Opinions on the PAM 320 - Luminor 1950 3 Days GMT
Considering one of these as my next watch. Does anyone have one? Strong opinions either way?

I love it - one of my fave PAMs. Simple implementation of the second time zone, and the second hour hand can be hidden behind the main hour hand when not in use. Power reserve indicator on the back of the movement is useful. More functional than the 312 but not as expensive as the 233.

It's an fantastic watch! If I didn't have my 297 already I would have got the 320. Actually regret not knowing about the 320 before getting the 297 :)

Great watch if it sits nicely on your wrist (auto 1950 Luminors can be a tad thick & top heavy for some wrists).

Non-domed, skinny hands, pass. Shouldn't even be in the same sentence as the 233 imho.

320 is a lot cheaper than 233. If money is no object, of course 233.

The 320 hits a lot of features that PAM has to offer in terms of complications and design. Automatic "In house designed" movement, sandwich dial, 2nd time zone, power-reserve indicator, and an easier push button spring bar release (which I feel is easier to change straps rather than the tiny screws). All available in on package.
I owned the 359 which wore about the same and will say you might have to get accustom to the size and balance of the watch. Loved the watch but sold it for funds toward my personal favorite the 233. Either way congrats! |

It's a 1950 Luminor so I like it by default. However, I'm not so keen on the GMT versions that don't have an indicator to show whether the second time zone is AM or PM. Still a smart looking piece though
