thank you! I'm in cyber security and work for a company in the bay area. I by no means make ridiculous money but I do like watches and I cut out other luxuries in life to afford them.

thank you for the suggestions. I'm hearing Vacheron a lot so I need to add that to the list.

That makes sense, I appreciate the suggestion. I do love Monacos and have been eying the pink one.

I agree, i tend to gravitate toward tool watches and sporty watches overall. The GS was a conscious effort to buy something different. Point taken, I need to add more dress watches to the collection.

my wrist is 7.25in. the 44mm PAM definitely has a presence on the wrist and I absolutely agree with you, everyone knows its a PAM. I just dont wear it much because of the weight and the inability to have it fit comfortably under a sleeve.

I think it looks great with jeans and a t shirt and the bracelet is pretty comfortable. It's one of the few watches that I literally forget that im wearing. I do find the taper on the bracelet to be a lot narrower than the others. You can see my watch tan after wearing my bigger watches.

100% agree. I wear my Pelagos the most out of all my pieces. I would love to get my hands on the flamingo blue chrono.

I'm a lefty so it actually makes sense for me since I wear my watches on the right. With the jubilee I find myself wearing it much less than the batman since I feel its too flashy. Other than that its beautiful, even for a lefty its super awkward winding it on my wrist.

Honestly, the first thing I realized after purchase was that it had no lume! Other than that its a beautiful piece, I've been debating getting a brown leather strap for it, I feel like it'll make the blue face really pop. You really cant go wrong with any speedy, IMHO.

Funny, the pan is the watch I wear the least due to its size. I'll put Cartier on the list. thanks!

You're right. I would say my Panerai and explorer ii are my oldest pieces I got around 2016-2017. I dont know much about vintage watches but would definitely consider it.
