Why PAM

OK, so I'm a newb... With PANerai as the name of the watch, where is everyone getting PAM?

I just followed the crowd. Bought my first Pam 2 years ago and saw a bunch of people refer to them as such, I just thought it was the 'cool thing' to do.

Also never thought I would get addicted to them. Up to 6 and I sold the Daydate for the newest one.

When I was getting into watches, I finally heard of Panerai, then thought people were missing the "N" when they referred to the watches as "PAM".

But then, I realized that the internet was not collectively making a mistake.

Still don't understand why they went with PAnerai Model rather than just PAN.

But I guess I'd rather own a PAM than a PAN...have enough of those in the kitchen, right?
