Weight & power reserve
I like a lot Pam and reading on this forum I understood that a 44 mm match with my 6.8 wrist.
Now the question is how heavy is PAM 00005 because I'm afraid to be unconfortable, and the power reserve is realy 56 hours? |

plus or minus, yes you get close to the full 56 hours.
Wind them everyother day & you are good to go. The straps makes all the difference in comfort. IMO thicker = more comfort, plus you can get a custom strap with the holes exactly where you like them.

Strap = super comfy over a bracelet. Power reserve is correct. If you are used to bracelets, this thing will seem like a feather.

Well, a good alternative to the 0005 would be a 177, or a older discontiued 118.
With both the 177 and 118, you get a Titanium Case, which will be lighter and also IMHO wears more comfortable in hot weather. |

Not too much on the weight. The autos are thicker however, so yeah, I guess they'll be heavier, but more top heavy as opposed to the actual weight.

The auto's will be thicker and sit higher, making them feel heavier, but with a proper fitting strap, it shouldn't matter.
