Back in the fold

Been away for a while and Pam-less for a few months. I missed having my Pam, so I'm back with something different, yet familiar, the PAM 328. It's just like my old 312 but now I have a bracelet option Luckily, I still had a few of my favorite straps lying around, but I still need to add a few more. Three aint enough! Here's my pics - and special thanks to DavidSW!

nice! is the bracelet easy to take off? Is it just like taking off a strap?
Nice to have that option!
Congratulations and wear it in good health!

The bracelet comes right off with the same easy release for the strap versions.

Yes and thanks! It is easy to take off, and has the width I like. It looks like a nice, tough watch with the bracelet. Putting it back on takes a little getting used to because it has these two extra links (to fill in the gap from the bracelet to the head). Sort of like threading a needle, but it's not that difficult. It's worth the effort though, unless you're changing the bracelet every day. I will probably wear the bracelet for dress up and in the summer, since it will probably feel better than leather on a hot day. Right now I have a nice vintage strap on and loving it!

PS - I'll post pictures of the back of it later so you can see. It's the same easy strap change mechanism all the 1950s cases have.
