Question/Help Pam514
Need to get my fellow forum members thoughts on the Pam514.
I love the look of the watch and it fits my wrist nicely. Just wanted to know other peoples thoughts on this watch... Are their other models I should considere at this price point that would be a better choice? I currently have a Pam380 and love it but would like a in house movement. |

514 is a really solid choice. hammer from p.com (assuming you know who he is) fairly recently termed it the "best bang for your buck" PAM.
![]() as for other options, as you know, there are tons of options. first decide which case you want (radiomir, 1940s radiomir, 1950s luminor, bettarini luminor, 372-style luminor) and go from there. |

I keep coming back to the Radiomir style and really love the 1940's case, that is what I want to keep to.
Thanks for the input :) |

in that case, you could also look at the 512, which will be smaller (42mm), thinner and have the 12/3/9 on the dial (in other words, no date).

or the 572, which is a new release and pretty sweet at 45mm and a micro-rotor automatic movement, but, it is priced a bit more than either the 514 or 512.

last, but, not least, of the SS 1940s radiomirs is the new 587, which will be priced a bit over the 514 and 512, too, and will be very, very hard to get.

as the 514 is a bit thinner, it will wear smaller than the 47mm it is. Its all subjective, as long as you like it.
I have a 190 and I have a 6.5" wrist. However, often I do find it a bit big. good luck in your decision
