My new PAM 292

Had my eye on this watch for a whle now, went to my AD about a month ago told him I was ready to buy, and 30 days later watch came in and got a nice discount too

Watch wears much more comfortable then I would've thought, never owned a Rad before. Already have a GSD CH2 starp that I am going to put on this week. Any other strap sggestions?











Thanks for looking

Very nice Spencer. I'm trying to determine what my next watch will be. I really want to see this one in the ceramic (IRL).

Looks great.

Nice pick up Spencer. Try out a Greg Stevens strap for that...seen some around on here and it looks hot.

The Rads are amazingly comfortable on the wrist..sit nice and flat.

Tell me a little about the AP ROO in your avatar...starting to become v.interested!!

Thanks budduy,I did get teh Greg Stevens Crazy horse II, likely going to put that on this week.

The AP ROO Themes in SS is what's in my sig. GREAT watch! I am a HUGE fan of AP and their RO's amd ROO's. Only negative I'd say about mine is that A) it is HEAVY and B) arm hairs tend to get caught n the SS bracelet, but it's such a beautifully cnstructed bracelet that I don't mind

I was the same way! Was thumbing through some old catalogs and I noticed that in the 2008 PAM catalog I had a BHB business card on the 292 page. Finaly 2 years later I got it

Huge Congrats Spencer!!!

I have been switching between different GSD straps. I really like the Sorrel. Try the CHIII as well. If you haven't seen the pics I have posted with the Ted Su dive strap, search for it. I think you will like it and the price is very good.

Enjoy in great health!

Yeah I was about to pull the trigger on teh Ted Su dive strap base don your pics, but figuered I'd get some wear on the GSD CH2 first, then get the Ted Su sometime before summer.

Think the 339 strap would look good?

Hopfully it's ok to say, but I got 15% off and no tax. Was pretty shocked I was able to get this dicsount from my AD. Granted it was the 6th watch I have bought from him, plus mine and my wifes wedding rings, in addition to other jewelery for my wife, and he's a friend of mine, but 15% on the 292, let alone any PAM is still pretty good.

E90.

Haven't done a proper shoot lately, also I have since wrapped the roof in gloss black and added a Akrapovic Exhaust system, but here is the car.
