Give me your opinions of the Pam 210

[rpryan55]

I'm looking for a Radiomir - I already own a Pam 48. I like the clean, simple look of the 210. Any Paneristi out there have any thoughts about this watch or a suggestion for an alternative?

Thanks in advance, guys!

Hello Dick. I think 210 is a GREAT watch. Simple, ellegant & Beauty.
And Panerai only made very few. Good Luck.

Hard to find anything negative about that beauty! gorgeous...

I tend to wear my 231 more than my 210. I do like the simple face on the rads much better than on the luminors; however, the 183 works well. I most likely am in the minority but would take a 210 over a 190 due to bang for the buck. If you have any extra coin the 232 is nice or 268.

Dick. It fits much smaller than you would expect for a 45mm. The simplicity of the two hander and sandwich dial is really stunning. Simplicity at it's best!!!!!

232 is the BEST Radiomir model so far. IMO

I'm glad you posted this thread. I've owned a PAM 104, followed by the 48 because the 104 looked too big on my wrist. Something just wasn't right about it. I absolutely loved the 48 and flipped it for a Rolex ...it's very missed, but I love my Rolex. I'll get another one some day.

Now I've never actually tried on a RAD, but am told that they do wear smaller than the LUM's. A short 2-hour drive and I can see one in the flesh...which I'll do soon. My choices are either a 210, or the 183. I'd get the 190 for the in-house movement if price weren't an obstacle. Do check out the 183 though.

Will you be keeping your 48? Also, let me know how the RAD fits comparatively, as I may also break the PAM mold and own a 40mm & 45mm watch.

The 210 looks real nice (nice clean dial), I hope to try one on someday.

Not a big fan of Rads, but I'll probably grab a 210 in the future, just to be sure.

If you get a 210, seriously consider getting a local watchmaker to swap to the gold hands. Very easy conversion & makes the watch look a bit better, IMO.
BTW, the 190 has a JLC movement, not the inhouse movement. Still a smoking watch. Gold hands, display case & 8 day reserve.

232 is a great rad but better than 249? IMHO no where close. I prefer a 45mm rad for wearability and comfort which leaves the 47mm for occasional wear and the cali dial with the plexi crystal awesome.
