Panerai Radiomir PAM00210 Replica Watches Online, to be a little more precise. I had a massive crush on her for the longest time. But she didn’t fit my image of what suits my style and character. And, admittedly, I thought she would look ridiculous on my arm.
Out of character
To me, the diameter of a watch is one of an almost-infinite list of design traits. As such, it has to be congruent with the rest of the design. And indeed, from this perspective, I feel that many watches are too big nowadays. But that doesn’t mean I have anything against large watches. I think my latest purchase confirms this point quite conclusively.
Still, this Panerai Replica Watches For Sale does feel out of character for me. While I have always admired Panerai watches from an aesthetic point of view, the chance to try one on evaded me for the longest time. I lived with the happy assumption that they wouldn’t fit my 17cm wrist.
The Panerai Radiomir in Florence
It is especially odd considering the Radiomir is one of my favorite watches from a design perspective. The way that the classical square Rolex pocket Swiss Replica watch blends with the tactical dial is close to perfection in my eyes. Conceptually, it shouldn’t work, but it does.By the way, I am not going into the whole rich history of the Radiomir and its origins.
Breaking my watch fast and making room for the Panerai Radiomir
In short, I have turned six watches into this one Panerai Radiomir Replica Watches China. And in this light, perhaps my purchase makes a little more sense. This is a watch I have long admired for its design. However, it has zero overlap with my upcoming VPCs. The PAM is unlikely to be among my most-worn watches, but it has a distinct role to play in my little collection. It is an outlier that is allowed to play that precise role. And I think it will do quite well.
Why the Panerai Radiomir PAM00210?
So, why did I go with this specific Panerai Radiomir? Bluntly put, there isn’t a current Radiomir that delivers on what I love about these watches. They all have vignette dials, pre-patinated cases, complications, or all the above. I longed for one that was as true to the original design as possible.
As a mere object of beauty, there are two that I actually prefer over the PAM00210. One is the PAM00425, with its gold handset and dive-style dial. The other is the PAM00294 “Historic,” again with its gold handset. Unfortunately, both measure 47mm across, which I found a bit too much for my wrist. So I knew it would be a 45mm Panerai Radiomir Replica Watches for me.
I wanted a hand-wound movement, and I did not care too much if it was the old Unitas or a more modern caliber. I also definitely wanted a sandwich dial, preferably without faux patina. Oh, and sparse printing, please. With this wishlist, the choice was narrowed down to a PAM00210 and a PAM00183.
Finding a mint-condition, full-set Panerai Radiomir
The early 2000s Panerai Radiomir PAM00210 1:1 Clone Swiss Replica isn’t super hard to come by. But once you start filtering for your specific wishes and demands, usually, only a few advertised ones remain. I was looking for one with its case in superb condition. I love these shiny, pebble-like cases, and I wanted to see mine in its full original glory. This is also one of the rare cases where I prefer a full set. Panerai watches of this era were faked in large quantities, and to some, the box and papers provide more assurance. Since I never know if a watch will stick with me or if I’ll lose the love at some point, a full set was practical for an easier resale if necessary.
I found one from 2005 with a dealer on Chrono24 in Prague, ticking all the boxes. It was freshly serviced, and it looked superb. The seller was extremely helpful, polite, and proactive. He sent me a bunch of additional pictures and a video. The replica watches for the best price looked amazing, and it all just felt right. We negotiated a deal, and I pulled the trigger. The watch arrived the next day, and it was exactly as advertised. It runs between 0 and +2 seconds per day with great amplitude, with its beautiful swan-neck regulator set to center. The case is indeed flawless. Neat!
Getting acquainted with my Panerai Radiomir PAM00210
It tapers down to 22mm, allowing me to use the original buckle. This is how I have been wearing the PAM00210 for the past week, and I love it. The strap has already picked up some blue from my raw denim jeans, taking off the overly “new” look.
Compared to my other replica watches are Made in China, living with this Panerai Radiomir is indeed a uniquely distinct experience, from the way it feels in the hand to the loudly clicking manual wind of the Unitas caliber. And, of course, that goes for the wearing experience itself.This Radiomir is quite flat and sits very firmly in precisely the right spot on my 17cm wrist. I hate when watches rotate, so this solid stance is great.
