Just taken delivery of my new Panerai 312.

My other watches are all Rolex including my favourite, a Stainless Steel Daytona

A friend introduced me to Panerai and I was hooked. I purchased the 312 in Stratford On Avon and I'm thrilled with it, such beautiful watch, I cant stop smiling.

I can see why you all love Panerai's so much

WELCOME To TRF...Huge Congrats For Your New 312!!!

Post some pics, please...

JF23 · 4 August 2009, 10:35 PM

Congrats and great first PAM, just wait till the strap addiction kicks in and it's a whole new level of addiction.

raikkonen · 4 August 2009, 10:45 PM

Funny you should say that, I've been looking all morning.........

Psmith · 4 August 2009, 10:51 PM

Congrats on the 312

Yep, soon you'll be agonising over stitching colours & styles for straps, then there will really be no going back.......

Cheers

gone2vegas · 5 August 2009, 12:44 AM

Congrats on the new watch! Excellent choice.

tuisquash · 5 August 2009, 12:56 AM

congrats, and weeeeeeeeeelcome, let's buy some straps!!!

xbox · 5 August 2009, 01:20 AM

Nice purchase - would love to see some pics

Buy straps, but don't forget to get a bracelet ..... you know it makes sense

bodybump · 5 August 2009, 01:57 AM

Congrats on the 312!!!! Now lets see those beauties!!!!!

B. Doggy · 5 August 2009, 02:33 AM

Nice first Panerai!!

Chrisxx · 5 August 2009, 02:44 AM

Congraulations!! I was actually in stratford upon avon at 4 today looking at the other 312 they have in stock.

Martin showed me around the Pam selection, I thought I wanted 111 but fell in love with the 312.

Pragnells is an excellect shop and I was impressed with the experience, and service on my first visit.

I am so tempted to buy the 312, it is the best!!

Best wishes,
Chris

GBJIV · 5 August 2009, 02:54 AM

A lot of people ask what should there first PAM be.... I really think the 312 is an excellent choice. Mega congrats - welcome to this crazy side.

raikkonen · 5 August 2009, 04:02 AM

Yes, Martin was extremely helpful. I didn't know they had another in stock, you should rush back tomorrow and put down a deposit. I'll definitely buy from them again when funds allow

raikkonen · 5 August 2009, 04:34 AM

Here you go folks

TswaneNguni · 5 August 2009, 05:33 AM

I am very tempted, I was interested by the "pseudo" quick set date, that was quite cool and very much in the style of my GMT. The 1950 case, display back, beautiful.

Also looked at the Jaeger World Time Alarm (I think) which was awesome but way out of my current price range.

Psmith · 5 August 2009, 12:45 PM

Cheers

If you're willing to wait, they will drop just like anything else.

Pulpdiction · 15 August 2009, 03:22 AM

I was in pragnells last week speaking to Martin abgout the 312 and he said he had just sold one and they had no more coming in until April next year!!!!

I have just decided to get this watch ans went in sarch of one, tried on the Bell & Ross BR02 Chrono as well which I also now have on my shopping list, so I was gutted, said I missed out by 2 days!!! Arrrgghhhh!!!

Anyway got one elsewhere, deposit paid Panerai confirmed delivery would be mid September, so just counting the days.

congrats,bro! welcome to the club! i am also a proud owner of a 312!

karmatp · 15 August 2009, 06:13 AM

Huge congrats, I think most of us were true Rolex lovers until we discovered Panerai, now, I have a hard time wearing one. Panerai just has so much more to offer, and changing up straps is incredibly entertaining, you just never get bored with a watch.

The 312 is a amazing watch, probably my next.
