Panerai Is The Most Comfortable Watch I Own.

[Goochenbrau]

After having my first rep Panerai for a month, Ive realized this is the most comfortable watch Ive ever worn. The PAM just feels right on my wrist, even better than gen rolex. Is it just me, or do these Panerai just fit really well? ya know, like they are perfect for your wrist? It makes me want to save up for a gen PAM.

By the way, I have the PAM 217. At $8,000-$10,000 for the gen, I think Ill consider a different model if I get a gen

Agreed - feels very natural on the wrist.

Not so if you have SS PAM with SS bracelet. It's too heavy for some.

i agree ss bracelet is not very comfortable. the 47mm pams are very comfortable also the 44mm on leather straps. even more comfortable yet is the 45mm rads.

The gen bracelet is very comfortable... It is different than the aftermarket bracelets as it tapers from 24 to 22mm... The rep bracelet is 24mm straight, no taper.

The rep bracelet is also usually all stainless steel and very heavy, where the gen is half stainless and half titanium, cutting down on the weight considerably and much more comfortable.

I am like all people who began to wear PAM : 44 is now a normal size for me, and PAM feel so good on the wrist.

But for me a PAM must be on a leather strap, not on ss (there so many lovely strap with differents patines..)

Depends on the strap.

Ive never worn a Panerai with a metal Strap. I dont think it looks that great, the metal strap kinda loses the sig. look of Panerai, in my opinion.

I have stopped wearing my 196 as often as I used to now that I have the SS bracelet on it.

It is heavy. The genuine Pam SS bracelet is 1/2 TT so it helps a lot. Gen bracelet - 1500.00.

I agree.. don't like as well bracelet on Panerais

For me this is one of the most 'comfortable' combos:

My PAM 196 with Toscana leather strap has the best wearing feel of all my watches. My 127 on a leather strap is second. I have my PAM GMT on a SS bracelet and I wear it when I want to look dressed up. I like the feel of the Breitling Chrono Avenger in Ti also.

So much to choose from so little time.

With the selection of great, comfortable straps to choose from, it's hard for this watch to not be the most comfortable.
