Clearly a sign that you should buy the Pam instead.

That first Rolex looks good on you. But the PAMs carry the day. Now, that may not be "the look" you are going for. They are more of a "casual tough" look. They go good with the tattoos...but maybe that isn't what you want it for. Can't go wrong with a Rolex...

Oh, the PCLs aren't hollow (or so I remember it being discussed).

Yeah the PAMs just didn't speak to me, I love the precision of a Rolex and the engraved rehaut. Love the lume and simple dial of my 114060. I think the blue dial pilot will be a good second choice for a less expensive under the radar watch

it does but I like a more subtle watch I realized once I had a PAM on, really happy with the IWC, this is the second one I have owned, the aquatimer I had always felt like I got it because it was a diver that was less than a Sub, I got the SubC now and wanted something a little more low key, the PAM ended up being the exact opposite!

I will revisit PAM again at some point
