Thanks! Being a limited edition I decided to take the plunge as this was likely the only one my dealer was going to get

PAM 995 - Welcoming my first PAM!

Huge congratulations! Excellent choice. For sure it will be the first of a well, let's hope not too long series. ;) Aaah, the fabric strap is awesome!

thank you Nicolas. I cant believe how much of vintage feel the case shape brings without the crown guard in this case

It is a marvel. And let's not forget the delicious micro rotor!

Oh yes, forgot to take a picture of the back

Tsssssss. That will give you the opportunity to take other pics. ;)

Yes sir! :-)

:) Allez, au travail!

Hold on need to finish my martini first

LOL! Ok, ok!

Voila

A really cool feature.

The finish is very different but this layout reminds me a bit of the Bulvari Octopus movement - maybe its just the fact they both have a micro rotor

Congratulations 🥳 ...

Yes thank you captain. Yes I think I will enjoy the straps variety! All 3 are nice on that reference...

Congratulations!

Thank you for your kind words Arronax, you sum it up pretty well

Beautiful version: I like this particular, mat green dial! Please, more pictures ;-)

I just added a picture with the rubber strap from the web - looks nice doesn't it?

Huge congratulations my friend, definitely a beauty and One that I would love to own

Thanks Tony! This means a lot coming given the already amazing depth of your collection!

There is a Panerai boutique at Yorkdale in Toronto 👍

I keep forgetting about that!

It was the 1314 and 995 and the 1314 won for now but I expect to get a 995 soon! The 1314 won because it was the very first 1/1000

1/1000! That is just too cool indeed. Good luck for the hunt of the 995!

Congrats to your first Pam dear Chronometer...

Thank you SF. And yes the strap variety should make it fun indeed with each one bringing a different style

Excellent! Interesting strap alternatives as well. Looking forward to pics (nt)

Thanks Echi...more pictures coming soon promise :-)! The “beige” fabric strap also seem to be made for this limited edition

That was fast ;-) It's looking good. Congratulations

Yes it was...normally i was not planning to make the move so quickly. But once i decided the 995 would be the way to go, i wanted to snatch the unit in just received such that i would not miss the opportunity

Too much thinking and stress is a bad recipee. I am happy to read how happy you are 👍🏻🍻

Thanks! No regrets!

That green dial is very dapper, combined with a brown strap even more.

Thank you! Glad i took the plunge

Huge congratulations to this awesome and beautiful Panerai. The pam995 has everything was a panerai and a stunning watch needs. Enjoy it a lot .

Thank you Ahoi for the kind words!

It's a beauty and with that fabric strap must be top!

Thanks aris. Enjoying the leather strap for now but can’t wait to try the fabric on it!
