Icon7 I joined the Darkside today!

Good Day All,

I joined the Darkside today!

After trying many watches and many Panerai's I picked up a Pam210

I just liked the fit and fell of the Rad over the Luminor.









Thanks,

Eric

I agree. Radiomirs are the schnitz. I would recommend a 26/22 or 27/22 tapered aftermarket strap for the 210 when you buy one - and you will. I like the 24/24 non-tapered for the Luminors, but the Radiomir is a lighter, less substantial watch (NOT in a bad way) and the non-tapered straps end up being a bit much. WMMV of course.

Welcome to the madness and 210 is a great way to start... simplicity at its best!

Enjoy her in good health!
