PAM 177 or PAM 176
Hi everyone,
This is my first time here and glad to say that in 2 weeks, will take ownership of my first Panerai which has been a while coming (I wasted 8 months trying every contact to find a Radiomir Black Seal Ceramic but anyway.....!!).
My question is one that is heavily down to personal taste so I appreciate its hard for you to answer but I am taking ownership of a PAM 177 which I really like but today saw a 176 and tried it on and have to say the simplicity of it really appealed to me.
While I like the stainless steel models, they are a bit shiny for me hence the desire for titanium but wondering if any of you have gone through the same thing? I have to admit I am wondering about swapping it for a 176 instead (not that I can go wrong either way because personally, I really like both) but any thoughts/comments are appreciated.
