cableguy Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 as u can see from this rollie picture..... I don't own any Pam's but am thinking about one for my next watch..I have NO idea where to start. Looking at something that is more on the plain side (no chrono) and with a see thru back (ive always thought those were super cool, especially with all the pics i see of the Pam's with their super detailed/designed movements.... Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Start with 40mm PAM 50 or 51 or one of the 42mm Radiomir chronos. See how they fit. Next thing you know 47mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Yes I too would suggest a 050 (40mm but solid back) or a 42mm Radiomir. I would prefer the 050 (black face) vs the 051 (white face) as white watches seem larger than they actually are (as all white things vs black things). Anyway, I have a 17cm wrist, and I always wear 44mm models, and not rarely even 47mm models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Anyway, I have a 17cm wrist, and I always wear 44mm models, and not rarely even 47mm models. I have a 17cm wrist and wear a Fiddy and a 187 manhole cover. It's all to do with confidence. If you think your wrist is too small, buy a $100 PAM111h from Silix. If after a few days of wearing it you still think it's too big, you can flip it and probably lose only the postage on resale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Sss- Do white things look bigger than black ones? Just don't tell our significant others. Oh yeah, back to the topic at hand, Pug's idea is a good one. By a cheapie and see whether you like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie2112 Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Cableguy, I am right with you here, exactly the same situation. I am after a silver coloured plain Panny with a classy look (not over the top) and only have 17" wrists. Will piggy back your advice received Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gargoil Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 I've got 18cm wrists and can handle a 44mm PAM ok. I also have a Planet Ocean 45mm and think that is my limit size wise. The planet ocean seem sto wear bigger, if you know what I mean. I think with the bigger watches like this it helps if you don't wear the strap really tight so it can slid eup and down your wrist a couple of inches.
