^ooh a Maltese. Spotted a lady wearing a Pam yest at lunch. No watch though.

Realise this angle with full arm and part body is a good gauge of watch size proportion. This is also how people see you, in totality. Often straight close up of watch on wrist suffers from some distortions (I'm not a photographer but heard this being discussed elsewhere).

Talking about it, I saw a about 1.6m 50 kg XMM wearing the PAM 305 believe it or not. She was wearing it further up her arm. After seeing what big watch style looked like on her I told myself I'm ok with 47 lol.

Matches u well.. But strictly a casual watch. Not for shirt n pants

The 305 looks really nice on you. What the price for 305 vs 24?....BTW all the best to yr family... hope everything is ok... Yesterday night me also spend 4 hrs plus at KK.. lucky kid is diagnosed ok .... and today my wife also not feeling good... .. weather is hot also.. hiaz...

You take care pal.......

Pam24 ~10k
Pam305 ~13k

 

[sharkapl]

man you guys have decent wrist size which makes the watches look good on you.
i am on the last hole of the paros strap and there is still some space left

 

[yattokame]

Perhaps you can consider cooling down first. Buying a watch most important is you like it a lot and feel happy wearing it then you won't regret buying it.

The only time I get buyer's remorse is when I'm influenced by people's hoots and think I want it, and I buy it under the that influence.

Snzh is a good example of you kena poisoned by the pics (my fault ), then you go hoot, then you regret cause it looks toyish on you.

And that blue t-shirt guy, his wrist is so big he makes the 47mm looks like the 44mm on you.

Think before you hoot.

Why buy something just for the sake of buying. All these "Hoot first, think later" meme are harmless until you start believing them.

But... if you still want to get one, then both 44 & 47mm sizes do fit you nicely, regardless if it's a Luminor or a Sub.

Once you get one, or a few Pams, you can start playing around with straps!

Definitely cooling off now. Because i really am torn between the two. Like the face of the 24 but wants the size of the 305.

Maybe they will have a 024 in 47mm? Perfect.


Btw the snzh looked ok on me - it was the srp. Sold the snzh cos it wouldnt have gotten any wrist time.
Who know the srp looked so toyish after mod + wrong strap.

Anyway just call pam ion boutique. They have a in house technician and they say can help remove the dust on the spot. Those who need minor servicing can go ion boutique direct. Going to bring it there on wed probably.

my opinion? need the lifestyle and attitude to pull off a 47mm and especially a submersible - cos its loud

its not like a rolex that can fit auntie, uncle, boss, rich kid regardless of dressing and lifestyle...so maybe best to also seek the opinions of significant others who sees you for what you are...

....BUT i think you already know what you want... just pull the trigger and go for it, its half the fun of this hobby
