I'm really liking my 510. The PAM111 is identical except for the "8 days" on the face and the in-house movement.
The 510 movement isn't too sexy looking, the watch probably would have been just as good with a solid case back, but I think the in-house movement may help it hold it's value over time.
I now officially have a watch collection!
2008 M model Rolex Sea Dweller,
Seiko Orange Monster,
and now my Panerai 510
All mint with boxes and papers.
I have too many other cool watches I'd love to own, just don't have the funds to rock at that level, but I'd LOVE to get a Vacheron Overseas, a JLC navy Seals master compressor (the one with the rubber coated, steel framed bracelet), Patek Nautilus, vintage pre-moon Speedmaster, my birth year Submariner (1967), Royal Oak Offshore, Hublot Big Bang, a Patek Calatrava for dress-up, the list goes on and on.
I think i have a good start going now though. It'll be a while before I get any more watches, although I may get a lower priced watch sooner than later. Seiko, Ball, Hamilton, and a few others might sneak in there before my next expensive purchase.
