I’ve owned quite a few references over the years but the only one that remains in the collection is my 90. It was my first ‘proper’ watch, and a gift from my wife, making it a keeper. A little different from other PAM90s in that I’ve had it engraved and a non-cyclops crystal fitted. I must dig it out soon.

I've never seen an engraved watch that I even remotely liked before but that is stunning!!
Do you mind me asking who did it and what the cost was??
(Sorry if that's rude in any way!!)
Some lovely watches posted here, I’ve not been a fan of Panerai generally but on Sunday whilst getting a bracelet sized on a new purchase ( other make) I tried on a 44mm base and was very impressed, size perfect and just felt right.
Now the search starts.
I am a latecomer to Panerai having just bought this very cool PAM0088 as a result of this thread. For many years this model has been one of only a few Panerais that really appealed and I am glad to say it hasn't disappoint in the flesh. Something very distinctive and a great strap watch for a bit of variety in my fairly conservative watch horde.

Just to keep the group shot theme going. Rob and i got together for a coffee with the Pams, lighting in the cafe wasnt great.........

Haven’t noticed a picture of a carbon one on the thread yet, so here’s one I owned for a while...
A stunning watch and so comfortable. If it didn’t have Carbotech written on the dial I would still have it.
I’m considering one of the smaller versions, most likely a 40mm for my 6.75” wrist. Found what appears to be a good one, a 0050, but I’m not convinced I’ll wear it on the bracelet as it’s a bit OTT for my tastes. The rubber is more likely.
Any major negatives to the 40mm?
Going rate for the bracelet if I sold it on?
Thanks

My wrists are marginally smaller than yours and I bought both the 40mm luminor and radiomir thinking they would be perfect.
After wearing them for a while they looked to small and I wish I had gone bigger. I took a bath on both when I moved them on, the market for that size is incredibly small.
Go for a 42mm, it may feel a little larger but believe me, you will regret buying a 40mm.
There is something about pams that make them look so good in group shots. Don’t know what it is...
I think its the straps, nice straps make the pam pop!
True. Here is one of a group of a 187,243,389 and 615.
Love the 615. Proper wrist presence.True. Here is one of a group of a 187,243,389 and 615.

My wrist is 6.75 and 40mm is as big as I will go on a Pam.
Compared to a 40mm Rolex they wear much larger

My wrist is around 6.5-6.75 and I wear 47mm pams comfortably
It might be comfortable, but then the lugs overhang your wrist, that's a big watch to carry off.
Wore this over the weekend for the first time in a bit.
I cant quite decide if i would like a PAM or not but that one i wouldnt hesitate about. It has a lovely patina.It might be comfortable, but then the lugs overhang your wrist, that's a big watch to carry off.

Love my 390 and yearning for a 944....
Lovely. Was sooooooooo close to buying a 390 before pulling there trigger on a 560. One day maybeLove my 390 and yearning for a 944....
47mm on a 6.5? Blimey. Goes against all logic, but it doesn’t look as extreme as the specs would suggest.
The 40mm looks fine, but of course photos can be deceptive.
I think it’s time to find some to try on and compare.
Walter, yours looks fabulous.

Re relatives wearbility here are a couple if posts I did re this. The sizes don't reflect how well they wear, some 47mm sit/fit better than 44mm.

Another Zero onboard!
I’m loving my 631. It’s probably a less popular boutique model due to some technical departures (like spring bars) from the usual Panerai solutions. However apparently it’s the last Panerai with the ETA/Unitas 6497 movement. As the Unitas derives from the original Cortebert/Rolex movement and used even in ETA form in Panerai watches since pre Vendome era, in terms of movement you can think of it as the last real Panerai.

I've luck to have a few in my time after I got over my preconceived notion of Panerai
Currently only the 913 in the collection as the others have gone, no doubt there will be others (next dot dial 233 i think)

I am desperate for a 425 radiomir. I want the little sub on the dial.

Is the 00913 still available to purchase new?
And looking at the images above, there's little better than a Pam on an assolutamente strap...
Picked this up this morning from Cat7
