Pam 1313
And it’s here folks!! This thing is a beauty. General observations:
The blue dial is gorgeous and looks almost black indoors, then dances in the light. Even more different in sunlight vs artificial light (see pics). The rubber strap is a bit too bright, but nice and sporty The leather strap is amazing - deep, Royal Navy color (almost black) and fits well with the watch. Strap sizes have gotten bigger. I had a 312 and was on the second last hole. For this, I am on the last hole. I have a 6.5” wrist. Case size is perfect. It’s a good decrease from the older 1950 in the 312.

The blue rubber is too much blue, same for the alligator I feel. Throw the oem black rubber on it and you have a winner.

Thanks everyone.
The blue croc is AMAZING. It’s a deep Royal Blue and almost looks black. I really like it. But agree regarding the rubber, it’s too bright. I might get a RubberB black and blue dual color strap. Or might get the Panerai Sportech with blue stitching. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Maybe a solid dark grey or black rubber strap? I’m not totally sold on Rubber B for Panerai, as they fill the end links. |

When I bought my 1313, Bal Harbour swapped the blue OEM rubber for a black OEM rubber at my request. Panerai over did it a bit with the color on the stock rubber strap.
It is very, very bright blue. Forgive me, but to my eye it cheapens the look of the watch. I will try to take a picture with the black rubber strap and post. Overall loving the 1313. |

I like the fact that it is simple and versatile.
The leather strap makes it look like a dress watch while the blue rubber strap truly gives the sporty look. Blue dials are always my preferred choice too. |

Looks awesome. I'm sure an Asso strap would be a killer combo on that one. Enjoy!
