PAM 233 vs PAM 268
Fellow friends, I have the opportunity to purchase one of the two PAMs. One of them is from an AD nearby while the other is a NIB from a trusted reseller. I'm contemplating between the two as both are very hard to come by and I'm so lucky to come across both but at the same time??! Can only afford one... and can't afford to wait too long! In terms of looks, I feel that the PAM 233 looks neat and suits my taste of sporty and masculine while the PAM 268 is more stylish, elegant and classic. In terms of rarity, Im not quite sure which would be considered more than the other. I love the fact that both are 8-days power reserve, stainless steel and are 45mm. Big dilemma... which one?? Expert advise required pls!! Regards

I am bias - 233 gets my vote
I have the 233 and I think it has struck a great balance between sport and dressy. Regarding access they are both standard production and not limited editions so, even though they are hard to come by, they should continue to be available for any AD over t...
Couple things to think about
In terms of rarity, both the PAM233 and PAM268 are regular production watches so I wouldn't consider one more rare than the other. Do you currently have any Panerai's? If so, which ones? Radiomirs or Luminors? If this is going to be your 1st Panerai and y...
I agree
As a Panerai collecter I agree that your first one should be a Luminor, and the 233 should be easy to sell in the future. my current collection 88, 25, 250, 113, 177. One i sold 118, 183, and fiddy
If you regret selling your fiddy, I'm sure u can replace it with the
fiddy base whenever that comes out. It's only a matter of time when Panerai makes the 47mm 1950 base IMO Cheers, Anthony
