Last year I bought two Pam's 312 & 233.........
As I believed that they would make great daily beaters, what with the huge variety of straps.
But I have to admit, that I soon fell out of love with them and ended up selling them both.
I strongly believe that you get more for your money with a Rolex.
Advice: Pam243 or Rolex 16600?
Dear purists and friends, My next acquisition is in sight and would very much appreciate your thoughts on the following pieces: - pam 243, tritium dial (apparently being discontinued, can somebody confirm this?) - rolex 16600, tritium dial Let me put the ...
Well

I would not say that pams are fashion accessories but I will not doubt get bored of them. I originally was after a 02 but it is a little out of budget at the moment... Thank you J for your advice! I'm happy to be talking about watches on such a sad day fo...

Sea Dweller for sure. Sea Dweller is the best modern dive watch, IMHO. It's only 40 mm diameter,16 mm thick and has 1220 m WR. SD is well proportioned and versatile, you can wear SD everywhere. The dial is very legible. Bezel turns smoothly. Case back is ...
Very convincing arguments
Thank you for the great suggestions and comments. It makes sense to choose the sd.
Vintage Rolex is always good but something like this...
From Panerai is well within your budget. Hard choice. but reasonable... Bill Panerai PAM 390 raw Panerai PAM 390 Wrist Shots...
