No 203 love? That muthah is king!

No love at all for the PAM 203. The 127 was the first 47mm Luminor case. The 203 copied the case put an old movement that really was not a gem even in its day. They fabricated a classic...which is impossible. Like the black dial vs brown dial and the 8 giorno lettering is an afterthought.

Take out the Angelus movement and the fact that only 150 pieces we made...95% of the general population would pick the 127 for looks and symmetry.

Just because a few guys on a forum think it is the cat's meow does not mean anything to me. It is a copy of a previous PAM (127) and it is a fabricated classic.

Simplicity...

Yes, I see the beauty in the simplicity of that watch, it is very nice.
However, I believe this watch is the nicest one for my smaller wrists, I don't own one yet, but it's on my long term list:

Not to hi jack this thread, but I totally agree on the 98.
I've had a ton of Panerai's and this is the one I have kept and wear everyother day ( I swap with my LV).

Beautiful watch but the plexi-glass crystal is a deal breaker for me, I did the vintage thing for awhile and got so frustrated with scratched crystals. Sapphire only for me!
