The Dearly Departed: Watches I no Longer Own, & Why

Maybe there are a few WPS participants out there who have never sold or traded away a watch, but if you’re like me, chances are there were a few dearly departed members of your collection that you let go of for one reason or another. In light of a couple

Not at all John...

... on the contrary your directness and clairty was very helpful! I still love the look of the 504, but I want to use my watches and we have three sons so hopefully they'll want to wear them some day. They will have to accept some patina, but a cracking c

I like the look of the 504 a lot....

Advice on PAM 504 vs PAM 232

Hi everyone, New to the forum, but not new to Panerai. My first - and only - is a PAM22B that I acquired before Panerai went through the rise and drop in the hype cycle. To this day the 22 remains a favorite and I have started to consider adding a Radiomi

New shoes for the 504...
