I see. If I were you, I would perhaps stick to the 289

The two pieces are quite similar although the magazines rate PAM 277 as a more 'collectable' item by virtue of it being a LE (250). The waiting list is pretty long and some of my friends are told it will be months before they can get their ordered piece.

You probably know this already - the '4-star' PAMs are 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 21, 46, 65, 67, 80, 147, 194, 203, 228, 262, 317

There are of course more '3-star' PAMs, e.g. 4, 9, 23, 26, 28, 29, 36, 40, 64, 81, 82, 92, 108, 117, 127, 156, 162, 172, 192, 193, 202, 217, 222, 246, 249, 252, 253, 274, 275, 276, 277, 286

This is a rather subjective list, nor is it exhaustive...

Here is a wrist shot

 
 By: samwan : September 13th, 2008-19:18
I had it for about a month. The piece is very solid, and therefore heavy. Frankly, it's somewhat flashy, like a chunk of gold on your hand. If I had a choice, I would probably go for the 275 but I understand the SS model is not available yet. All in all, ...  

thank you for the wrist shot... only one month?

I have the pam 289 and I feel the 277 is just a different combo with the blue and the rose gold coming together. Why only one month? Didn't care for it? I am thinking if one rose gold piece is enough or should I get them both. Love the 289 but just for th... 

Sorry can't give any thoughts on it :(

The PAM277 was one of 2 or 3 Panerai models that I didn't get a chance to see in person at SIHH 2007 and still haven't seen one in the flesh yet. They were all taken during my appointment But I can picture in my head the shiny blue dial with the RG case, ... 

I insisted back in 07
