My favourite daily wearer

I have always admired Panerai, been on the panerai threads many times before asking advice on which model I should get. I acquired this 112 around 2 months ago and it has basically been on my wrist constantly for everything. My rolex have had zero wrist time recently. They are a surprisingly comfortable daily wearer. Maybe it's still the honeymoon period so I am giving it another 4 months before I start looking for a partner for the 112, but I can't see a rolex coming anytime soon, I can only see panerai on the horizon

Although I am waiting for my next, suggestions on a next Pam would be good to refer back too

That rubber strap is very comfortable. Recently purchase the OEM Velcro and it is also a nice fit for my 561.

Looks great!

Panerai and Rolex go great together.... but nothing wrong with focusing for awhile on Panerai. ;-)

Congrats and great pick up! Since buying my first PAM in 2003, I never went back to Rolex. I respect the brand and it's history--Panerai is really a cousin of Rolex and relied heavily on Rolex--but for me, it's all pnaerai all the time!

There are a few options for number two. Look to case diversity, size diversity, or dial diversity...I can tell you this...I would eliminate a Luminor as your next since you have one already...focus on 44mm or 47mm Luminor 1950 cases (maybe a subsecond hand and/or date), a submersible, a 372/422, or a 45/47mm Radiomir (1936 Rad, not 1940 Rad)... good luck

A favorite for good reason. The 42mm submersible would make a great pair.

Does anyone know crystal replacement on this model and if I can source one? I have noticed small scratch. It was serviced 10 months ago so don't really see the point in sending it to panerai. Having a look I can only find aftermarket crystals which I don't want.

Very nice, congratulations!

Try a few different straps as an alternative to buying your next if you're not sure yet which it is.
