Hi!

I just registered here a view days ago, because i´m bying an Omega Rep and want to get all the informations...
As someone said to me in welcome thread "welcome to the addiction!". The last view days i scrolled and clicked around in the whole forum, and the more often i see a PAM, the more i like to have one.

Because my other watches are very simple ones (optical and funktional) with eventually a date on it, i like to have a chronometer also. Here comes the PAM250 Daylight, that is actually at the market place, which fit´s perfectly to my wishes. But maybe the seller does not want to deal with an absolutely new member, so i am looking around at the shops of the TD`s.

Here i found this edition: PAM 250K Daylight A7753
I think, i would also place it on a good brown leather strap (with more vintage look).

Would this be a good decision, or ar there much better ones in that price range?

And one last question: as i´m a little lost at the wrist shots i can find in the show off section, can anybody helb me out? I have a really small wrist with 6.5 inches and would appreciate one or two pictures with a Panerai 44mm watch on a wrist like this, because i am not shure, if the watch isn´t already too big.

Thank´s in advantage for any help or hint!

Best Regards

Thank you very much!
This review makes my decision stronger now. The flaws don´t bother me, because i will not see them, when i´m wearing the watch.
I also found the PAMGUIDE (VERY great work done, by the way!) and worked through it. I found several beautiful watches and could break it down to 4 watches, that came in the inner circle. After comparing the pictures, the 250 Daylight wins again - decision made!

I will go for the ultimate edition and am thinking about adding the watch to the order of my Omega. But this will be higher risk to get stuck on it´s way into europe while saving shipment costs on the other side...
This is the only real decision, which is not made until now. Goodbye my savings, would have been cheaper, not to find my way in here... :pinch: :wink:

I did it yesterday. My PAM 250K is ordered and i am really curious, how it looks in real live and how it fit´s on my wrist.
What a will change is the strap, because i don´t really like crocos...

So, got my QC Pictures. Watch looks great and i can find no flaws (unless big second is black/red), compared to the pictures in the review.
But there is no picture at the timegraph. Should i ask for some, or is this not necessary? When not, i just will give me OK to send the Package away.

In between i have gotten my timegraph picture and after some misunderstandings the watch should be on the way to me, or at least get on it´s way tomorrow.

I like the pictures very much and the timegraph indicates, that i will at least not get a bad working watch:






I know about the "wrong" colour on the big second hand, but i am fine with it. I like the color as it is and so i did not regret the watch.

Normally i don´t really like chronos, because most of them are too much for the eye. But this wach looks very clean altough it is full of information. I can´t really describe it, but it cought the eye and directly made me wanna have it. :hypnotized::love:

Maybe, it would be better to stop reading in this forum, because there are some more watches that i really do like now, for example the PAM029 which is very beautiful....

I will post some more pictures, when i have gotten my watch. I hope it is not too big on my 6,5 inch wrist.

Received my Daylight today with my Spectre Watch and i am really keen of it! It looks very beautiful and clean and fit´s perfect on my 6.3 inch wrist (it was my biggest fear it would be to big).
I like the watch even more, than i did it from the pictures.
I also like the black croco leather more than i thought. But i will buy a Jacob strap or a strap from Bakeka for sure because i want to have a brown vintage strap for it.

A quick wrist shot:



Some more pictures to come, when i have time for better ones. Lume Shot will be taken also for sure.

Hi!

I have bought it from Ryan/InTime. Super easy deal and a fast delivery, when keeping in mind that holidays were everywhere.

Today, italian leather arrived at my home. I have ordered a strap from Bakeka and got it today. He is a really nice guy and helps where he can to determine the right size for the strap.
His price for a handmade strap is very nice and the work looks great for my opinion:







As the pictures are only made with my phone (not the best camera available in a phone), quality i poor but i think it shows the color of the leather and how great it works on that watch. I like the watch even more now!
