I know. I wish I would have discovered PAM so many years ago! Feels like so many missed opportunities and they also seem to now a different route!

Good or bad? The good, the superb chocolate California dial, and the platinum case, even though we can discuss that, since it is always strange to have a platinum case for such a watch. The bad? Only 30 meters water resistant... The old italian divers wou...  

Not bad but the full-fat version is tastier

The king PAM21 The only "faux pas" is the strap buckle I know it is not the same budget as the California but one can always dream ...

I own a 262 that was recently serviced., the original retail price was $40,000 much more than the 249. Made in 2006 it’s getting to be a collectors item, I am a sucker for platium and the limited edition of 99 is pretty special. At this time, I cannot fin...
