Ferrari. Vrrooom.

The factories have stopped making the PAM372. And more so the PAM557 which wasn't as popular. Your best bet is M2M. Good luck.

Josh is still active. But Noob isn't making any more PAM177s (they've since limited their product line to PAM005, PAM111 and PAM127) and obviously H-factory won't be making any more PAMs, well watches, ever.

Why wait for it to be the standard again? Just wear what you like.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Actually, it's a rather interesting story. The original factory was called KW, or Kuvarsit Watch. Then around two years ago, the factory changed its name to V6F as it wanted to establish its separate identity. Then late 2016, early 2017, V6F decided to separate its operations into two sub factories, VSF and XF. VSF was supposed to be used for Panerai, XF for other brands (although this does not seem to be adhered to as XF has released PAMs as well). Back OT, the PAM213 Rattrapante is one of those grails because of the working functions and the rather extremely limited release, like dadog13 said only 80 were made (movement was expensive and it had a low yield, resulting to low margins even with the high $600 selling price prompting the factory to stop production) and even less were sold to forum members.

Yes, there are no 47mm PAM Submersibles with bracelets and aftermarket options are not available (believe me I've tried). If your wrist is 8.25"-8.5" your wrist should rock a 47mm just fine. I have a puny 6.25" and I think it looks fine (or I'm just telling myself that LOL). Using the standard formula wrist size converted to mm divided by 4, your wrist can accommodate watches up to 53mm. If you want a more sporty look, there are kevlar/composite straps for 47mm PAMs with dive buckles. Some of the PAM submersibles can be ordered with that option. By the way, there are actually 2 44mm Submersibles with bracelets, the PAM106 and the PAM170.

It's just the case inaccuracy that is unfortunate. Everything else is good.

PAM026, PAM217 and PAM569 would be my lefty recommendations. All super-rep worthy.

You can buy the PAM111N V3 from any dealer.

I hope permanent.

You might want to look at this store. Pugwash used one of those straps here. http://www.waccex.de/catalog/

Congratulations on the purchase.

Yep, pics of the watch when it arrives would be great. Congratulations on your first purchase.
