Nice congrats- someone wants to trade me for my two tone 16713t gmt for a pam 389. Been wondering if I should it. Your pics look good, am starting to consider it now :)

Thx, Don't think you should, the new version of the 389 is the pam 1389 and has the blue seconds hand and the improved movement that the 389 lacks

Congrats and welcome back (again)! I like the blue hand on the submersibles more than the non-sub Luminors.

Thanks , I guess I have to come to reality and understand that I have to keep 1 PAM in my stable at all times ....LOL ......And yes the blue hand was a selling point , I had another AD offering me the 305 for $220 cheaper and I decided for the 1305 blue hand and updated movement

Same boat here, I guess every time I post an incoming here, people is thinking we knew that he was coming back ..
lol
682 is like mine but in 42mm, the only thing I would say is that I tend to prefer Titanium in these Submersibles (big watches) kind of offsets the size. And that 682 is in SS, but you probably knew that. Hey and maybe because is 42mm then weight SS it's more than fine.
The 684 it's in a league of its own ,that is a red gold beauty
Good luck !!

My thoughts exactly. It seems (to me, at least) out of place on the non-Subs but it looks perfect on the Submersibles.

That 1305 is one fine looking piece. Huge congrats, Jorge and welcome back

I don't think I mentioned how I end up choosing Pam 1305. All started me hunting for white dial , so my 2 choices were either the Aquatimer white dial (new version) or a Pam white dial.

Then I went to the AD and I like this 2 :



And I was negotiating this IWC also:




I thought dam I am gonna end up with 2 watches, is so Dumb , I need just 1. I knew the diver idea on my collection is such a need , specially after I let go my Hulk I missed not so much the watch but what a diver brings to the table. I also felt that I needed a Pam, I don't what is is but I think Pams are fun. And 3rd of course the lack of white dial on my collection. I say to myself , gosh I wish I could have a watch that gives me the diver need and the Pam fun in one ....then just strike me , daaah what about a submersible ? I felt that's the ticket true it won't cover the white dial issue but so excited to have a watch that met so many needs that I didn't care about the white dial issue .

That's the path to Pam 1305
