Slow but deliberate
If you paln any strap changes on the radiomir always put some clear scotch tape over the screws then just puncture just above the screw. This will help avoid any undue scratches. But don't baby it too much it should work like your Rolex. As soon as you give it a sport look with vintage strap you are good to go. What a chic night out a nice black or brown croc strap will do the trick.
I am sure we will be polluting your mind at every occasion and I am sure you will enjoy it.
Some food for thought below.

Newbie...
Hmmm what can i say.. My first encounter with Panerai was about 6 years ago, when i strapped on a PAM 111, on the wrist. Huge fella, imposing, nice light orange brown strap, but that did not belong to me. It was a friend's. Second encounter was a colleagu...
Great decision and choice, KCKL.
A 47 mm Rad or Luminor may well have been to large for your wrist, while this 210 seems to perfectly sit on your wrist. Clean and sober design, with a reliable movement inside, and relatively affordable, what is more to ask for? Bravo! Best, Nicolas.
Thx Nico. This has been an awesome PAM...
Yes, affordability is always a factor whether we like it or not. You are right, 47mm will be a tad too large for my wrist. Awesome watch. Cheers.
You can't go wrong when sticking to the roots, Félicitations
Many thanks for sharing your introduction.
Congratulations is all I have to say.
Great choice, one of these days I am going to,have to get myself a Radomir. I like the nice and simple design. Best regards, George
Thx George, i cant help myself to continuously looking at the dial..
Pls get one and you will definitely love it. Pure, simple, like Poy mentioned, sticking to the roots, not 100% but very close. Thx
Thanks,
all is well and normal. I'm also approaching my 1,000th post but it goes slowly. Either I have nothing to say or it's not polite to say what I would like to say... Anyhow, that's not a new problem in my life. Best, Kari
Good choice.....
personally, I've always been a staunch supporter of the principle....keep it simple... Enjoy..... Cheers - Sergio
Excellent choice, and congrats!
Do wear it in the best of health, the 210 is always a winner i always say. Ciao Stephen
Thanks Stephen cant help but to admire your quite massive
PAM collection. Always a joy to read your posts and pics of course. Cheers.
Why, thank you very much too!
I just have a humble one, and it is always never too late to start as you have. Thanks and enjoy! Ciao Stephen
big congrats!

Huge congrats...simple elegance..
and a great choice.. love the write up..congrats on your 1000 and welcome to Panerai!
This new journey is just beginning
From many sides. One will be the discover of everything Panerai starting with straps which is an adventure in itself. The watch takes on a new personality with every strap "shoes" change. Then the next infection is you start to want another and so on. But...
Thx Bill, you are right, i am thinking now to get a nice Panerai coffee table book..
And next probably the straps, the correct screwdriver as PAM 210 not provided for unlike the Luminor with extra strap, scary thought for this PAM journey as the more you learn, the more infectious the PAM becomes, and you will probably get one after anoth...

you read my mind Bill, i was thinking of a brown strap..
..thanks for giving me the wallpaper for my laptop hey, thanks for the advice, i have to be careful with the shiny case which is easily susceptible to noticeable scratch.. appreciate it. Please dont poison me too early and too fast. Be gentle with me plea...
Congratlations
Great choice. I like the simple uncomplicated Panerais the best.Enjoy. cheers,dreamer
yes, you have a good memory
which I am lucky to have.I recently sold my 196 and 213 to raise funds for 372. Enjoy yours. cheers,dreamer
I like your decision, the 372, imo, a cross breed between..
the Radiomir and Luminor in case design and the dial which one will simply fall in love with easily. Good decision. The engraved "LUMINOR PANERAI" below 12 is just fantastic looking. a 1950 without it appearing on the dial. Excellent choice, dreamer, do s...
That's a great first Panerai!
It's a very nice base model which could be appreciated for a long time! I personally love that piece , very nice and clean I hope this is only the beginning of a long journey.. It's so much fun in here... Looking forward to hear more from you Best, Sam,
I must thank you Sam for the lovely rare and hard to find pieces you always..
..managed to get your hands on! and shared with everyone. Great PAMs you have..
You're most welcomed...
It's actually my pleasure to do it, as it is my passion... I'm glad you enjoyed it and bought your first PAM... I hope this is only a start of your journey.. Best, Sam
re: Newbie
Hello KCKL! Congrats on the 210 and big props for joining the 1K+ posts! Wear it in the best of health my friend! -MW
I was shy to post here without having one on the wrist ;) and
what better way to do it through 1k post and sort of give thanks to all the positive influence and experience shared from this OP forum and the very educated and learned PAM collectors / experts here. Thx Ming.
congrats my friend....
sandwich dial, radiomir....both are my fav Panerai features. you've been Ristied!! best, Horo
Thx Horo I realised just how infectious the feel
of a PAM is on the wrist my oh my, the sandwich plus Radiomir plus balanced dial plus the almost perfectly designed numbers 3 6 9 12 which I am starting to suspect Rolex Exp and Panerai both shared design except the Exp never printed the 12 there LOL... I...
fortunately i took a immunity shot that last till next SIHH!!
congrats again. the UK trip was very productive in a nutshell. managed to work out from my London office, visit a factory, attend a da Vinci exhibition, visit salonQP and also had a blast of a time with fellow Purists over lunch, plus a quickie shopping s...
:) I don't think u need immunity if something catches your fancy..
I be down in SG in Dec if you are around we can have coffee or if u ever in KL do PM me or Tyler we can catch up together here lunch dinner or drinks.
Congratulations, now the infamous question: What'll be your next PAM?
The poison has reach the vein and there no stopping it now. Fabulous 1st PAM something I have given a lot of thought as well. Regards Tyler
Thx Tyler where have u been?
Thinking of a Luminor 112 to add variety and feel the different case design and 300m wr or a PAM 232 if I can find one I know the extra 2mm may be overkill but I decided to increase body mass to enlarge my wrist size. I am more inclined towards the Radiom...
