PAM 322?
Gents,
What are your feelings with regard to the PAM 322. I have the opportunity to acquire one at the original price (it is from a trusted source and it is brand new in box) and with the titanium case and tobacco dial, I find it appealing. In addition, with 47mm it is the correct size as well.
Now, it aint a cheap watch and there is some serious competition out there as well. I see in another post (from Rahul) the PAM 127, which I could get as well.
Preferences from others for the PAM322 vs PAM127 or other PAMs in this price category?
Just curious what you all think about the PAM322, it seems like a marvelous piece, but never really hear much talk about it (but that might actually also be because with 50 pieces there are not that many owners that can speak about the watch....)
Have a good weekend!

stunning watch..
never seen a 322 in the metal but at 47mm and minerva movement..you can't beat that... I think like you said, it does not get much love as its just a rare bird...awesome piece..more limited.. simply elegantly stunning... look forward to photos!
It is my favorite Radiomir and
Nicolas made a special post with mine: "Review-Panerai: Highlights on the Panerai PAM322" and followed by some more recent pics A rare bird, I am really fan ;-))) Cheers, Patrickh
My 'signature' remark.....
when it comes to choices. If you can afford them, get both... Between the two, though, 127 all the way. The 322 is a beautiful watch ( I have a 309...sigh) but I believe the dial of the Fiddy is, together with the 249 and the 232 among the purest Panerai ...
Assuming that you do like both of them somewhat equally
Then I would no doubt go for the PAM322 now, especially if you can get one at original list price for the following reasons: -Historic dial -Fantastically finished movement -EXTREMELY limited -Value wise, compared to the going price of the PAM127, it's a ...
Well...
To be honest, If the Pam 322 really speaks to you, then go for it! It is definitely a beautiful piece, and if it is only 1 of 50 manufactured then if I were you and I was really taken by this watch, Id get this before the 127. The reason? Same as what Jes...
you've said it !
it is a Marvelous Watch and a Rare Bird as well. . i'd definitely go for it . as you know, they're quite a few of the 127s for Sale now a days. Cheers
Don't buy the PAM322 because it's only a rare piece...
Be warned that I bet Panerai will make more of these Radiomirs w/ Minerva movements. So I wouldn't be surprised to see some steel, white gold, rose gold, and platinum variants of the PAM322. Just slap on a different colored dial, and you have a new model....
Ah stupid me
Either way, 45mm or 47mm doesn't matter. Panerai could just slap on another dial and it's another limited edition piece. My main point is to bring across the point to not buy the PAM322 because only 50 pieces were made. - AT
Anthony, you are perfectly right, only buy a 322 if you fall
in love for this incredible model, as myself. It is difficult to make a jugment on this model without seen it, wearing it and earing his nice calibre sound. My precious, really ;-)) Cheers, Patrickh
For me.... 322
FWIW ... It sounds like you have a great opportunity right now on the 322, It's my favorite Panerai!
PAM322 vs PAM127 ..PAM322 for sure
IMHO, love the tobacco dial, movement... i'm new to commenting on the forum, however from the forums seems like PAM127 "Fiddy" is THE panerai to own ..especially if you want the trademark crown-guard...oh well.. i can't afford either but just commenting f...
