1st PAM 24 Sub

Last night I went to my AD looking for something unusual. I have a few other watches but wanted a change. He was very excited and told me how lucky I was to be able to buy this watch. #297 of 1000 First of all I will stay its awesome! BUt is it as rare as he said it is and will it hold it's value as my other pieces do? (Rolex)

Fine piece of Panerai wrist art,you invested in !! 24s are very popular,which makes them hard to find,at times.

Welcome to the Panerai world

Now how about some fine leather straps for the 24 ?? The choices are many.Enjoy !!

How come I really do not see anyone else talking about this model? It seems there are others that are much more desirable.

Good point. I liked a few other models he had, however AD said I sould get the 24 while I can and come back for others later due to the high demand for the 24. He could of talked me into something costing much more $$. Im think I am just wanting to be sure I made the right decision.

If you like it, you made the right choice.
Do not buy a watch as an investment.
But a good watch and be happy just knowing
you wont get killed or be upside down when selling it.

Well,I can tell you in my parts of the very distant woods,they are very popular.The ADs usually have a waiting list for them.

Awesome, I love my 24...unfortunately since owning the 24, my Rolex sub doesn't get as much love.

I agree that they do not show up often and are a great sport watch; however, i wear it the least next to my 243.
