On a Legend today

I love this watch. Got one the moment it hit the stores here in Taiwan. Longines got this one so right and yet messed up the W.W.W. reissue. Sigh....

Hi bro..thanks  :)

I'm one of the 300..paid retail for it when I collected it from the HK Boutique.

There's is no way I'll buy from the grey market coz it'll not be special (I'm a longtime active p.com member) and I cant justify paying USD30k for it!!

Here's some real people with the BBQ360..my buddies and I at the HK boutique :

Its just hot now..vintage aside, there are the pre-Vs (like 5218/201a) and vendome models like the PAM21 and PAM203...I dont think the BBQ360 is in the same league with the pieces I just mentioned..

Hi Terrence,

I have the 250 daylight and loving it- the way the pushers are integrated with the crown guard is simply sublime. As far as chrono goes, the 250/251 is not that busy. The valjoux 7750 based movement is a proven workhorse and and so far has not given me even the slightest problem.

HOWEVER, most paneristis are more partial towards historical models where the drivers are simplicity and in most cases, T-dials' patina. So more "modern" PAMs like the 250/251 are usually not that high in the list in terms of "desirability" for most of the paneristis (its too busy a dial for most of us ristis)- if you are looking for a keeper then it's not an issue but if you are thinking of selling it later, be prepared to take a bigger cut compared to historical PAMs (in some cases, historical PAM SEs like the 232,249,127,217,360 have all at least doubled their retail price in the second hand market). I love the white dial of the 251-put on a tan strap from Simona or one of those French Ammo straps, and you'll have a winner for sure!

My take on a PAM is always this : buy a piece that sings to you. watches are never good investments- you might get lucky once in a while but in most cases you wont. A piece that sings to you will ensure that it'll always have wrist time and hence getting most out of what you paid.

Cheers & Crownguards

Thanks for the insight, I have a 112 and is just thinking the options for another Pam. Was seriously considering a 25 but looking at my collection, maybe it's time to "diversify" a bit.

So far all my watches have been black dialed and either dive or aviator watches. Maybe time to get a white/cream dial? the ExpII Blanc and 251 is certainly within the radar scope.

Yeah I share the same sentiment, Pams always look good in brown/tan straps better than black IMHO.

happy new year y'all  :thumbsup:
