how many Pam do you own?

I just got my third Panerai this week. Now I have Pam 233, 323, 371. But I still want to get some of the 2011 special editions if I can find them (Pam 372, 382, 386, 368). How many do you own in your collection? Do you think 3 is enough and I should get something from different brands that I don't have yet? I guess I have to add that all of my Rolex, Cartier and Breitling are just sitting in the safe...Panerai gets all the time on my wrist...
How many Pams is too much?

I have two, a 164 and a 351. I'd like to add a 000 to the mix. My Rolexes aren't getting much wrist time lately.

You'll never know until you find out it's just too many...
For me it's one but again I'll never know...

It is a never ending search my friend. There is no right number for the perfect collection. You are lucky to own 3 and considering more. Enjoy the hunt and enjoy those Panerai!

And for the record, 3 for me 1 for the lady panerai wise.

I agree it is and will never be enough. Only one Pam for me as my true love and passion is in rolex. The Pam for me just mixes it up a bit. :)

Just one :-( 351. BUT, looking at Radiomar for collection, either 338 (don't know if too small) or 210 if I go stainless.

NICE collection Phil!

351 with Sub, which is getting zero wrist time because of PAM.

Right now I have a big fat ZERO in my collection. . I can just stare at and sniff my straps. However, I've laid down my dough for that 372 and hopefully my AD gets their allocation next month. I'll know in 30-days. Didn't come in August, but no surprise there.

I hate not having a PAM.....

Gotta update my response. I picked up a 000 today to go with my 164 and 351. I think I have what I need for a while. I have a Base and a Marina; polished steel, brushed steel, titanium; sandwich and painted dial; ETA, Valjoux and in-house movements. I'm set for a while, and broke.

Should read another recent thread on regarding "339 Composite case issues" which may change your mind.
