Hi All,

Just got a PAM 422 and I m really loving it.

Would like to get a 47mm Radiomir as well.

Try the 323 at AD and it feels and looks awesome.

However, people ve been saying " less is more " for PAM and the price on the 323 is out of my budget.

Love the 232 but it is hard to get.

Right now down to 504, 424, 425 and 514.

Which one should i go for?

is there any new coming model on 47mm Radiomir which costs under 10K?

Thanks for you advice and information.

Cheers :)

simple answer is hold out for the 232.

if cali, 249 over 448 (i just can't deal with the "vintage" and "california" engravings on the 448, plus, the 448 is thicker).

as for newer models, note that with the 424, the original date version has been replaced very recently with a non-date 424. for the SLC, i like the 425's gold coloring over the 449, but, then, i'm not a "DNA purist".

re: the 514, the radiomir 1940s case is nice, but, i'm not a fan of the 514's faux patina. therefore, i prefer the 532 over the 514 for 47mm 1940s, since i think the faux patina of the 532 looks okay with the DLC and asso strap.

re: 504, it has a good design and the composite is a nice brown, but, OP has discontinued once again its composites. makes you wonder if OP ever got their composites right or not.

232 is not that hard to get. If you need help from buying on the forums, ask here.

Perfect shade of brown on that dial and wears small for its 47mm size. (thin)

514 is the one

I vote for the 232 for all the same reasons as above.

504 is my first and only PAM. I really like it and recommend it if you want something a bit different than the traditional steel radiomir case.

Or if date needed go 505

TswaneNguni · 19 July 2014, 04:46 AM
