The Panerai Source Forums

Hi All,

I am new to the forum and thought I would share pics of my new/first PAM. I wanted a big watch to add to my collection (Rolex GMT Master II, Baume & Mercier William Baume Collection 8757, Corum Admiral's Cup Trophy 41, and Tag Heuer Aquaracer Chronograph) and had it down to a PAM or Breitling for Bentley GMT. I finally decided on the PAM as the Breitling was a little more difficult to change out rubber strap and bracelet. I was close to getting a Power Reserve as I liked the PR on the dial but went with the 328 as I really liked the look of the sandwich dial and the size of the 1950 model. Very happy with my selection.

Now the fun part of adding a couple of after-market straps. Any recommendations for this watch?

That's a beautiful watch!! I would recommend an Ammo strap from any good maker, probably go with a medium-dark brown. You could go all out with a Ted Su.

Excellent, thanks. I just ordered 3 Toshi Straps, black, papaya, and blue. Now I just need to find a nice croc to complement the collection.

For Gator Straps, my fav for crazy hornback style straps is SanDave, and if you want a more refined, but still somewhat chunky strap, Simona makes deadly Gator straps.

I just got a black shark skin from H18 for my 312 and it's great! can't go wrong.
