Goochenbrau Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck88 Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Agreed - feels very natural on the wrist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takashi Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Not so if you have SS PAM with SS bracelet. It's too heavy for some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavor flav Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 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.

swdivad Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 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.

Golfman Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 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..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goochenbrau Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff g Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree.. don't like as well bracelet on Panerais For me this is one of the most 'comfortable' combos: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usil Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) 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.

Dario33 Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 With the selection of great, comfortable straps to choose from, it's hard for this watch to not be the most comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
