It has arrived!!!
OK
Well you all have already read my story of leaving Panerai for a couple years and jumping back in the other day with a 111 but that being traded in under 24 hrs. Well here it is, I always wanted a 243J (last Trit dial and quick change strap) and I worked a trade and this just arrived a few minutes ago. The rubber strap fit better than I had expected with me having smaller wrists but I saw a post on another forum with someone sporting a 243 with a Jean strap and I liked the look so I quickly mounted this on a Jean strap I purchased right before I sold my 233 and never go to wear. So... Now the REAL ? Can I pull off a PAM382 AKA BRONZO!! ??????? Please excuse the horrid pics but about as good as I can do.

Looks good Jeremy!
Congrats... I actually think the Bronzo wears larger than the 243

i personally think it is slightly too big. the lugs overhangs the edges of your wrist.
then again, your money/watch - its all good as long as you are happy. |

Looks good J. Just go to an AD and test drive a 305. If it fits you and you are happing with it, the 382 will be fine.
