lovepanerai Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 hi all, here the pam222 regatta - 100mm macro lens shots. enjoy yourself !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cheers rolli Hi Rolli - great pictures as usual! I have been contemplating about getting this one, but couldn't get myself to pull the trigger. I was concerned that the Asian movement might crap out on me and that there is a white/silver border around the date. Would you please let us know how it is holding up and it would be great if you could take a closeup photo of the date. thanks and cheers LP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubus Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 great shots as always, one of the most gorgous pams out there but i wonder if you have time to wear all your pams if you post a new one each day or every few days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Rolli- Fabulous watch. I love the dial. The comments on the movement are exactly right. My first one was a dog and the replacement has been a workhorse. It has been sitting on a winder for months keeping excellent time. Some day I will dump the case and replace with an Asian 86 case to get rid of that darned datechanger. It is on a watch winder anyhow. Then if you can change the date font it is one heck of a rep.

CISO1969 Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I have one that supposedly was the first "special limited run" by River (? or was it Eddie Lee?) Anyway, what I don't understand is the whole power reserve thing. Does the powere reserve build up as you wear it ? or do i have to wind it until it is wound and then wear it and the power reserve helps prolong the life of the wind? Are there two sets of springs? One spring? Does it function solely by being autiomatic? Anyone help me with thecare and feeding of a 222? CISO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
