Pam 25
So having sold my PAM 93 and instantly regretting it (went back to dealer and it had sold the next day!
 ) I got back into the brand by picking up a PAM25. Really love this watch. Just curious as to whether this is an unloved model as I don't see much mention of it (or the 24 for that matter). What's your view?

I've always liked the 25.
I think that more people these days are giving the attention to the 243, 305, 389 etc when considering a Sub. I had a 243 a while back, but fell for the 47mm Subs once I tried them on. Congrats on your 25! A great Sub. Love the feel of titanium.

Nothing wrong with it. The hobnail dial is different.

I love all Panerai subs. You're right about the general lack of attention to the 24/25 models. My guess is that people prefer the massive size 47mm ones (which generally wear a little smaller than Luminor cousins since the dial is a little shrunk with a big bezel).

My first Panerai was the 24 which I still own and adore. I dont think I will ever get rid of it...try changing your oem strap to a black alligator for fun and the watch looks great with a suit, so many things to do with it. The 25 is aslo a superb piece but I went with the 24 as I like things shiny, otherwise, the style and look of the 24/25 are still one of my favorites.

I love the titanium 44mm case. The 25 was one I was considering as my first pam. Ended up with the 177 instead. The dial is fantastic.

Nice feedback guys and thanks for the congrats.
I love the 25 and just wondered what the Paneristi thought of it, especially as I heard a rumour it was going to be discontinued. Having sold my 93 I just had to get a PAM again! #sellersremorse Love the dial! Here's a wrist shot. Now on to the next grail, which is an AP Diver!

The hobnail dial is special. That's what makes me prefer it over the 24. AP Diver would be crazy nice to add... |

I wear a 24 on an alligator with a suit. It is my favorite look. Much more exciting dial than my 112 when I had it.
