Pam 372 - uk

I have a 372 arriving next week, or so I am assured by the AD. I have paid a deposit but want to pass on this one. If anyone wants to step into my shoes, let me know: bod42zx@hotmail.com

Nice gesture! It's from an AD and not a Boutique?

Yes from an AD - no boutiques in the UK (yet)
A few have hit these shores so far - see the other well known forum.

Go Nathan!

Looks an awesome pice - is it 47mm as well?

Any idea of the list price out of interest? Unfortunately I'm in no position at the mo, but just widening my knowledge on the brand

Cheers Dan,
When announced the price was round the $10,000USD mark. It is 47mm. Apparently it is a limited production run of 3000 over two years. Letr's see what happens.

Surely for the money a 233 is a better buy. Yes the 372 is an SE watch but c'mon, is it really worth nearly £7k??

No, I don't think so..
That's why I'm not all that bothered with it

It is indeed priced on the high side for a watch with their 'beginner' in-house movement which is hound-wound and lacks seconds, date etc. It is a beautiful piece but...

Agreed 100%. I'm not seeing the value in the 372. I know it's "pure DNA" and hot at the moment, but not for $10,000 USD.

If only they would bake one of these base/base+sec models with the new 1950 case (like the 372) in a 44mm size.

It's a moot point to me anyway as the OP didn't respond. I may pick one up yet
