Just Arrived: PAM 292

I've always been a huge fan of this watch since its debut over a decade ago. I came across an opportunity to purchase one last week and am thrilled to have pulled the trigger. It's an amazing watch!

Also, wears great with an OEM rubber strap, in my opinion.

Congrats!!!

Have always liked the 292.

I generally prefer that the hour hand be wider or in some other way different than the minute hand than just shorter, and that's one of the few Panerai models with a wider hour hand.

Congrats! Just bought an accordion style panerai rubber strap for my 384, quick question, to fit these do you just remove the metal cylinder from the strap to accommodate radiomir lugs? Thanks

Yes. Had to remove the metal cylinder to get the lugs to fit.

Congratulations.... I really like the 292. I have one and love how stealthy it is. So crisp and well proportioned. Perfect ceramic watch.
