Officine Panerai

I was able to visit my local AD today and they had three Panerai that I had been considering; a PAM 111 and a PAM 352. It was nice to be able to try them on in the flesh in a comfortable and welcoming environment. The WIS in me was drawn to the exclusivit...

And thanks for sharing your purchasing dilemna and story with us from beginning to end! Cheers, Anthony

That was my first PAM. You're going to enjoy that for many years to come. Now go get yourself a bunch of straps for it.

I believe the watch came with a Calf Gold Cashmere Treatment or Semimat strap (Does anyone know which for my reference?) and a black rubber strap. The OP website shows about 2 dozen options for a 44 mm Luminor case. Other than a rubber strap what do folks...

A great choice. Congratulations on tour new Panerai. Best regards, George

Congratulations! 111 is surely a great start for Pam lovers. Thanks to your pics that remind me of my first unforgettable beauty Pam, a J series 111. I will be here, hunger, waiting for more pics.

Enjoy... Simple, yet iconic dial in a unique case... Polished case with brushed crown protector... Redesigned bridges and swan neck regulator......  

of a simply sweet PAM.

I am going through the same dilemma. I love the 359 but the 1950's case just does not seem to fit me right. It's a little big and just doesnt lie right. The "regular" luminor case fits me great so I am strongly considering the Pam 00000. Have alway loved ...

Agree 100 percent. So important to try on and spend time with them before purchasing. What I'm realizing is that no matter how much you like a piece if it does not fit right you will end up not putting it on. So while I will spend more time with the 1950 ... 

and been wearing the 416/413 regular luminor case and I have to say, the P9000 movement 1950 cases does not fit me well... 233/375 1950 case will be better...

The 111 is a classic piece. Now just be aware of the strap buying bug, it can be nearly as costly as buying your Pam in the first place!! LOL

congrats! and it's a pleasure to aid in the process. big welcome to another pam owner it won't end here....

A great choice for a first panerai... Enjoy and wear it in best health! Best, Sam

And wear in good health. Best, Horo
