Loving it, I tell you.

I have been branching out a bit and while I have tried PAM's in the past, I think maybe they are an acquired taste.

This is my third, and the only time I have worn one after the first day or so.

AND I am loving it. I was very worried that it would be way too big. But every time I see them on someone, I think they look great. I have seen them on some little guys the watch still looks awesome.

This is a big watch, for sure, but super comfortable. The dial is ridiculously legible and clean. The strap changing thingamig is nothing short of awesome.

Best of all, the LUME is

. Waking up in the middle of the night (which I do every night), my watch has never ever been so legible.

Lastly, I love that they are rarely seen. Even more, I really appreciate that most people have zero idea what it is.

Recently picked up a speedy pro, and between the two of them, and a couple from my past I am feeling pretty good about my humble collection.

I will pick up the new THC when it comes out and I am golden. However, I am thinking I want to pick up one from all the players in the watch world. That will take some time, but it will be fun.

What's not to love!!!! Congrats!

geekyjeff · 22 June 2013, 11:06 AM

Congrats! Man do I love that dial. Wish I coulda made that thick case work with my skinny wrists.

Cru Jones · 22 June 2013, 05:07 PM

Looks great on you, Seth.

travisb · 22 June 2013, 07:20 PM

Looking good Seth!

The 312 is a tried and true winner.
Panerai is definately not for everyone, but that's the way we like it.

Once you get it, ...you get it.

steveclocks · 22 June 2013, 07:26 PM

A warm welcome indeed

Very nice congrat

for some reason rubber strap goes very well with 1950 case

superdog · 23 June 2013, 03:43 AM

Thanks all,

I'm really enjoying this watch.

I hit the gym this morning and it felt perfectly at home.

Now heading to the pool.

Nothing but lovely over here folks.

Enjoy the day.

Glenn422 · 23 June 2013, 12:44 PM

Glad to see you like it! Congrats!

myke · 23 June 2013, 01:55 PM

I have the 328 and I couldn't agree more. The speedy is my next pick, classic and sporty.

rolexwannebe · 28 June 2013, 03:35 AM

Will this watch be too big for a 6.5 wrist?

Depends on your wrist shape and your comfort. Only you can decide!

TonyD · 28 June 2013, 03:37 AM
