Holy Grail???
Dear fellow Purists : I am very pleased to share with you pictures of my PAM 249 and 232. I acquired the 249 in January 2008. Surprisingly, the 232 has proven to be elusive. After a hunt for nearly 2 years, I am now a proud owner of these 2 "Grail" watch ( by my standard). I spent much effort in selecting the strap : A light colour one to contrast with the black dial of the Cali. A dark brown strap to match the brown dial of the 232.
Based on the picture, and a la " Mr BluNotte", can you guys guess what my Ultimate Grail is?
Cheers and Thanks for looking.
Sam

I see someone is calling me!
1st of all, congrats on your 2 very beautiful radiomirs! They are always so sexy, so historically correct, plus the 249 naturally fits your screen name here very well! "A la me"? Let me see, the magazine photo is that of an angelus movement, and with your...
Your Riddle
Dear BluNotte : I was referring to your riddle on PAM 349 you posted a couple of weeks back and try to have some fun here !! Unlike yours which has many twists and set us guessing in all directions, mine is very simple; dont think beyond the picture. Mr A...
Ohhh
Gotcha on that Sam! The 203 is a great piece! Here's a toast to you getting yours soon! Ciao Stephen
2 of the nicest Vendome Watches, IMO.
Certainly the 2 nicest from the production of these 3 last years, indeed. The simpler, the nicer! Congrats. Best, Nicolas
a perfect couple
Being a Radiomir addicted I can only say what a great duo. I wish the California will be mine as well, sooner or later. cheers from Italy Ale
Beautiful Duo indeed!
IMO you can't have one without the other, too bad I no longer have mine Do you own any other Rads? Congrats & wear them in good health!
congrats...
Just joined the PAM party with the 312 and now I am eyeing a Rad...like the 232...love the 249...and 292 maybe more accessible congrats on a great pair
Congrats.Nice pair of LEs!
The 203 will be a major hurdle and may prove elusive. Why not settle for a Fiddy like I did. cheers fernando...
A perfect, if not THE perfect Trio
249 / 127, or 127 / 232, or for the greediest of us the 127/ 232/ 249, this could sum the Panerai roots! Better than this? 127 / 217 / 232/ 249. Even better? Pam 21 / 203... Man, I would be very happy with a Duo like the 249 127! Congrats, Fernando, I def...
This was a while back Nicolas.....
and these were what I could reasonable get hold of at the time.Nothing to touch what YOU have in your Pam collection! The pre Vs ,pre As etc. etc., the true Pam collectors' pieces. Have you given up on Panerai BTW? Best fernando
Well, Fernando, tough question
I had 10 Pre Vs, and some early Vendome, too. Now, I still have 4 Panerais. 2 Pre V, 2 Vendome. I think I will add 2 more Panerais, and Basta. A 47 mm ala 127 or a " Base " version if Panerai decides to realease it with a domed sapphire. And a Sub ala Bom...
See I was right...
you are still The MAN when it comes to Pams(also vintage divers,JLC and many others). I share your enthusiasm with the plain dial 127 and the 24 with smooth(shiny) bezel.You already have some amazing pieces! cheers fernando
