Pam 537

I have owned this watch for 6 weeks now and it has not come off my wrist since. That means that there are several watches in my safe that are being neglected! I'm new to Panerai. I always thought they were just too big for my 7 in wrist until I saw their 42mm models. My first choice was a 682 submersible
I was in Boston and went to Tourneau. The 682 42mm was not available. Instead they showed me the 537 and the deal was sealed in 2 minutes. Now I have my sights set on either a 510 or 560. Help me decide !!

Thanks, The strap hunt begins!

Very nice, congrats on the 537!

Since you have a Luminor with the 537, why not go back to your first choice, the 682? The submersible style will give you more diversity.

If you have your heart set on a 510 or 560, consider instead a 564 or 562, which are the equivalents but in titanium with brown dials. The 564 is a personal favorite from the "new" Luminors, but the 562 would give your collection a Base (2 hands), which will further differentiate from your 537.

Good luck with your choice! Exciting times.

Now I have my eyes on a 531. I know its another GMT but it has the same rating as the 682 but more versatile for my life style. I already own a 1/2 dozen rolex dive models

I’m loving the 682. I want to grab one next. I think the 1305 might be just a few mm too large for me.

I have the 560 and love it. Two years ago I sold my green sub, bought the 560 and never looked back.
