Anyone else excited about the PAM 346?

Always loved the titanium+tobacco, and it has an in-house 8 days (2002/9)













This is the smaller 42mm PAM 338, but it shows how nice it looks on the wrist...

I'd be a LOT more excited with no cyclops or no date.

Yeah, the smaller 42mm 338 is nice - same "titanio" designation and use of titanium/steel. Black dial, no date. Missing the in-house movement also.

It would have been perfect for me had it not had the silly cyclops.

Brushed case, polished bezel, gold hands, small seconds ,sandwich dial and inhouse movement.

The cyclops is fine on the Luminors, but, I'm not 100% convinced on Rads.

Pretty sweet, overall.

Yeah I thought the same thing about the cuclops when I saw it in person, it kinda looked out of place and I think the cyclops doesnt really cover the date properly somehow. I cant really explain it in words..

Buy what you like,personally I find it a bit too chubby for a radiomir but I love the titanium and rear PR

For the current pre owned price,it’s tempting if that’s what you’re looking for..
