What a pleasure PAM005

I must say what a nice forum, I visited one of the local AD on Saturday and managed to pick up the lovely 005.

Special thanks to Tswanenguni for all your help in the decision making.

Now for a photo, i need some serious practice, but at least trying :-)

Now time for a strap, there are so many options !!!

Congrats!

The 005 was my first PAM - made the mistake of selling it - and missed it so much I had to pick another one up. It's a keeper!

Leonard,huge congrats !! ENLOY !! I think you will find that after the wrist felt Panerai,nothing else "feels right" again.

Buying the first PAM can be a daunting experience.First,there are so many nice models that it is difficult in deciding on which one !! and then not everything is available at a given time.I think you made a great choice on "The Five"
