Of the 2, I don't think you can buy either at a Panerai Boutique
The PAM520 is a new watch from SIHH 2014, so I don't think they've made their way to the stores yet. But should be soon IMO.
And the PAM246 was released several years ago, so I doubt there are any left there since, if I remember correctly, it was a limited edition of 300 or 500 pieces. You can probably find one if you search on google though. Retail was approximately $16k. You can try calling the Panerai Boutiques to see if they happen to still have one left. The PAM246 was never a "hot" piece, so maybe there's still a chance to get one through them.

Time for a change
Gents, I currently have a PAM 88 which I have had for around 3 years and use it as my every day watch. Still get many admiring glances from both watch aficionados and not. Have decided to update and have been looking at chronographs. The obvious is the ro...
Have you considered the new Panerai chronographs from SIHH 2014?
Maybe this time try a Panerai Radiomir instead of a Luminor this time to mix it up? For example, you may want to take a look at the PAM520 Chronograph: There's a white dialed version PAM518, but that is in platinum so it won't be in your targeted budget....
I would have said the Mare Nostrum; but the Pre V one, the 301/ A.
42 mm of pure pleasure. But not in the current production. The Pam 300 is top gorgeous, but waaay too big! Best, Nicolas.
Food for thought
Thanks for the advice. Had never really thought of a radiomar before - will need to have a look. Anthony of the two you suggested, what sort of budget and availability via a boutique?

I'm Late to the Party, but...
I second the pre-Vendome Mare Nostrum. In Navy speak, it was a "plank owner" of the consumer Panerai brand. Having been there at the launch in '93, it didn't survive long into the Richemont era, but what a cool looking piece it was. Assuming you're not pl...
