I'm 30 years old and I just purchased my first Panerai one week ago today. I purchased the PAM 164 - K Series. I absolutely love it. Not to mention my local AD threw in an black alligator strap so the watch is VERY versatile. I couldn't be happier.

However, my next purchase will be a Submariner.... that'll be a little while though :)

I've noticed PAM wearers are more discerning WIS types in general. Not taking anything away from my Rolex bretheren, but a lot more people wear Rolexes who have no passion for the brand unlike PAM owners who generally know exactly why they're wearing Panerais.

That said, I'm still sticking to my oysters.

Can the Panerai be worn on suits? For some reason the strap makes me get the feeling that the watch is more suited for social occasions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I wear the Omega Moon manual winding watch presently.

Im got my first pannie at the age of 27 2 years ago (and wants to buy more) ....the best thing with a pannie as compared to a typical luxury watch is that its so easy to change the straps and is readily available in the market.

and a wide selection too

Change the strap of a pannie......Boom! You got yourself a new pannie!

I'm in my late 20 and just picked up a PAM 312. I love the versatility of being able to change the strap for a different look. What Carlo said :)

Cheers,

Actually Panerais are considered by many yung n old the timepiece to be seen in irrespective of age...

I find Panerai's design to be more catered for the younger generations, and Rolex for the older..
I'm not sure what it is, maybe the size?

tkc324 · 17 September 2009, 04:36 AM

Don't get a Panerai... Rolex is much better... plus if you ever need to sell your watch for cash... trying selling a Panerai in a secondary market... its tough.
