You mentioned high end patek and Lange collectors folding into PAM
But truth is amongst the collectors, esp younger ones, already do collect both "spectrum" of these watches. Blunotte is an example. To to be seriously considered by hard core patek/Lange types, who focus on finishing and construction, PAM is currently irrelevant. It may actually be Bonatti's preference that these group of "sophisticated" collectors not focus on PAM, and diluting it's image amongst hardcore Paneristi/Pampurists groups.
In any case, should PAM wanna move up the value chain, for lack of a better phrase...stop relying on sister Richemont companies to produce and finish movements. Do it themselves, and do a good job. If Montblanc can do a Minerva and come up with Villeret series...PAM can too?

Nice report!
Great pictures of the rootbeer brown dial, really captures the metallic sheen which makes the watch look more formal in my opinion as opposed to a matte surface dial. How does the red gold compare to pink gold?
I have to have them side by side to know the difference
Many brands use the label "red" gold and some "pink" gold when they are in actuality the same color, but in this case I'm not sure if they are the same. I'd have to have a Panerai "pink" and "red" case side-by-side to see if there's a difference. My gut f...
