First Panerai I've ever strapped on

Post by suddha » Wed Nov 14, 2012 9:53 am

Hard to believe that in all these years of flipping, I've never so much as buckled a Panerai on my wrist. I got this PAM 305 as a loaner for my trip to Bonaire next week and I can tell already I love it and may need to add an OP to my collection very soon.

Sorry for the quick, crappy iPhone photo.

If I had the wrist for it, I'd absolutely take a 305 over a 243.

A 44mm 243, I've always said, will have my instant pre-order

O :) I agree .. Have had at least twenty straps in two months .. At least 2K right there ... a strap change always gives me a high !!! .. Still longing for a canvas strap.

Well it's about time.

Panerais rock, plain and simple. But the 243 owns the 305, especially with a T dial.

That's weird that in all this time you've never had one...

Love the 305 except for the 47mm case...

Have a great trip...
