watchme22 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Looking for a nice submersible to replace my Gen that I just sold. Any idea where I could find a good quality 24 or 25? Prefer the 24 but either one would do. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Looking for a nice submersible to replace my Gen that I just sold. Any idea where I could find a good quality 24 or 25? Prefer the 24 but either one would do. Thanks Of course. Give me a minute to find some. Toro Bravo has some Arktos and North Pole on Special sale plus the other Submersible PAMs he carries. http://www.torobravos2014.com/index.php?route=product/special Just got this from him a few days ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchme22 Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Thanks. I looked, he doesn't carry the 24 or 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightwatch Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Thanks. I looked, he doesn't carry the 24 or 25. Hi, where have You been looking? There is a whole section for submersibles and another with the 47mm and another with the Arctos etc.. If its the 243 at least Noob and H-maker: http://www.torobravos2014.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=35_58 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Ok You want the PAM 24 and we don´t understand why You want a rare, not-so-well repped PAM, normally You would have to modify when/ if You get it. There was an Eddie Lee version in 2006 and a Davies one in 2010 but those are times long gone and just from what I read too. Good luck searching.

Jkay Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Maybe I'm taking crazy pills. Isn't a 243 just exactly the same as a 00024 but with an HE valve and "1000" stamped on the lever? It's up to you, but the 00024 just doesn't exist in a quality watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 The only 24 or 25 is DSN/ Davidsen. I had the 24 and it's a great watch despite the low crown that seems to bother a lot of members Though the 243 might be higher quality in certain aspects it's a little top heavy and aesthetically not as nice as the 24. Go for it http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/120039-pam-024a/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Somehow the 24 got me interested in researching a bit, looks so nicely polished. Hont is TD over at RWI, never ordered from him because he only ships direct and I´m in EU. Until Monday is holidays but he seems to have the Davidsen version or homage of the PAM 24: http://www.hontwatch.net/davidsen-hommage-panerai-pam-024-luminor-submersible-watch/ Please post a review here if You order it. Have fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panermaniac Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 That 24 on Hont's site was posted in Dec 2012. Are you sure he still offers it? I love the 24. I want one now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korneevy Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Why buy exact same piece from a middle man if you can just as easily source from David Sen directly? David is easy to deal with, and while I won't buy any of his watches anymore due to low quality, I will be the first one to say he is a great and friendly dealer I work with, and will fix issues and supply spares without questions asked, as long as you understand what you are getting, that is. Just shoot him an email and I am sure he carries 024/025 that you can pick up from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I bought a 24A from Davidsen back in 2010, it was a pretty nice watch, however I realized after I bought it, I didn't care for the polished case, should have gotten the 24B instead. I would contact him and see if any are still available, also keep a lookout in the sales forums, I have seen them come up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I just emailed Davidsenjpn about a set of hands for my 063, I also asked him about the PAM 24 and 25 he said that he haas them available. I would email or PM him if you want a 24 or 25 sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watchme22 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Got some good info for the OP and lo and behold he has disappeared!!! Nah...I'm here juggling 3 different forums! I appreciate the help guys. Kinda concerned with the quality of what I've seen... in terms of 24 or 25. I think a 199 Regatta may be a good option too..if I find one!

panerai153 Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Looking thru the sales forums on the big 3 rep sites, I saw a franken 24 or 25, can't remember it had a gen trit dial and hands and several other franken parts. Can't remember where it was, but saw it yesterday. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panermaniac Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Isn't there a 199 up for sale here right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
