Hi Everyone,

First post here! I have been obsessively reading the forums for the last two weeks and have a couple of clarifying questions that I think you can help out with for me to finally hammer down the model I would like. I have read and searched extensively but were unable to find these answers.

With a very small wrist and trying on gen PAM watches of varying sizes at an AD, I have narrowed it down to 42mm Radiomir for my first watch.

1st question: Does the 1940 Radiomir case allow the use of a SS bracelet? I have searched far and wide and was unable to see any examples of this. Is this possible? This is the main reason that I would prefer this case style compared to the other Radiomir models. If it cannot support a SS bracelet, I am open to the other lug type of the Radiomirs.

2nd question: Of the 1940 Radiomir models, besides the lume color green-ish (PAM574) vs. yellow-ish (PAM512) and movement P.999 (PAM512) vs. P.1000 (PAM574), is there much difference between these two models? And is there a general consensus as to which is a better rep at the moment?

I apologize for the long questioning and newbie terms, but thank you in advance for your help! This site has been a wealth of knowledge and very helpful.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but i dont think you will get a radiomir with a bracelet. In fact getting any rep (apart from the 297/299) with decent fit is nigh impossible.

Enjoy it on the strap. It takes a while to adjust but honestly, its the only way to pam..

Thanks for the reply. This is what I figured and would definitely love wearing it with a strap. I just wanted to see if the bracelet was an option for special occassions. Looking at other threads, I think I am going to go with the PAM574.

My 356 and 785 would like to argue against it. LOL

Well even in gen form there is no bracelet available for the 1940s case.
