Torn between 2

I thought my mind was made but now having second thoughts, I was all set to buy the PAM but something is still pulling me to the sub. I know it has to be my decision but all comments welcome.

I have seen the rumours on here, but from what people are saying it will cost about 1k more than now, I guess this is all speculation, how soon after their announcements do they release the price.

I would say if your gut is pulling you toward the sub, that's what I would choose. I've had my eye on some Panerai's but not till I get a sub first

Depends on your peer group and world location..........

What's hot here may only be lukewarm where you are...

For me, no argument...Sub all the way. Everything else is just a passing fancy..............

Sub - if its the current incarnation. Othewise the PAM. I have the 16610 and love it to death for the classic/modern look. One would be hard pressed to find a better looking watch, but, that PAM is a very close 2nd.

Sub is great. At first I want to buy Rolex just because it is Rolex, but now when I bought I and wear it on the wist, the look really unbeatable!

It is an every man must have watch

buy pam then wait for the new sub to be at the dealer and let the buzz die down and get the sub then. You can either get the new sub or get the older model for a little less money. they are very different watches so i think you should have both!!!!
