*** Too many (similar) Pams? New additions search help please ***

[kingcrab]

Hello All

Ok, "if" you already have these, would getting similar looking ones make sense?

Pam 571+569

Possible adding Pam 364?

Pam 029M.

Possible adding 297

Thank you for your comments

No one can answer that question but yourself. It all depends on what you're after. If you love submersibles, is there any reason to not buy more? Of course not!

Have you considered submersibles that somewhat different such as the 382 or 389?

I personally like a variety of PAMs, base, base plus second hand, complications, in Luminor and Radiomir configurations.

That said, all the models you picked out look good. I'd narrow it down to models that have great or super reps.

 

[kingcrab]

Thank you for your reply. Yes, super rep is def one of the main reason when I look for the watch. thx again

The PAM297 is on sale by the way, in case you're looking to get one.

I don't really pay particular attention to what I already have when getting PAMs. Must be a sign. :lol:

 

[kingcrab]

Mysterio yeah that's one of the reasons why I m looking at them

i used to do that as well lol

The PAM187 and 364 have a different construction than the PAM569 and the PAM571, the PAM382, PAM508/607 and PAM616 have different case materials. The PAM243, PAM087 and PAM024 are 44mm. Depends on what differentiation you want to have in your collection. My only criteria is not the same model number. :lol:

The PAM364 (not 346 that's a radiomir ) has a beefier bezel, like the PAM194 and PAM187, both of which are only available as low grade and first class level reps, respectively. The PAM364, either V6F or Noob, are super rep level.

If you want a super rep that's a little different, I enjoy my pam88 gmt. I'll also have to agree with what was said above. If you like submersibles, why not just get them all?? [emoji1]

 

[kingcrab]

[MENTION=96936]evilpenguin[/MENTION], lol, so ture, I am getting there haha

@myesterio, can you pls tell me the difference between Pam 571(kw/super rep) and Pam 364? I know the dial design is different, as I already have 569+571, TIA

I love that 389 but man 47mm is is a honking tank.

Honestly I thought it would be too until I got my first submersible, the 508. It turns out they just sit so well on my 7" wrist. Of course I decided to collect them all and add a 127 on top! [emoji1]

The bezel design is different on the PAM364, beefier and much more prominent than the PAM571 (which follows the contemporary Panerai submersible design). It is like a reissue of the PAM285, which was released in 2009, which in turn was a reissue of the PAM194 which was released in 2004.

My wrist is even smaller at 6.25" and half of my PAMs are 47mm. :lol:

 

[kingcrab]

Well wish I got a 7".....wrist that is lol, but as wifey said its how I use it haha

thx to all with comments. the 47mm is really comfy on my wrist, esp the titanium ones

Yep! Just added a 571 V6 to my collection, and it wears very well indeed. ;-)
