For a long time my brand has always been Rolex, I bought three Datejusts back to back in 12 years :lol: back when I was a one watch man. How I miss those simple days :lol: Then it was Breitling, the cool designs and in you'r face sizes were cool, and still are to me but the brand never gave me the kind of excitement I am getting from Panerai. That PAM 90 has been my favorite watch experience ever. I can't tell you guys how much I am loving this watch.

I bought a Panerai Luminor Marina about 4-5 years ago, and then sold it without knowing much about watches.. now I find myself getting back into them. I really enjoyed the one I had for about 6 months, but now there are so many strap makers out there its really charging my interest again. But I am already feeling like I could never own as many Panerais as I do Breitlings, as they have a very similar look... and I don't like Radiomirs.. they look funny on me. I do like the 1950's case though. I do have to say that getting the PAM250 really was cool. I like the watch a lot.

I actually love Rad's, very classy!!!

Speaking of which, can you recommend any real good strap makers? Thinking of getting one or two for my 90.

On the first look, i do agree, almost all Panerais look the same, but what is amazing with this watch is how it makes a great difference in looks and feel by just changing the bracellet/strap, significantly more than any other brand (IMHO).

Maybe this is the magic of Panerai :)

Agreed on both counts Admin.
