PAM590 Q-Series....decisions, decisions, decisions

[tegee26]

Hello Panerai fan club,

I was fortunate enough to stumble upon a NOS Panerai PAM590 when visiting my local AD. I gentleman purchased it from the AD back in 2014 and literally never worn it. It's still in the box and he is flipping it for another purchase.

It is the much sort after Q-Series, the first year they made the PAM590, and at the time, a LE to 1000-pieces to the US only.

I currently own a PAM104 and love it. Have many straps and love changing it up each time I wear it. However, I own five very nice timepieces but none of the same brand. That's part of the quandary. Also, this will be my first "manual wind", all my other watches are automatics if that plays a factor in the decision making.

My question is (I need help from the enablers here....lol) should I jump on it and grab it? The pricing is very favorable and the local AD is super to work with and very established in our town.

Well that's the brief background and need some help from those that either own multiple Panerai's or those that are familiar with the PAM590. Or whoever else wants to chime in....go for it:-).

Thanks so much in advance for any help you can provide....the more input the merrier.

All the best!
