My first PAM: gravitating towards a Submersible

[BogdanS]

Hello, WIS crowd!

Not yet a Paneristi myself but I get the feeling that this is about to change soon. Your guidance so far was vital and needed once more.

I’ve been thinking for a while what is better to start with, circled around most of the “my first Panerai” threads, boucing from PAM00111 to PAM00359 to PAM00312 to PAM00352 to PAM00321 to PAM00323 to PAM00510 to PAM01314 to PAM01033 to PAM00944.

I know, that’s a lot of numbers and no pictures. Doesn’t really matter, I’ve finally narrowed it down pretty solid:
- it has to be a SUBMERSIBLE;
- black dial and bezel, with maybe just a touch of color;
- has to have the ceramic bezel:
- date complication is a must;
- size over 44mm, considering my wrist is flat and about 7.5 inches and threads claiming the 42 wears smaller;
- open back would be nice.



Not many candidates left, please add any I’ve missed:

1 - PAM00389 Submersible Amagnetic 3 Days 47mm, titanium, P.9000 calibre





2 - PAM01389 Submersible Amagnetic, basically the same watch as the one it replaced except for the new P.9010 caliber, coming with an independently adjustable hour hand, similar to GMT watches (cool to use at least twice a year or when traveling abroad);



Unfortunatelly, both watches come with a closed back so nothing to see there.



Hopefully, you’ve made it this far so thank you for your time and would love to hear your opinion.

Any happy owners of the above watches willing to share some wrist pictures?





Regards,
B.
