GMT's
I'm trying to decide between the various Luminor GMT's and I'm not sure they all work the way a Rolex GMT does. With the Rolex GMT you set the 24 hour hand for "home" time, and then set the other hour had for "local" time. From past experience this seems to be a very simple and easy setup to use when traveling frequently.
I know the PAM 159 has gone but could still be found. The PAM 244 seems similar. And then there's the PAM 88 and PAM 270, and in the hand-wound corner the PAM 233. I like details of all of them but need a bit more of an understanding of how they function as a GMT.

It certainly seems like you've got the "setting" thing down. Now all you have to do is choose from an extremely wide variety of PAMs that have the GMT function. I happen to be a GMT "freak" and own the 29A, 88K, 89E - all GMT's but different in their pres...

I believe the short answer is, "no". None of the Panerai work the way a Rolex GMT does. My understanding is that the older style of Panerai are useful for keeping track of another single time zone or keeping track of GMT or useful as a 24 hour hand in you...
