My one and only PAM...
...317. It is also one of the most worn watches in my collection.
I generally don't care how the other Panerai collectors think, and am not into straps or Pre-V PAMs either. If you like the 311, go for it. I went with the 317 cause I wanted a scratch resistant sport watch. I just love the dial.

PAM Monopulsante Chronograph Series PAM275, PAM311, PAM317
So I was at a Panerai Boutique to try on the PAM233 which I am considering as my first PAM because it is considered versatile. I got a bunch of exotic straps already, stingray, super scaly croc, kangaroo, "football" pigskin, and I am so excited to make th...
Wear one and find out for yourself!
Wear a Royal Oak Offshore and find out for yourself! They're fun watches with serious internals.
I think Panerai watches evoke pretty strong opinions
The style of the watches is something people love or really don't like. Panerai certainly has a large following, so I am not sure why you think people in your stated demographic are not buying Panerai pieces. As far as I am concerned, I don't like the sty...
PAM Monopulsante Chronograph Series PAM275, PAM311, PAM317
I own PAM411 and love it! It has nice, clean dial, perfect size, and more importantly perfect weight! Given that you can get a pretty good price on this model it makes it a very attractive investment, but you should never buy any watch as an investment - ...
I think the reason why the PAM311 monopusher isn't a popular model w/ Panerai fans
because it has a more "busy" dial which Panerai fans seem to dislike. A vast majority prefer a non-cluttered and simple dial such as the PAM372. The PAM311 is a great Panerai but for me, I think the look of the monopusher activator sort of ruins the simpl...

Actually I owned both 311 and 317
I think they are both practical watches; I acquired the 311 and 317 came later. As frequent traveller, I travel to different timezone, and hence the GMT, and the long power reserve really come handy. I do agree with Anthony that the dial is busy, and some...
Not sure if it's fair to say
PAM311 is not popular. I personally know of at least 5 owners and it's certainly not an UNPOPULAR watch by any stretch of measures if I apply the similar analysis within my limited sampling space on other Panerai models. It's true that the dial might be a...
311 will be a classic
I have also wondered why the 311 is not popular. But to me the 275, 311, and 317 represent a crucial turning point for Panerai. To my knowledge, there were no other PAMs before these that offered so much at that price point. These pieces possess plenty of...
