I'm also a big fan of the Unitas powered 176. Had one. Sold it and wish I hadn't. Replaced it with a 562, Also 44mm. 8 day, tobacco sandwich dial. A worthy replacement. Good luck on

Which titanium models do you recommend and why? I am looking at the PAM 61 now but feel it’s kinda old!

THE legends. PAM 36 and PAM 40.

what happened when you service then? Do they replace the dials?

They DO replace the dials....

unless you send them to Neuchatel, where there is a special section to service and preserve tritiums and vintage models. This must be "guaranteed" by the boutique/A.D. BEFORE you deliver the watch. I had problems with the 36, few years ago, and I had to b... 

so what happens if there are mechanical issues?

I like things running well. That’s my reserve with the PAM 61

I think it looks cool

I'm a big fan of the old ETA 6497 models. The titanium case is a pleasure to wear. 176 and 177 models are affordable and can be worn without worry. Enjoy the decision and hunting process! -John ...

Back in the day, I had the 25 and 177.

Ti was my original preference as the dullness of the metal made the watch wear a little smaller (or at least that’s what I thought). Tonys watch has the best of many features, Ti case but stealthy DLC. And an interesting dial. I do think a Base model PAM ...
