Hi, I'm about to trade in my Lnib milgauss + $500 for a Bnib Pam 177. Do you guys think that's a fair deal?

The reason why I've been wanting to get a Pam 177 is because it looks good on ammo straps or vintage looking straps. Just like Rob montana's pannie

For white Milaguss, that's a good offer to me. Go for it.

Honestly...Sorry I must to say this, 177 looks more better than white Milgauss.
I know, because I have white Millie before...
Trade it, or the price will go down in the future...

I used to own a GV for a short period of time and I can say this here because this is the Panerai forum........BUT THAT SECOND HAD IS JUST STUPID. I just don't get it, they should have re-introduced that model with the straight second hand like some of the previous models from years past.

The Pam 177 is a much better looking watch, do it.

My most regret watches is
Explorer II white dial & Milgauss white dial. Enough white dial for me. Why? Because I live in Asia, and here white dial is not to be interested in.

Don't get me wrong, I like Expy II but in here (I don't know in Singapore), the preowned value is down. Better buy a black Expy II, can hold the value more good than white.
