I am with you in both accounts

Although i'm a bit tempted with the combo 127, 232 as it is.

372 and a 448. Those are what I want to have and what I will have hopefully. Fingers crossed.

If you could only have 2 PAM to the rest of your life, what would it be?

Pam505 and incoming pam233 tomorrow. I just bought the 233 today...looking forward to it.

I was running out of time and didn't want to wait to source a dot dial so I went with am/pm.

Anyone have nay thoughts on dot dial vs am/pm dial?

Side note, I actually pulled the trigger on the pam323 but cancelled last minute to get the 233...

Well I certainly hope that's you in your Avatar 'cause you're gonna need arms like that to pull off the 60mm 2/56...
...hell, even the 365 measures an impressive 50mm... !!!

Otherwise, nice choice - love the Egiziano / Angelus not to mention the 365 is by far Panerai's most complex PAM to date.

Well I have the 233 dot, wouldn't have gotten the AM/PM it makes the dial too heavy, and love the dot which slowly becomes black or white, and the GMT arrow on mine is hidden behind the hours arrow, the dial is already too busy as it is, the AM/PM plus GMT arrow are just too much for me, but nice watch, to be honest if I didn't have the possibility to get a new dot version for 2700 euros less than the AM/PM AD price I would have bought another model, but some prefer the AM/PM, matter of taste

great watches but aren't they a bit too similar? I love both, wanted to get the 335 but it was already sold so got the 233 dot, but couldn't see myself getting the 335 now, I got the 82, simple, MM and titanium, and 28 DLC, more complicated, had the 217 but sold it, was way too big for my wrist, even though I like many models still, if I should get one it would have to be very different from the ones I have, at the same time I am dreaming of a 36, which is basically a 82 just not blue, so in a way I understand, if you fall for one particular model you want all it's declinations...

I'd go for 190 and 233.

Speaking of which, I need to start working on making that happen.

I have decided after all these years, I am a 100% Luminor guy. 190 is by far the most beautiful Rad but at the end, these are the two I will ever need!

I'm a Luminor chap (Marina, not Base models) and not into the whole SE/LE thing...
So for me probably a 320 and a 422, or a 111 and a 312, or a different combo of those 4
Possibly throw a 233 in there as well, although it has never really sung to me

Definitely the 233 as an all rounder and the 000 to cover my base (pun not intended)..

I'm sold on my daily wear PAM00187 Chrono 1000... that chronograph function comes in handy often enough.

If I could locate a pristine 6152-1... that would be my other Panerai.

Well looks like the 233 gets most of the votes, it was my first one, the one that got me hooked, so I kinda get it...

1. 438

I would like to have a left handed one, and the brown dial looks great.

Easy, 233 and 36, the 233 I have, the 36 is my grail watch, if I never get it then i say 233 and 82, the MM models just have something special about them
