Sub or Radiomir?
I love my 176 and am looking to pick up another PAM. Thinking about a 380 or a 24. Anyone have opinions they'd like to share to help sway me one way or another?

think the 176 and 380 are relatively similar IMO.
Would go for the submersible. |

Go rose gold.
Then you only need one Panerai.

Normally I would say Rad, but, between a 380 and a 24, I prefer the 24. Not the hugest fan of the logo and black seal text on the 380, but, there are those that love it.

Kinda like comparing apples and oranges IMHO! One is more dressy vs the more sporty look of the sub. Depends what you're going for and what would give you more use. I personally think the 380 is a great looking watch and a good value.
I tried a 24 recently and to my disappointment i thought it looked really small. I guess b/c of the extra wide bezel perhaps. |

thanks for the input so far guys...went into tourneau today to try on the PAM24....liked it...had a 391 on my wrist at the boutique last week...really just as a reference for a 47mm (all those complications are too busy for me, and if i was gonna spend 16k it wouldnt be on that watch)
anyone with any thoughts on a 243 vs. a 24? also, fwiw...the watch i really want is a PAM 399 but with an MSRP of 28k ill have to put it on the wish list. |
