Anyone own the PAM505?

[Minimalist]

HI Guys,

So after obsessing about Rolex, I'm kind of put off them with all the issues they're having etc. So I've started to look back at Panerai where I first started before I decided to go with Rolex.

I've narrowed down my search to a PAM505, really like the look of this watch, but a bit concerned about the thickness. Comes in at a whopping 17.5mm. So does anyone own this particular watch and how is it to live with? Pictures would be great. I yet still need to go and try one on, but I've always loved the look of Panerai, and it will be my next watch to finalise my collection....for now lol

I want an automatic, I know the manual watches are a lot slimmer but I can not be bothered with the winding, especially with a screw down crown, makes me uncomfortable. I'd be happy to hear of any other alternatives, but I am pretty set on the 505. Plus after that the prices shoot up quite a bit.

Thanks for reading

M.
