hello you all, what Pam do you like more and why?, i have to buy a luminor base but i can't decide whiche one...

snog · 30 January 2011, 08:24 AM

if you are sure you don't want the second hand, then I would say the 112,it has the display back and a simple face,some like the logo,less is more for me on a Pam.

mfer · 30 January 2011, 08:36 AM

000 for me. I like painted dials on luminors for some reason.

hmm too bad they took the painted dials out of the pam112. the sandwich doesnt look to historic for me.

johnswatch · 31 January 2011, 01:46 PM

Too easy....

112 all the way.

bcacncnc · 31 January 2011, 02:05 PM

I like both...and it depends what else you plan to include in your PAM collection (eventually). You might want to get the zero for the painted dial and later on include a sandwich dial in your mix.

You could do a E, F or G 112. Then you get a painted dial and a display back.

no logo however.

TopNotchChach · 31 January 2011, 03:11 PM

^hmmm. good to know. So serials that start with E, F, G still have the painted dials? How come the newer serial numbers cost more?

Speed · 31 January 2011, 03:14 PM

Newer watch IMO, Chach... Furthermore, many prefer sandwich dials.

I know I do!

TopNotchChach · 31 January 2011, 03:28 PM

^i really like the sandwich dial too, speed! 112, YAH!

superb · 31 January 2011, 11:22 PM

I walked into Panerai reseller store checking out the Pam 111 because i wanted a display caseback. Compared a pam 0, pam 5, pam 112 and pam 111. I don't think i will ever want a pam 111 or pam 112. Something about that logo makes Panerai an amazing watch. I even compared those logos with a Pam 312 and still prefers the logo. If i want a display caseback, i would go for a 372.

esm · 31 January 2011, 11:29 PM

its the "sausage" for me

marcinthemiddle · 31 January 2011, 11:31 PM

Hmm...112 for me- I love the exhibition back and logo-less sandwich dial.

drtooth73 · 31 January 2011, 11:42 PM

Lookswise: 112.
Better value (at least on P.com) : 000

akira23 · 1 February 2011, 12:25 AM

I like the sandwich dial as well! 112 all the way!

I'm thinking about getting one as well and if you have the opportunity to see them both in person, definitely do it. They both have clean, simple dials, but I thought the 112 looked better in person. The sandwich dial is awesome and it has more of a "historic" look in my opinion. The display caseback is a nice feature as well.

However... it seems like you cannot go wrong with either one. Both are great!

Exactly.

Correct me if im wrong, the original panerais didnt have that logo.

modgoldwing51 · 1 February 2011, 02:00 AM

I love the Pam 001 the best for me, but if you really want something different, how about a totally custom hand painted dial? I think it just awesome and a one of a kind!

Not too sure about the logo on the original Panerai watches.

Then again, there were Rolex movement inside the original Panerai watches..... So the ETA and P movement aren't "that" original

TopNotchChach · 1 February 2011, 03:05 AM

^ hahah true!

That really is a painted dial! hahahahahha. not my cup of tea.

tuisquash · 1 February 2011, 07:43 AM

112 is my favorite pam.

I know you love anything Exhibition Marky!!!

dukerules · 1 February 2011, 11:05 AM

I like them both. That said the 000 wins for me. Logo, fewer made, and lower price win out for me.

stockae92 · 1 February 2011, 11:43 AM

if its your only PAM, go with 112

otherwise, 000 then get something else for the sandwich dial :)

paulshih · 3 February 2011, 01:14 AM

i'd say the 000 (maybe since i'm a bit biased!) the painted dial and logo give it a more vintage feel IMO. i like the sandwich dial on the more contemporary models such as the 312 (again, i'm biased there too!). go with what love more and you can't go wrong with that!

miner · 5 February 2011, 01:43 AM

112
Only cos I have one...

jvo300 · 5 February 2011, 03:16 AM

Zero!

tech_controller · 5 February 2011, 12:42 PM

I had a painted 112 and really liked it a lot...but always preferred the logo dial on this particular iteration...go with the 000....you won't be disappointed.

PGREENBERG · 11 February 2011, 03:05 PM

112 is a great watch. But then again there is not a bad one
