Very good thinking...
Essentially I was working on a 'theme' of following criteria:
Vendome Era
important manual wound movements with a reasonable exclusivity
No chronograph (I have way too many of them!)
Reasonable DNA in terms of design DNA
PAM203: Angelus for the historical significance
PAM198: JLC the 1st collaborationi w/ JLC and 1st 8 day PR
PAM201: 1st Panerai in house movement (boderline in terms of design DNA!)
PAM80: Important NOS movement & interesting complication (at least to me!)
PAM322: 1st collaboration w/ Minerva
So I'm sort of left with:
PAM21 could technically fit the bill but they ain't cheap!
PAM365 could represent the 1st foray into high complication but the dial is a tad too busy, which strays away a bit from the Design DNA front. Not to mention it's a tad rich for my blood! 
Anything else that you can think of?
one out of these three different models
- Ceramic 317 - Submersible whatever the model according to your choice with Tritium or Luminova -mare Nostrum 300 Jester I like your collection. ;-))) Congratulations Cheers, Patrickh
You bet!
-Ceramic 317: Check! -Submersible whatever the model according to your choice with Tritium or Luminova Check! But I wouldn't put the two pieces into this box/picture... -mare Nostrum 300 Still waiting for it and I do agree it would fit the 'theme' of this...
I should!!! You have really an IMPRESSIVE collection
I am very happy for you Jester. Quite sure that you will fall in love for the Pam 300. Will see in winter 2010 ;-))) Best regards, patrickh
Are you thinking of PAM 339...
just read through your post and have a guess..: ))) curious and very nice collection BTW HAGWE Eddy
While I'm indeed
eagerly awaiting the arrival of 339, the in-house 8 day PR movement has already been represented by the PAM201 shown here. So yes and no. I want a 339 but Not for this picture!
Easy!
A Mare Nostrum, or an Egiziano... With those 2, all the Panerai Lines would be covered! Best, Nicolas
A Luminor or Submersible
You have many nice Radiomirs, Another Luminor or sub would fit nicely into your collection.
Tx and I own a few Luminor/submsersible
But they don't quite fit the 'theme' of here.
A 44mm regular Luminor (not a 1950 Luminor) and a black Panerai
so PVD or Ceramic. Also, maybe a Submersible too? Cheers, Anthony
snap!
My first iphone picture upload, so it comes with the standard apologies. I was motivated to post by the similarities of the collection. Best Christian...
thank you
Thanks for the compliment! Thanks too for your passion and inspiration to this forum. Christian
Let me clarify...
I'm actually 'thinking' about the piece which would suit the 'theme' for this box. I do have a few more Panerai and already owned the pieces as some of you kindly suggested...
Then the only other piece that pops out in my head is the PAM365 Equation of Time
Now that's something that won't have any overlap and will be unique in your collection Cheers, Anthony This message has been edited by Jester on 2010-06-20 09:46:10 This message has been edited by AnthonyTsai on 2010-06-20 10:05:45...
The Equation of Time
has certainly crossed my mind but it wouldn't be immediately feasible for obvious reasons! Moreover, I'm still not very convinced that the Luminor is the right case for this complication.
What about a PAM29?
It'll fit in with a regular Luminor 44mm and it has a unique look so there won't be overlap with dial design. I'm getting one of these and am waiting everyday for my phone call. Cheers, Anthony This message has been edited by AnthonyTsai on 2010-06-20 10:...
I do have the 232 and
the 233 would be a duplicate in terms of complication for my 201 here... This message has been edited by Jester on 2010-06-25 05:48:48...
Ahh.. It's really tough Jester.
It seems that you have it all.. I really envy your collection SamRotandi
Would a PreA 009 suit your fancy Jester?
I think it would be a fantastic addition to your collection- add a little bit of old flavor to your awesome line up of modern day Pams... give you a PVD piece and fat tritium numbers... man... that'd be the cherry on top...=)
Indeed I lust after that.
That is indeed the only Vendome Era PVD piece that I'm missing in my collection so it's definitely on my Radar. However, again it would not fit this box/theme.
Jester, wonderful collection, don't think you need another piece
It's a wonderful collection... but I'd say... a grand complication piece... ur iPHONE so you can sync all of these watches...
Jester, I didn't know that there were OTHER boxes and themes you have... =)))
I'd love to see your T dial box!!=)) Ok, back on the subject... so if this is some kind of puzzle... Hmmm... Your box from left to right seems to go left to right- 3 cardinal numbers, then 4 cardinal numbers, and 2 cardinal numbers... And they are all Ven...
Not meant to be a puzzle
although it's increasingly looking like one. I'm genuinely thinking about that missing piece....
I don't think anything is missing...
I don't think anything is missing from the case. Your collection is certainly extensive and covers a wide variety of possibilities. But I'd throw in some sort of Luminor-cased Panerai just for good measure...
So far you have 5 watches with 5 different movement makers...you need a 6th
You have so far in that box: Angelus (PAM203) JLC (PAM198) Panerai in-house (PAM201) Chezard (PAM 80) Minerva (PAM322) So...I would suggest either: PAM21 - rolex movement (don't think you have that one yet!) PAM78 (seconds counter) - omega movement or, th...

How's about a piece with the Lemania movement- Pam 192?
Tantalum is always an interesting metal...=)
That's indeed
a very interesting piece which I have been contemplating... but I'll leave out the chronograph for this occasion.
Never too many to own
submersible if referring to the case model. case material will say maybe a PVD or Tantalum. all based on Vendome model and if dated back to PreV, then...
There is one that fits between...
... your 201 and 322! Both reference number wise and sizewise, It has a movement based on a Piaget movement. I am thinking of the watch I have ordered and that I am waiting for: the Pam338 of course! I am a newbie in Panerai world but what the hell, I wan...
Hmmm, you actually have a very good point...
I shall look into this. Tx for the suggestion!
Now that's a very interesting proposition...
But I'm still trying to 'fit' something into the box...
