As some of you know, I picked up a PAM 233 not too long ago and I'm still in my honeymoon phase with it. I noticed the new PAM 682 while accompanying my friend to pick out his first watch at the AD. I instantly fell in love with it after trying it on. I've always admired the PAM 305/1305 but never considered getting it due to the size. I'm sure glad Panerai decided to release this smaller version.

Here are a few pictures of both my new PAMs side by side.

This was a complete impulse purchase. The 2mm difference make a huge difference especially for someone like me with relatively thin wrists. I loved the way it looked and felt on my wrist. The watch retains all the original DNA of Panerai while making it more accessible for guys with smaller wrists. Thanks for looking!

That's the plan sir. I don't think I'll be adding another Panerai unless they come out with a smaller version of the 690 in SIHH 2018.

Hahaha I know! One time you like something and suddenly you like another one!

Enjoy them!

Great looking watch. I think Panerai got it right in the 42 mm size for a lot of consumers.

Saoirse32 · 6 November 2017, 01:38 PM

Beautiful. My next one I think. Congrats!

Suits you well Hank!! I think your wrist shot proves that you made a great choice - what size wrist are you?

Thank you! My wrist is around 6.5 inches. On the smaller side but I just love big and chunky watches. Here's another side by side of my 40mm+ divers (44mm, 43mm and 42mm).
