scropper 0 Posted March 4, 2010 As the title says, I'm looking for dress pam recommendations - ideally with pics from you experts! Have had a 183 - loved it, but gave it to a friend who also loved it Really like the 232 and am prepared to do the cartel/dsn thing but dunno if it's too big to be considered dressy. Thoughts? Maybe a 210? with gold hands?? Can we even do that in rep-world? Are there any other models I should be considering? I've got a 113, 111 and 199, Feel that I need to get smart now! Thanks in advance for any and all responses. S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have the gold hands available?! Sweeeeeet - seen pics on risti and loved the look the modded gens have. Thought I'd have to get gen hands for it and wasn't keen to drop big dollars on a rep to be honest. Now, noob-time, who's JohnG? S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg_r 81 Posted March 4, 2010 My favourite dress PAM is my 288: Although, in all honesty, I wear my Fiddy rather more 210 sounds like a nice idea too, though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted March 4, 2010 How about a custom build sterile dial 111 from Getat? Simple, uncluttered, simple strap swapping to match outfits, superlume... Or screw the PAMs and go for a Glashutte Senator Sixties from Robert! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KBH 7 Posted March 4, 2010 Greg. Like that one. To me, the only Pams that are dressy are the Radiomirs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted March 4, 2010 Greg. Like that one. To me, the only Pams that are dressy are the Radiomirs. I tend to agree - the 111, Fiddy et al can look good when wearing 'smart casual', but somehow they don't quite work with a business suit (although that doesn't stop me if I'm in the mood to wear the Fiddy! ). Fortunately I don't have to wear a business suit very often (usually just for board/bored meetings ) - but when I do, I tend to go with my DeepSea, the 183 or the 288. Usually the latter. I think my SOH might start getting some wear in those situations too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
midasmook 14 Posted March 4, 2010 To me you already had the answer and gave it away. The 183 is the dressiest Pam I own and I keep it for when I need to be dressing up smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted March 4, 2010 183 in rose gold: Also, to my eyes, a polished steel PAM like this 111 on a dressy strap works: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fakemaster 0 Posted March 4, 2010 I've never viewed PAMs as dress watches. Are you talking about putting gold hands on a SS case watch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txcollector 0 Posted March 4, 2010 depending on the size of your wrist the 232 will not look dressy. With the right strap you can pull of the 183 or the 210. Not sure about gold hands though. BTW, where can we find a good 210 dial? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted March 5, 2010 Cali dial 45/47mm homage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
collector26 0 Posted March 5, 2010 Hard to find but for me its my Wempe 204 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted March 5, 2010 I think I could actually like that Wempe. Good looking! Hand winds are kind of a pain in the ass, though. I've got several and they don't get much wear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dingle 57 Posted March 5, 2010 the wempe movement looks amazing. Is that the seagull st-19? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe it's me - I find the handwinds less hassle... All that 'swirling' shit first thing in the morning... too much like hard work - not to mention setting the date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeteM 0 Posted March 9, 2010 Personally any base dial PAM or Rad is a good dress watch but no matter what you choose the key is the strap. OEM alligator or at a stretch calf. I also like the Logo though some say this is too sporty looking but the 204 would be more sporty for dress occasions IMHO same as a 212 without the CG Thats a nice 204 though whats the story on that??
