Arie - Mr Orange

Well....
when I bought my PAM359 (new from AD) there was a loose screw lying in the balance wheel after a few weeks of ownership.
When I bought my PAM379 (new from grey dealer) there was a loose screw behind the glass after 2 days....
So to answer your question: I kinda do ;-)
A modest Panerai....
Is there such a thing? Apparantly there is. Just look at the dimensions of the PAM 574 next to the 40 mm ALS 1815. Who would have guessed? On the wrist however it is a totally different ball game. The PAM shows much much larger on the wrist than the 1815....
I find the strap to be part of the appeal :)
The kermit green makes it hard to be neutral on this one. And the more modest size makes it more universal in terms of wrists it will fit, even if the strap makes it less so otherwise
I don't think it is
the 1000 is the max. numbers they will put out in 1 year. (Panaristi: please correct me if i'm wrong)
Panerai has a millesime production, beside the limited editions.
It can be a millsesime of 500, 1000, 1200, 1500, 2000 and so on... per year. Best, Nicolas
Superb comparison
And indeed, they are almost the same size but then again the Panerai looks so much bigger on the wrist, with a nice presence. I\'m glad to see this post on your PAM574, I was hesitating on this model but you wear it beautifully and indeed ideal for the su...
tnx
It\'s a fun watch with this kind of strap, and having the possibility to turn it around in a dressy kind of watch is nice. The dimensions of the case make it an all rounder.
sizing
I'm also surprised the PAM wears so much larger than the ALS given the 2mm or 5% diameter difference. The small PAM still wears like a big watch, especially for asian wrists.
Guess
it really has to to with the dial design. Those big numbers also make it look much larger than it actually is. Looks \'big\' but wears small. When I wear it it never feels like a Panerai. But as a normal watch (if you get my drift).
yeh
ive got a pam 574 too, i was just setting the time and was thinking why on earth have a minute flyback too haha. still waiting on my green strap from the AD ive had two custom made from florence in the time its taken. Ive also noted its had quite poor tim...
Actually
Mine seems to be pretty accurate. But I haven\'t been paying close attention.
well
real world seems to be -10 seconds or worse especially if i wear it, although it seems to run better on the timing machine (-4). my rolex seems to run about +2 everyday always
Until now I'm just happy not seeing any loose screws behind the case back glass :-)
But I\'ve only got it for 2 weeks so let\'s wait and see..... (My expectations aren\'t high)

No need to check; if they don't run
It\'s obvious! Guessing/hoping I had really really bad luck. That\'s why I went for the third. 3 times a charm right?
