My new acquisition...the nicest watch by Panerai?Posted by chuaks
Many collectors consider this watch as the nicest watch ever produced by Panerai todate, and closest to its vintage root. And yet it is on the regular production, which means all collectors should be able to get one..
Yes, I am referring to the PAM372. Was very fortunate to get a call from the boutique that my PAM372 has arrived....finally.
Each time I see other collectors posting beautiful pics of their PAM372, it makes the wait harder... 
Here are some pics : PAM372 with its original dark Tan vintage strap : 
IMO, Panerai has done a great job with the straps that comes with 372. These straps are thick (abt 4mm), and the edges are raw, which is what collectors have been asking. These straps are really nice (though I would prefer the dark Tan strap to be less glossy). Unfortunately, I have set my mind on a strap that I love so much.....more than any other straps in my collection. Thus need to do the standard ops..
PAM372 with the spare OEM light Tan strap. What do you think? 
PAM372 with my favorite strap : 
Some wrist shots : 
Close-up. Sorry, can't capture the nice deep engravement of 'Panerai Luminor' : 
Back case of the P.3000 movt, which has an independent adjustable hour-hand that makes the changing of time much easier : 
Having handled and worn the PAM372 for awhile, I must admit that the PAM372 is a really nicely done watch that makes me feel like I am wearing the vintage 6152 (which I can't afford one). The feeling is very different from my Fiddy (PAM127). Looks like my Fiddy will be neglected for awhile...

It's always magical to get a call from the Boutique
The 372 looks great on you. Wear it in good health
there will be more pics to come..
The strap that I used in the PAM372 (as well as my Fiddy) is the original Bruno strap. Its abt 5mm thick and the texture is really vintage looking, making it like it has been worn for many years.. Thanks slide68. Ciao, chua Panerai Forum Moderator
When one gets a call from the boutique, it always makes the heart beats faster for that moment..
Thanks Pauline. Cheers! chua Panerai Forum Moderator
I tried several strap combo but still find Bruno to be the best for me...
Pic can't do the strap justice....Really nice strap. Cheers! chua Panerai Forum Moderator
The official pics of PAM372 looks fantastic! The actual watch is just like what the pic shows...fantastic!
I hope I will not neglect my Fiddy too much...

I started with 40mm Panerai watches in 1999 as I find the 44mm too big for me then. Now I have no more 40mm Panerai watches as I find them too small.
So I am sure you will get use to the size...
