Loving my 312!!!

I've been going back and forth from Rolex to PAM for years. I've had about 10 different Rolexes and 4 different PAM's, and this 312 is my favorite of the lot by far. I can't put my finger on why, but it just has a more stunning look than any watch I've ever owned. I have the black kiva strap on it.

Also, I would love a good source for quality deployant straps if anyone knows of any. Looking for ones with thick stitching. Godspeed.

Love my 312. Though it was difficult to choose between this, a GMTIIC, a DSSD.... I think I made the right choice.

Can't wait to get one. I would love to see it on a vintage croc strap.

Joey- believe it or not...I went from a DSSD to a GMT IIc to the 312!
