My Bond PAM
Hello dear Friends! Id just wish to share here one of my favorite Panerai watches. I affectionately call it, "My James Bond Pam"! It is a Radiomir Pam 190, a very nice 45 mm version of the classic model. Its two less mm of case and being of the Radiomir...
Hey Abel, I didn't know Sean Connery wore a Pam 190!
A very nice Panerai, with its top JLC movement. Thanks for the link with Sean Connery. Un abrazo. Nicolas
Thank you dear Nicolas! Glad I could surprise with the Connery connection!!
... An elegant and beautiful watch for a classy man! Don t you think so?? Un abrazo mi amigo! Abel
Side by side the Panerai 190 with the JLC Eight Days
The Panerai 190 was the only watch I kept of the original strap in the original configuration. Below is the JLC with the same eight day movement. I think Panerai did a great job hiding the the reserve counter. Abel put the watch near your ear you can bare...
Cool to see the two. And I agree on the fact that it was a great idea to hide the PR on
The Panerai PAM 190. Best, Nicolas
Thank you for your comments and awesome photos Bill! Yes it is true...
I like to listen to the movements ticking, but I can barely hear that of my 190 A very quiet movement. It also surprised me the small diametrr of its balance wheel. Your JLC 8 days is a beaty! Thanks for sharing Bill!
Two more shots of the Movement Panerai 190 and JLC eight days
Very different but equally beautiful. Bill ...
About them apples?.....
Although, the chapskate, could have bought himself a 198...hahahaha
I couldn't agree more
The PAM 190 is my fav pam of all time. Plus it has a Jaeger LeCoultre movement. So, design + horological credibility. Wish they made those again...
Mr. Bond... how comes that you let your weapon empty, without any round left?...
... Lol!! :))) Great shot Sergio! Thank you! Enjoy your Pam 190!! With cordial regards, Abel.
I use my 197 very..VERY seldom :-)
it was and "impulse" purchase and the pink gold doesn't go down well with me, anymore. I should have bought a 190/198 instead :-) Ciaooooooo
I well understand Sergio! Gold watches somewhat restrict...
... their use, specially if you live in a Country like mine, Argentina. Anyway, they make for an awesome impresive appearance on the wrist. May be steel, titanium, and even white gold make for a more "wearable" for daily use and enjoyment. An outstanding ...
I miss it so much...
...one of the finest watches I've ever owned. Unfortunately the sad life of a collector is full of whatches that you start missing as soon as they have gone...the 190 is one of my regrets, and I miss it even more now that I realized that I had something i...
It's never too late to buy the PAM190 again!
Many collectors have re-acquired watches they've sold :) Some of the fanatics here have even bought the same watch 3 times! Cheers, Anthony
Completely agree with you Anthony! Never too late to buy again a 190!...
... Mine is a keeper, but I can understand to those who buy a watch that they let go before. Even if they buy it again three times! Lol! That s the world of collectors! Cordial regards, Abel.
RIP Sir Sean Connery [nt]
I wanted to Bring back our fond memories of actor Sean Connery... while his character as James Bond is often affiliated with Omega and Rolex, the actor actually wore a Panerai 190 on his own time 😀
One knows it's coming.....
...that it's going to happen and when it does, the sense of loss never fails to stun you. I've lived most of my life with Bond/Connery in it and I, like a lot of people out there, still think he was the best Bond of them all. R.I.P. Bond.....James Bond-Co...
I share same feelings here my dear Sergio!! I viewed my first Bond film in around 1964/65 as a young 15 years old lad. I admired Connery not only as Bond, the best Bond for me...
... and as an actor of many other great films. Rest in Peace Sir Connery! You´ll be missed! Abel
