Officine Panerai

Basic model

 

    Personally speaking, I think you are now in the right way to own your first pam coz one of the most important elements of pam is simplicity referring to the vintage models. This is what we could not find in other brands though many pams now have busy dial with different functions, I myself still stick to the basic smile

    All pams made by Richement could obviously tell you they succeed the heritage and history of this famous brand, however, succession doesn't mean no changes. Dated back to the very first models Richement made such as A series 001, 002, 004, 009 ... they all have painted dial but using Tritium instead of Luminova. If you observe the dial you could find the clue beneath the number 6 like this: L swiss made L instead of T-swiss-T. If you decide to collect pam as a long term fun game, you could think about this later.

   As a daily beater for a start, yes, 005, 111 or 112 , 219 maybe a good choice. 005, 111 has small second hand while 112 and 219 doesn't. Therefore, 112 and 219 called luminor base and 005 and 111 called luminor marina. Small second hand is also a very important sign of pam and if you care about C.O.S.C certificate, then you gotta go with 005 or 111.
