Hi, posting for the first time here. I am looking to buy my first PAM rep and am uncertain about a few things.

I own a Marina Militare titanium cased watch I put together and love it. I love diving watches and the 243 looks amazing but I am worried its going to be too massive a watch being all SS as well as not knowing how much bigger the 1950 style case is over the Luminor case.

I might just stick with a 177 so I don't need to worry about it all.

The diameter is pretty much the same and looking at it from the top it doesn't seem bigger to me, the dial is smaller than 177 so it doesn't look massive. It does sit taller on the wrist visible from the sides, kinda like a tuna can. But who gives a shit, I don't, cause the watch is awesome.

I agree...the 243 is a really nice looking watch.

However, if you are concerned with the size...there are soooo many nice super reps available! It will a lot of fun for you to try and decide which one.

I hope you find the right watch for you....

Hi mugs
Firstly Welcome to RWI from Spain
No worries abut the size of PAM 243 it wears almost the same as your Luminor Marina 44mm and the dial is smaller.
It is a beautiful watch and a very good Super replica. You will not get disappointed.
Anyway read the PAM GUIDE you have much more Super rep options. Just read.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I have been pouring over the guide for the last few days ALE, and its been a huge help.

I think I'll go with a 243, I really have a thing for dive watches and I've already got a watch thats so simular to the 177 that I want to try something new.

I really like the 177 as far as looks and simplicity go. PAM's have a large strap and sit fairly low which helps to balance the weight. They also sit very flat against the wrist. If you are very active and plan to dive with it or swim. I would go with the 177 because of its resistance to sweat and sea water.
