PAM 177 or PAM 176

 

Hi everyone,

This is my first time here and glad to say that in 2 weeks, will take ownership of my first Panerai which has been a while coming (I wasted 8 months trying every contact to find a Radiomir Black Seal Ceramic but anyway.....!!).

My question is one that is heavily down to personal taste so I appreciate its hard for you to answer but I am taking ownership of a PAM 177 which I really like but today saw a 176 and tried it on and have to say the simplicity of it really appealed to me.

While I like the stainless steel models, they are a bit shiny for me hence the desire for titanium but wondering if any of you have gone through the same thing? I have to admit I am wondering about swapping it for a 176 instead (not that I can go wrong either way because personally, I really like both) but any thoughts/comments are appreciated.

Some like the grey color of titanium while others don't. If you like the simplicity of the PAM176 and don't need the seconds hand in the PAM177, then I'd swap for the PAM176. In the end, you can't go wrong with either. For titanium models though, Panerai ...  

Thanks

Thanks Anthony. Long story but it appears I can't swap for the 176 as the AD doesn't have any nor getting any for a while and I don't want to wait as I like both of them. Titanium is definately my first choice but I might get a SS model later......... I t...
