So ya got a thing for big thick watches....I gotta buddy that says if it's less then 47mm he cant wear it. 44mm looks small on his wrist. I think a panerai and rolex are a great combo. Myself I'm still looking for a Pam-292J....just taking awhile to search for it.

Concerning big watches... Here is my Bell & Ross WW1-92 Military.

It's 45mm but I can only wear it because it's not thick.

don't like either of those watches really but there you go. my perfect duo would have to suit any occasion and so would look something like this:

Not a bad pair to choose. For me a PAM burns bright at first but fizzles soon after.

My duo would be a Rolex 116600 and a Patek 5227G Calatrava. Don't have the Patek as my preference is for 5 other Rolex instead...I like variety.

Probably not many, however, I restricted myself to only choose from watches I currently own or have owned. And IMO you have to have a certain wrist size to wear these two watches IMO, so relatively many will probably disagree with me, and that is fine :)

My "perfect duo" will undoubtly change as years pass by ;)

I have to disagree.

The perfect 2 watch Rolex collection would be a GMT or Sub paired with an Explorer or DateJust.

An excellent pair of dive watches indeed - and plenty of strap fun to be had with the PAM - nice to see some variation

Panerai and Rolex are a natural pairing, especially given their shared history. Something I consistently note over on P.com is how much Rolex appreciation there is - and certainly no bashing
