| Mine is my dress up watch because I have a leather strap on it. They are fantastic watches though. This is probably my only picture I have of it. Far right of course. |

| Yes, I have a PAM 088 GMT that I have worn daily for 10 years. It is due for a servicing which was quoted $800 [IMG:left] 01B7BB66-D3E1-46A5-8F5D-9CE3EDF31242 by David King, on Flickr[/IMG]

| Fuck, I’m glad my extravagant tastes don’t extend to watches. 800 for service? Yikes. |

| Been wearing a 090 for about 10 years or so. I have better and other watches too, but that Panerai quickly grew into my favorite. Strap changes are easy (but not as easy as my Roadster), and straps are more affordable then the Cartier with a crazy amount of styles available, both factory and aftermarket. I can dress it up with a black alligator strap or dress it down with the rubber strap or tan leather straps. I have a 3 different brown/tan straps that go GREAT with jeans or khakis and golf pants. The Radiomir you are considering is a little dressier looking due to it's lug and crown design. I don't think you will be disappointed with one as a daily wear. I've been considering selling my Roadster to pick up a Pam0441.

I wore an 88 for a couple of years, went to work, wore it on dress up weekends. I didn't wear it on my boat when fishing in saltwater, though. I sold it after moving to UT and working from home. I have a Seamaster that I was more comfortable hiking and off roading with. _ _______________________________ "Nature scares me" a quote by my friend Bob after a rough day at sea. |
