PAM 000 Pics Please!!

Hi all. First time posting here.

I've always loved the PAM 000 from a distance. Ive always loved the ability to change the bands and really match to what youre wearing.. I am interested in maybe purchasing one soon. But I need some help...

Please post your pics and help me decide!

It's a great watch. I DLC coated mine as I wanted the look of a 009 without the cost.

2) Send to Jack@IWW
3) Enjoy!

000 is a classic and it holds its value very well... GREAT choice as a first Panerai.

Also DLC mined but have had TONS of regular SS ones as well.

You'll have to find a used one at a good price. DLC-ing it a great idea.

Do it!!!
The Zero is pretty much cult status with Panerai.
Sorry I don't have pics though, to help with the push..

Love it but moving it to make room for other recent purchase. It'll be back one day... Do it!

Just be careful... OP is likely to move to all in-house near term so these will get harder to find.

One of the reasons I've been thinking about re-acquiring...although the 390 also seems to be calling to me.

I love my 000. That's my go-to watch if I'm going to be out of the office doing "field" work. The scars and bruises give it character.

It's very durable. As long as you're not abusing the watch, it'll never come off.

I had mine done by Jack@IWW for about $600 several years ago. I imagine it's a little more nowadays. I believe Dalton@ABC can do it also.
