, mainly due to the thick bezel, creating what some have described as a "porthole" dial effect.
