What would you guys do?? I currently have a Sub 16610 and a Explorer II polar. What you trade the Milgauss for the Pam 312? Thanks.

I wold not but then again I do not like or understand Panerai

The GV is on my short list and is a beautiful watch

CoachRolexRyan · 15 October 2013, 09:30 AM

Different strokes for different folks. I don't get the Milgauss. The 312 is sexy. Isn't Milgauss Bart Simpsons nerdy friend??

kieselguhr · 15 October 2013, 09:33 AM

If you really really really really really really like the Panerai.
I wouldn't. The Milgauss is a unique and beautiful Rolex. Its also green... mmmmm

Chewbacca · 15 October 2013, 09:35 AM

i'd do it. both can be acquired again if you're not happy.

Watchdog · 15 October 2013, 09:46 AM

For a change yes.

iazrollie · 15 October 2013, 09:53 AM

I love the milgauss. Wouldn't trade. So unique, yet so classy.

Old Expat Beast · 15 October 2013, 10:06 AM

If your uncertainty requires you to seek advice, then no.

Laszlo · 15 October 2013, 10:07 AM

I would never do such a thing.

sir_wolf · 15 October 2013, 10:16 AM

I wouldn't do it because the PAM312 looks too BIG on my wrist.

anothernewphone · 15 October 2013, 10:21 AM

If your wrist can support it, I say go for it! It's a very cool looking watch.

nick c · 15 October 2013, 10:24 AM

Try 1st the Pam 312 it's very heavy watch to begin with

travisb · 15 October 2013, 10:30 AM

The 312 is a nice watch.
If I was to choose one or the other, it would be the Milgauss.
Seems like you want something new though...

richard371 · 15 October 2013, 10:41 AM

If you want a completely different watch I would go with the pam. I have the 321 and it's a nice change at times from my sub or daytona. Also the strap thing is fun too. It's almost like having a different watch when you swap the strap out. I enjoy having a pam in the collection.

jbsmith · 15 October 2013, 10:47 AM

I would, but I'm biased.

Just picked up a 312 and love it! Definitely adds diversity to any collection. Plus it has a date.

The Milgauss has never sang to me.

Good luck with your decision.

Bobcat09 · 15 October 2013, 10:50 AM

No.

bottom of the ninth · 15 October 2013, 11:11 AM

I would! The 312 is an outstanding piece!

Mr.X · 15 October 2013, 11:37 AM

I wouldn't. The GV is very unique and fit and finish much better than the 312. The 312 also fits weirdly on the wrist (eg. If the GV fits you just right, the 312 likely wont). It's very thick and rounded below the case.

This.

I had the 312 but sold it because it was unbalanced (too top heavy) on my smallish wrist otherwise I'd have kept it. As you're an 8" wrist, you may be ok. Best advise, try it on first.

busytimmy · 15 October 2013, 01:01 PM

I would do it if my wrists could pull off the Pam.

Great advice--try it on. PAMs look really cool in pics but don't work for everyone; particularly the Luminors. I find them too top heavy and way sporty and not very versatile. I've seen boutique guys wear them with a suit but I think it looks odd. Just my two cents

Joearch · 15 October 2013, 01:36 PM

I have never really liked the Milfuass. Had a 312 for a couple of years and sold it last year. Really miss it. Works well with your other two Rolex watches.
