    New Arrival: Pam

    Hi,

    After browsing the website for some time I have decided to share my latest arrival. Having owned many watches from different brands I have always wanted a Panerai. I recently came across this 183 for sale and had to have it.

    Here are some poor iphone photos( lost camera)






    I think this is going to be the first of many :)

    Thanks.

    Congratulations Tomo - great watch, smart display caseback and a beauty to wind :)

    The sandwich dial was a real revelation to me - not just the lume, but the impression of depth it creates too.

    Mine says hi...

    Congratulations!

    Having recently been diagnosed with Paneritis myself I'm told the condition has a habit of multiplying so good luck!

    Thanks guys, on the look out for the next Pam hopefully a pvd or ceramic one and also onto new straps. Anyone got any recommendations of colours to go with the 183?

    Congrats - 183 is a lovely piece 8)

    Looks like an earlier 183 from your pics - possibly a H or I series at a guess? Did you get the OEM tan strap with it too or just the black calf?

    183 is very versatile in terms of strap choices - it suits most things - a plain calf in tan or brown will dress it down a little and look smart but casual but if you want to dress it up then a nice gator in black or brown or honey tan will do the trick 8)

    that's what I like about panerai, new day, new strap! check the usual (after market) suspects.
    beautiful rad btw, congrats :thumbright:

    Re: New Arrival: Pam

    Can anyone tell me what size of screwdriver I need to change the strap?

    Re: New Arrival: Pam

    Just be careful you don't loose those tiny strap wire screws when you change straps. If they drop on a carpeted floor - forget it!

    A 1.4 taper tip is the usual weapon of choice but it is a bit loose in use. If you can find one of the 'hollow point???........ anyway parallel bladed types, that would be better and less prone to slipping and damage :)

    Some nice, 'authentic' straps here :wink: http://www.manifatturefirenze.it/home.php/sel/0
