Pam 359 Inbound! Few Questions...
So I haven't owned a Pam in a bit, I have have a Pam 359 coming. Question...
What makes it a dirty dial?? What are people referring too? Below is watch. Anyone around here have a 359? I have a shoe box of straps to put on it... Thanks for replies in advance. https://davidsw.com/shop/watch/paner...s-automatic-4/ |

Nice, congratulations!
The “dirty” dial refers to the heavy ecru lume. That coloring wasn’t as wide-spread back then, so it got a nickname. |

Great watch. In my experience the lume is still good.

My joint first Pam. I absolutely love this piece. For reasons I can’t explain, it’s probably my favourite in my collection.
