PAM 389 has arrived. My first Panerai: pics

Recommended Posts

I received this beast a few days ago. Great communication and service from Robbie and once again, a very good watch. I cannot recommend Robbie enough.

 

This is the cheaper version with the Seagull movement and stainless steel case. It's very, very nice and great quality for the price. It has a couple of 'tells' that do not bother me at all but for those weighing up this against the 1:1 version, the subdial recess is not as deep as the gen and the word 'Amagnetic' should be grey rather than white.

 

It's big of course but it's only the size of a G-Shock. I love the size and profile.I was not expecting to like the rubber strap but I do. I'll still get a leather strap though.

 

Here's some photos.

Beautiful. One suggestion: consider a Nero strap for it - JohnG sourced the exact same shade of green for the thread on mine:

I wish my wrist wasn't so small. I can barely pull off a 44mm so the titanium and bronze submersibles are out of the question for me unfortunately ;/

 

Awesome watch, though! Wear it in good health!

Well, at least the PAM243 Submersible is a 44mm super rep.

Yeah not to derail the thread too much but I've been wanting a Ti submersible in 44mm. I'm not even sure if there's a gen PAM that fits those requirements...

Honestly the ST is the way to go. Can't beat the price and the movement is solid. I own one myself and it never leaves my wrist. Wear it well!
