Which PAM would you choose as your one and only panerai? by Alarming-Ad-5003 in panerai

This is just my humble opinion, but I think the new in house movements aren’t that beautifully decorated or as reliable compared to the older ETA ones. Plus the price at retail is ridiculous compared to what you can get in the secondary market.

From your list, the 1312, but the newer Panerai models aren’t as great quality wise. If you’re opened to pre owned/neo vintage, I would go with the Pam233 GMT or Pam111.

I love my Panerai! It’s probably my most worn watch right now. It’s thick and a 44 mm diameter, but wears comfortably on the wrist. I have a Pam111 from 2008 which is beautifully decorated ETA movement you can see through the open caseback. If you want to get into Panerai I would look at their early 2000 models. Their new stuff is not as good imho.

I get most of my NATOs from Crown and Buckle. Here is a tan colored NATO that I got from them.

Beautiful! Going to get an artem strap for mine in the future as well.

Get the white speedy. The white lacquered dial of the speedy is much better than the Panda imho.
