You Pam has a higher rating than your GMT II. I would throw on the OEM rubber and wear it in the water all summer.

Pams are made for water, your GMT was not, although it is rated for 300ft. I used to swim with my old GMT II's all the time, but I feel way better when I have a Panerai on my wrist with the OEM rubber for water activities.

I have a original Kodiak strap in the mail and I plan on using that for the pool/beach. I love the OEM rubber but they are a tad small for my wrist. Mario Paci makes the best straps for Panerai IMHO, and he has a full line of waterproof straps that look and wear fantstic.
