That was quick. We'll done, hope you enjoy it and also recover quickly.Arrived today. Impulse purchase whilst recovering from surgery. A well loved 176, a few scuffs and scrapes, but that doesn’t bother me.

Thank you. I have been looking on and off for a while now. What better tonic than a watch arrival. It’s probably my favourite base model.
I got to try the 1226 yesterday, as Goldsmith's in Belfast now has a Panerai section. Plan to return on Monday afternoon for a more leisurely goosey, had the children in tow yesterday which doesn't make for happy watch shopping.A bit of sunshine

Also tried a couple of 47mm carbotech subs. Each was amazing, but not 15k+ amazing.

What were your initial thoughts Rob? It’s a great summer/holiday watch, different vibe to carbo and steal Pams.

Initially a bit ambivalent, which surprised me as I expected to be blown away by it. I liked the OEM green strap much more than I thought I would, but otherwise was a bit meh. That being said, I plan to fly by on Monday afternoon when I am in Belfast (without children in tow) for a closer look, and will wear the 243 for a comparison. Probably take the 213 for the ride.

I took it off green rubber and popped it on the black. 243 is lovely so you may have it covered.

Always go back to old faithful, this one is first Pam i ever bought. Must have bought and sold this at least 5 times, but its a boomerang! Love it to bits.

The blue on this bezel still amazes me how gorgeous it is. Trying to decide if an Orange Panerai rubber strap will work

Beautiful Andy, looking on the Panerai website it looks like all of the the 47mm steel Radiomir’s have gone.422 arrived this morning.

That looks stunning, a torture to think I cannot wear a 47…422 arrived this morning.

Will have to stay happy with this one!
Thanks Lee. Hope your well.

Love the 8 day base.That looks stunning, a torture to think I cannot wear a 47…

I’ve got a 1033 and have owned a 590 in the past, both being 44mm. This doesn’t wear much bigger tbh. Partly due to a flat back and a 1950’s case with tapered lugs.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Maybe I will give it a go one day, but I don’t think I could buy without trying it on first.
I already feel like the 44mm case has loads of presence and I am not sure my wrists can take any more!
Like many I am sure, I would sell my soul in a heartbeat for a 372 or a 422 in 44mm…
But yeah for the 47mm case, I should try to see if I can try it on somewhere

OK, confession time.
I have a love/hate relationship with this thread.
I love browsing it to check out the Pam`s currently owned on here, but hate it that I do not have a Pam of my own, and I cannot decide which one I want.
Numerous Pam`s have appeared on SC over the past year but when I finally decide on making an offer, it`s gone. You snooze you loose eh?
At the minute I`m veering toward a Sub, probably 47mm, and Titanium case, not polished steel. However I`ve recently seen (Chrono24) a blue dial Sub, BMG Tech (I know not Titanium), and the dial looks simply superb.
Hoping and praying one appears on SC soon whilst the funds still allow.
Anyhow, keep them Sub pics coming,
regards, Daz.
Lovely that. Orange goes with everything! Do it

One that I’m happy with. Got just under what I advertised the 2020 for here and had to put a small amount of money in to complete the trade.

Is that my old 422 Andy? A cracking watch.

I am meant to be cutting back on the collection, but couldn't resist this beauty. Thanks to Nev for releasing it.

Still gets a lot of wrist time. Need to get back into the steel luminor game. Sold all of my favoured ones in the last year or so 590,914,213 to name a few.

That works. Very nice. Never considered RubberB before. I’ll have to have a look.Nice to have a 590 back. RubberB for summer.

My first posh watch (discounting the Omega Speedmaster Reduced I bought the previous year) was a new 2002 PAM116 - E-series, display back, sausage dial, titanium Luminor Marina. I sold it after several adventures, and have had a few Panerais since then, but nothing's stuck.
Last week this D-series PAM61 came up on the SC, and I had to jump at it. Lovely to have a titanium Pam back on my wrist.
1226 on new strap. It’s the strap where the stitching is lumed, alternate strap for my 1118. I think it looks great with the black/white combo.
I will try and get a lume shot later
