PAM 532 - fight 'condition 0' and wear your watches

I have been wearing my 532 in the regular rotation and right now it has been on my wrist for a few weeks, not letting other watches close. Today I decided that this one will stay in the permanent collection. Together with the 111 they are now unsellable.

So, I am wondering what it would take for others to do the same. Knowing some of the controversies around the watch when launched, it seems to have been shunned by the hard core collectors. This likely is also the reason that on certain watch sites you have quite a few to sell, but in the forums none.

Hopefully that teaches the speculators a lesson and other cool new models can be bought by people that actually want to wear them.

Fight 'condition 0' and wear your watches! That's why they are supposed to be bought!!!

Totally agreed Dom
Watches are to be worn and NOT to be kept in the BOX

Is it true that I am the only one on this board with a 532 that is wearing it?

And good news, the available NIB dropped from 9 to 8 on a well known sale site!!!

Let's just hope the new owner is enjoying his watch on the wrist

I'm not sure the assessment that the 532 is shunned is true and there are plenty for sale on the website. I do see that watch on the what you wearing threads. I think the biggest gripe about the 532 (and frankly other watches in that price range) is the price. A lot of the old-timers have sensitively to $10k+ PAMs.

That being said, I love the 532 and it is certainly part of my rotation.
