I was planning to find myself the older model GMT II - from my AD and unfortunately went home empty handed, though my wife ended up with a PAM049.

Beautiful Panerai. But you're right, my dad always told me never to take a woman with you when you need to buy a suit or a car (and now a Rolex)...

Congrats to your wife, I'm sure you will love seeing it on her wrist.
Good luck looking for your GMT, I'm sure you'll find one without too much trouble.

A lovely PAM049 for your wife - and look - a nice screwdriver and pin remover for you.

Congrats for her.

Please remember that this part of the forum is for Rolex topics - there is another section called "Watches (non-Rolex) Forum". That is where this thread belongs.
