I liked the original & also saw the latest model at SIHH >>>

I really like the sweep seconds hand (my photos from SIHH 2010) and hoping to add this GMT soon:

Looks great. Is there any other pam that had a big sweeping seconds hands? I don't recall seeing one before.

Icon4 PAM 29 question

Will the PAM 29 use a different movement than the Panerai OP VIII calibre in my PAM 88?
The PAM 29 has a sweep second hand instead of a second hand on the 9 o'clock sub dial.
Can the OP VIII movement be modified or does it require a totally different movement?
I examined the PAM 29 at the TRF GTG in Columbus, Ohio and discovered that it uses screws to attach the strap instead of the new push button system.
The PAM 29 appears to be a retro design that is similar to the original PAM 29 from the A and B series that used an ETA 2893/2 movement.

Nad always takes great shots, but I'm not a fan. The dial texture just isn't for me. I don't have the style to pull it off!

The PAM29 is a nice looking watch. Does anyone know how many beats per second?
