My PAM and Rolex went to Hawaii (Photo Overload)

So a few weeks ago I went to Oahu, Hawaii with the family to attend my brother-in-law's wedding. Last time I was there (in December) I took the Sub-LVc so I decided that I needed new companions this time... packed in my B&R Pelican case, I brought with me the PAM 305 and the GMT-IIc.

My cousin gave my wife and I matching Panerai polo shirts that we all wore the day we got to Hawaii (I'm planning on making a B&R polo for myself next :p).

Here's my cousin and her 113


Me and my 305



We started our short vacation at the Kahala Hotel...

Checked out the beach at the hotel first



A group shot in the ocean.. pink G-Shock belongs to the wife, black G-Shock to my younger brother.


We then went to the Kahala pool










After the pool we visited the Dole Plantation and took their train tour


It was then time for our Luau at the Polynesian Center, wife wearing the Yachtmaster




For the second part of the vacation, we moved to the Westin Moana Surfrider Hotel where the wedding was going to be at... I switched to my GMT-IIc.


At the wedding reception


My wife and her new sister-in-law have matching watches (except my wife's is yellow gold TT while the other is a rose gold TT).


Also matching with her brother...


It was then time to take the GMT-IIc to the ocean!








We finally moved to the pool at the Westin




All-in-all I really enjoyed the vacation and the wedding... it was great having two very different, yet versatile watches with me during the trip. I used to be the kind of person that wouldn't want to get my "nice" watches wet, but I now try to enjoy them no matter where I go and what I do (with a few exceptions obviously... but going into the pool or the beach is not extreme). Hope you guys enjoyed the photo story lol.

Wow! I really enjoyed looking at your pics. I especially like the ones where the watch is partially submerged. Thanks for sharing.

I bet you got a lot of eye rolls when asking for hand shots.

Love the 113 on colored straps. the white dial looks great with a kelly or lime green croc.

Nice pictures but those panerai watches look out of proportion on your wrists... Any full body pictures so we can se how they look for real.
Cheers,
