Arronax's original post, capturing a Panerai Submersible in a dealership showroom, sparks a fascinating discussion on the evolution of watch perceptions. His candid reflection on the PAM 24/25's journey from a 'poser's watch' to a charming, capable timepiece offers a valuable perspective for collectors navigating changing trends and personal tastes. This article delves into the community's insights on how certain references gain and lose their 'fashionable' status.

Dealer showrooms are generally well suited for wristshots with tall ceilings and plenty of spotlights playing with the submersible domed sapphire. The 24 and 25 bezel eats jacket liners like no other of my watches, merciless. Have good weekend!

Minor recall, I was out under one hour which on a weekend is about as good as it gets.todays visit was another realization that new cars keep on getting bigger and more expensive, some of the stickers are downright ridiculous.

Truth be told I had originally discounted the 24/25 as a poser's watch but they have a lot of charm, don't take themselves too seriously and perform reasonably well under water. Throw in the typical proclivity to be a real strap monster and overall it makes for an attractive package.

Seem to be regularly scanning the classifieds for a car I could turn into an expedition vehicle. But hardly any new car would qualify…

If loving this poser's watch is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Luminors and to a lesser extent the subs were on the wrists of all the wrong people around me. Proof if need be that one should stay open to new ideas. Alternatively I may have turned into a poser over the past twenty years
