You said it in the review. This is a 'pure' Panerai. Love this. So simple, so beautiful. Throw on a black alligator for pairing with a tux, or put it on a distressed brown calf skin for the weekend.
I wore a friend's recently and fell in love. Wears like a dream. Thought I'd always go with the luminor case but this changed my mind. Saving for one of these now!
I almost bought this few years ago. I did not go for it because the seller in AD was rushing on me and says "we are about to close, you gonna buy this or not?" ...
Would the Pam183 be a good choice for a first Panerai? I love both case styles but this one checks all the boxes I look for in a watch. Plus I have a 8 1/8 wrist.
Probably not but if you are worried, get the 8 day version of this watch, PAM00609. The 609 is basically the same price with an in-house 8 day calibre and sapphire case-back. It is my MOST accurate watch and I have modern rolex and Omega watches.

I have 7 3/4 wrist, it wears fine. The wire lugs give it a smaller look an the wrist
do they still make this watch? i cant find it on their site
Hi! The PAM 183 was discontinued several years ago. You can now only get it pre-owned!

Is there a crown thread issue from constantly unscrewing and screwing down the crown?

@@algorithm007ify That's exactly what i did. I got the 609 because of the inhouse and 8 days pr.
Watch Aficionado sandwich dial on this one is so much better though
