Thoughts guys? I've decided I want the luminor case over the Rad. So am definitely loosing the 183.

The 176 is 2009 ... K series I think.... Will have to recheck. From a reseller here who's a good guy.

No papers but box.

Wants my 183 + $750 AUD.

Was also considering the 111 or 112.

Am liking the clean dial + brushed titanium finish if the 176.

He's let me have the watch overnight to decide.

Pic attached.

Thanks!

oh no.... i do like the 176 too. Luminor case and sandwich dial and Ti case - YUM
(if there is an itch, scratch it

)

however, i still prefer the sausage dial for the Luminor and sandwich dial for the Radiomir though

Agree with Eric.

I don't know Dalip, the deal seem decent but the no papers would bother me. Your 183 is complete right?

And I know that you know within the PAM 2ndary market, complete is always the way to go.

just food for thought...

tried on both, 176 and the 112.

112 seems like it can be fancy and casual due to the shiny case. hahaha

i will go with the 112. cant wait!

Thanks so much for the advice ....I hear you Phil about the papers.....It would have to be a keeper!!! Still deciding....!!!

MortgageGuy · 8 April 2011, 03:28 AM

Yeah for me too the papers would be a deal killer... This only because I have NEVER once found a "KEEPER"

I do like the 176 though, had one and flipped it as it was a little light for me with the titanium over SS

really? is the word "keeper" even in your vocab?

all i can see is "flipper"

dalip · 8 April 2011, 10:00 AM

Thanks again guys.....really appreciate your input on this reference....I hadn't considered the 176 till I saw and wore it

@ Eric

I think I may need to see a 111/112 in person....compare and decide..

All sorts of conflicting advice at home....Alison doesn't know if she likes the brushed titanium....

But she doesn't like PAMs so I shouldn't listen

The 111/112 are at fantastic price points also......

I don't know

I will return today and rethink....I'll keep the 176 on my wrist until later in the afternoon.....

Have to say...last night I was really taken with it.....great to be able to keep a watch on for a couple of days .....

I'd pass for a better deal!

I feel sorry for your 183.... :cry:

Since when do you flip watches???

As much as I admire the Pam's Dalip, I can't help with the choice at hand sorry.
Although my favourite is the GMT....Go for that one!
