    Default My 30th birthday present finally arrived!!! (PANERAI)

    For those of you who remember my post, where I sought advise regarding wehter to buy a Pam 212 or 312, here is the outcome!
    I pulled the trigger on a PAM 212!

    After troubling my mind with the decision, the dome crystal made the difference... and after having received the watch, I don't regret that decision one bit. Some people say it stands a bit tall with the dome and the automatic movement... they are right, and I love it!

    I bought a new strap for this watch - the dark brown one.
    IMHO it really compliments the watch, giving it a nice vintage feel.
    I don't know if I can mention the name of the strapmaker as they are not sponsors, but if you wanna know, shoot me a PM.

    Hope you enjoy the pics.

    Have a nice weekend.

    The box...










    The movement


    The whole package

    The new strap arrived the day after...


    And the wrist shots with the new strap

    Beautiful! I love the OEM strap, but that aftermarket one is a real beauty. Let's see some side shots so we can see just how thick that baby is! Congrats and wear in good health!

    Thanks guys!
    I realized that the pics I posted are in shitty quality, so here are a few more.
    I tried to take some shots from the side to show the height of it.

    Thanks Brian, have you chosen between the 233 and the 253?

    My pocket says neither at the moment unfortunately . But I think I would go with a 233.
