Hey guys,

I am trying to limit myself to only 2 PAMs.

What would be your ideal pair or duo?

I thinking 104 and 24. Or possibly 104 and 210?

Lets hear your thoughts and see your pics!!!

000 and 210.

Historical and DNA

mfer · 24 January 2012, 10:45 AM

Either Eric's call or you can get one with a sec hand for variety. That said, I love the bases so if only two in that range, I'd do the 210/000, but I'm not going to limit myself to just two!

Love that 190 Mik! One day, I will get one... well, I hope the wifemaster let's me!

red1108nyc · 24 January 2012, 11:15 AM

Well, without breaking the bank.. how about this Rad(380) and Sub(25) combo!

Psmith · 24 January 2012, 11:46 AM

I'm a Luminor chap, so I would suggest one Luminor case and one Luminor 1950 case. Perhaps one manual wind and one automatic. I also favour sandwich dials and small seconds, so would probably go for 111 and 312/320

htc8p · 24 January 2012, 12:09 PM

if i were to get 2 pams. i would get one historic and one inhouse (maybe the 8 day power reserve)

TswaneNguni · 24 January 2012, 12:26 PM

127/249
372/425
372/448
422/449

etc.

Breaks the bank,but we are sticking to two ....I can live with a duo like that.

Rollie2011 · 24 January 2012, 01:56 PM

No Submersible love??!!

bcacncnc · 24 January 2012, 02:05 PM

What a tough choice. Well, on the Rad side, the decision is quite easy... 210 - without a doubt. Great DNA, great value, and if you choose to mod the hands to gold hands one day like Mik - looks amazing.

On the Luminor side - well many options. If the 312 fits you, then that would be a nice complement to the 210.

The two I have are 000 and the 233.

snowpea · 24 January 2012, 02:20 PM

I'm in the same boat only want 2 pams, just pickup the 312 now just waiting on that 388 Rad.

Cru Jones · 24 January 2012, 06:28 PM

just two? impossible....

Fiddy · 24 January 2012, 07:04 PM

If I can have only 2 Pams, I would go for 372 and 232.

MY dream Duo

233/372

tonydaniel · 25 January 2012, 12:51 AM

I would do a submersible for casual days and either a 312 or a 233 for when I want to be a bit dressy.

watchdaddy1 · 25 January 2012, 01:20 AM

U can't limit yourself when it comes to OP- They r like a drug -ADDICTIVE & Impossible to to release it's hold it has .

MP5 · 25 January 2012, 01:22 AM

LOVE the 000, 210 suggestion!

B. Doggy · 25 January 2012, 02:20 AM

372 / 425 or 190

esm · 25 January 2012, 06:22 AM

My "other perfect duo" would be either the 127/249 or 372/448

Fearsome Puppy · 25 January 2012, 02:11 PM

Here's my two for consideration...

Fearsome Puppy · 25 January 2012, 02:13 PM

Meant these two...

Here is what seems to be working for me - for right now anyhow

312 - which nearly everyone is familiar with, and a perhaps slightly lesser known 323 - 10 day in house movement, GMT, 47 mm (case size of a 232 w/ the case thickness of a 190)

Here is a quick pic with them both dressed in Mauser Ammos....

Good luck with your search! The good news is that there are no wrong answers. Go with what speaks to you the loudest.

I'm liking the way you're thinking...........425 for a Rad and I'll stick with my 416 for a Luminor.......I'm happy with that and didn't break the bank!!!!!!!!!

Have the 372 and 249

127 expensive and difficult to source in my part of the wood.448/449 part of the "Boutique only" rubbish

Therefore,for next year a 422 and 425 would go down better than Dom Perignon ....

Oh and a DD II in YG too ...

Explorertwo · 30 January 2012, 12:25 AM

My dream duo: 111 and 232... i' m half way......
