I don't have the watch in my hands anymore as i bought it for a friend so i won't have the precise thickness but i can say that it's more than 15mm , i have an electronic digital caliper but out if battery...
My opinion of this watch ?? Well i'm far from an expert so i'll just say that it's good enough for me.
Thanks for your opinion and pictures.
Was just curious.

Hello,

I have an issue with this Pam. As it is my first automatic rep Pam i prefer to check with you before reaching my TD:
I can't wind it manually if i wind it clock wise ( 2 on the pic) i feel immidiately a strong resistance so i prefer not to force.
If i wind anticlock wise (1 on the pic) i can hear clicking but i can wind forever...with no action on the Power reserve.
If i shake it and wear it, it keeps Time.
I also can change the date and the hours and minutes.
So my questions are :Is it normal (i don't think so), what could be the problem ?

Many thanks

On my TD instructions i remove the CG and "play" with the crown but still no change.
I can settle the date and time but when i want to wind it manually, i don't hear the usual clicking sound but a kind of metallic friction...

Anyone else got their hands on this beauty? Hont's got a promo and I am considering it.

Must admit, always been tempted by this but never pulled the trigger, the sunburst green dial looks lovely..

I'm really happy with mine. I have bought a gen strap for it

Just got one from Hont for $358 (free shipping!). I think the dial is pretty good, maybe a little more bluish tint than gen. The Panerai logo color matches color of the dial numbers, but I think the gen logo is an orange color. The hands are definitely brighter blue than gen but I don’t mind them. The strap is the weak point for me. I bought a $25 Vietnamese crocodile strap on eBay that looks much better. For the price I paid it’s fair. I think they were a little over $400 when they first came out.
There are five listings on Chrono24 right now. The pictures are not great but gives you something to compare to.
