This or This? What say you?

I have the chance to pick this one or a PAM 112. I already own a few Rollies and also one PAM. The black face on the Rollie is just awesome, but the PAM is also cool.

They are both calling me, "come and get me, come and get me".

What to do

Hmmm. I like them both but since this is a Rolex forum I'd have to choose the Datejust. But for kicks, let's see your other watches so we can have a more informed opinion.

Yeah, I kind of realized the responses I was going to get were going to be geared towards the DJ.

Let me see if I can remove the PAM picture :-)

I'd say DJ however if you throw a PAM 005 in the mix then is I'd say defo PAM.

Just because this is a Rolex forum doesn't mean it's a hater-of-other-watches forum! Put that Pam photo back up and let's see your other watches!

Yeah, the traffic can be brutal. I am South, so I avoid most of it when going to work. Cool city for sure, at least so far

I never go on the Panerai Forum, so you know what my 2 cents will be...

But when compared, the DJ gives you in-house movement, date function and the oyster bracelet, the DJ comes out on top IHO.

Honestly you sound like someone I know. This person is always asking me about a new Pam of the moment ... No matter what I say the Pam shows up. He wears it for a few weeks, loves it then falls out of love just as fast and trades it away. 6 months later this process will repeat....so since you are a Pam addict I say get the Pam. Then get that Dj in a few months later with a trade.....
