Pam441

Was wondering if people could share their thoughts on the 441. I know ultimately, the only opinion that matters is the person making the purchase, but I'd like to hear others thoughts on this watch.

I'm thinking of purchasing this as my first PAM. I know, not the conventional choice but it speaks to me. I don't see much on this piece, and I'm not sure if it's the color, full Arabic dial, material, etc.. Just looking for some input before pulling the trigger.

I love my 441 very much. It goes well with any kind of straps.

I love the 441 on Simona's Churchill strap with aged bronze buckle.

It's a Luminor 1950 so I like it by default. Most people are advised to pick up a base as their first PAM but I did my own thing and don't regret my choices, not for one nano-second. If the 441 is screaming "buy me, buy me" then you knock yourself out.

I realise that I'm spending money that isn't mine here but, just to throw it out there, have a look at the 335 before you pull the trigger. Same case and material but you get the P.2003 movement and a much more practical GMT function. It'll run you about US$5,700 more though. Ask them for a tidy discount and to throw in an Asso strap and it'll be well worth it.

Good luck
