Hi guys,
I certainly didn't think I would buy my second PAM so quickly, but I found the perfect PAM 177 to compliment my ZERO and I just had to pull the trigger. With the brushed case, display back, sandwich dial, etc. it dovetails so nicely with my 000. I am absolutely thrilled (and a bit addicted)...

B. Doggy · 7 May 2011, 06:56 AM

Those are crispy pictures you got there!

mfer · 7 May 2011, 06:58 AM

Very nice! Slow down and enjoy them.....and if you don't, pick up a Rad next!

esm · 7 May 2011, 07:41 AM

Nice. One sausage Lum and one sandwich Lum - healthy diet that is

Agree with Mik - Rad is worth a look

Thanks! It is a blue Ralph Lauren oxford. I think I have nearly every color, but I always use the blue in my wrist shots.

BTW...Steve Mulholland has a nice pre-owned 111 for sale in the Sales Forum right now. It is missing the box and papers, but the watch appears to be in great condition and the price is pretty great.

Good luck in your search!

Thanks Cru! My wife and I have very different definitions of what constitutes a "good week"...from my perspective, yes, a very good week.

Thanks Dalip! I am thinking about ordering one of those Toshi straps for this one. I am definitely going to enjoy these two for a while, but I am also determined to buy a 233 to "complete" the collection...well maybe a Radiomir too, but then I am done...I promise.

Thanks Michael. I find the 177 to be a fabulous watch. The light weight of the titanium really makes a huge difference for me in wearing comfort. Plus, the cool slate gray color of the case makes it a perfect match for any strap. I LOVE it so far!

fstnlgl · 9 May 2011, 06:12 AM

Great Pair. Congrats. Some how Panerai grows and grows on ya. The more you own, the more you search for another. Enjoy.

Atomant · 9 May 2011, 10:48 AM

Congrats love the brushed finish on the 177!

SaddleSC · 10 May 2011, 01:32 AM

Thanks everyone for the kind words! Yesterday, I put the stock OEM Dark Brown croc from the 177 onto my 000 and I put a great OEM Vintage Black calf on my new 177. I thought I would share some more pics...

Speed · 10 May 2011, 01:50 AM

LOVE the look of the brushed case!!!

Shade · 30 May 2011, 05:13 PM

Very nice man, so when's the third coming? :D

ocwatching · 31 May 2011, 02:02 AM

Thanks Shade!

I have my eye on a Radiomir next to round-out the collection...unless I find the perfect 233 or 311 first!

Here is a newer pic on a couple of Micah straps (Brindle/Plainsman)...
