I like this better than the 127 🫣

As for "better than the 127," we'll have to see what the Purists have to say. I'm partial to the PAM217 myself.

The 217 a Big Yes! Pure

I'm surprised that gets a pass with the less-is-more Panerai fans. "Pure" is one of the reasons the 217 is on the short list for next watch.

Your post made me smile – and also made me dive back into the archives. As far I have found out just two Panerai models actually seem to show “1950” on the dial: the PAM 127 and the PAM 375. The 217 has the same beautiful case, but no “1950” text. So… the...  

I just love that Panerai did something completely irrational here – and stuck with it for exactly two watches. There is absolutely no logic and no consistency. It’s like Panerai whispered “1950” twice… and then never again. That’s the kind of detail I lov...

I never really follow mainstream taste when it comes to watches. Or at least I’m absolutely convinced I don’t… 🙏 Maybe my self-image and reality are … apart in this case. But if I may present one piece of evidence in my defense – your honors 😉 – it’s the ...  

The blue dial is quite pretty! And the Luminor case really suits complications--lots of room for everything to "breathe." How does the equation of time function work? Does it rely on the date? My nonconformist PAM loves are the 1680 and 577. And I'm compo... 

Yes, the Equation of Time (EOT) function is indeed linked to the date. It shows the difference between “true solar time” (based on the actual position of the sun) and “mean solar time” (our standard 24-hour day). Because this difference changes throughout... 

Worn, but in very good condition. I have to think about it.

Strap it on and share a pic!
