Hey Guys, just check this out. After my first two-tone Rollie-Rep I´ve got something to really love. This was never my first-choice Pam as its rated a low-grade Rep (non-working depth gauge) and in mop for a Panerai it was overloaded with information. But I could get my hands on it and oh wonderful surprise: What a wonderful watch for a Newbie! Tuna-cans can´t get any better:) (well the Pam 243 probably is and has date...) Solid 180 grams weight, super-smooth and solid clicking one directional bezel, a fascinating slow-motion turning seconds dial with nicely engraved rings below, lots of hands and dials nicely glowing in the dark with a clear 12 and 6. I just love it. It´s a big watch but not too big, it just feels perfect. Everything fits, clicks and feels just solid. Nicely engraved closed back. And the automatic A2813 bi-directional movement in this one has a perfect high-pitched winding whine (if You hold it to the ear) which stops rock-solid after +- a second, movement like a gen-watch of the eighties, I just love it, nothing like the never-ending rotors on the low-end reps. Depth-Gauge is just manually set would be fascinating to see that one really working on a dive. This PAM totally convinced me already. 6 weeks ago, before joining this Forum did not even know the brand, just saw it in the movies, now I already ordered some straps, the 1950´s casing is what appeals most to me and a Flyback Chrono and the mythical 127 will sooner or later come around (always thought that beauty would be too big, but after this PAM193 with case 47mm – thickness 20,5 mm fitting perfect, the 127 should be no problem at all). Thanks to the Forum which introduced me to Panerais and their history and the Reference PAM-Review-Guide. Any comments, info and critics on this watch are welcome as there is few information about. Enough talk now, on to the pics:
