Little annoyed
My pam111 p which I purchased in dec seems to be gaining too much time circa 1 min a day !!!!Spoken to panerai who have stated it's under warranty so they can rectify this. however, they will require the watch for approx 6 weeks which seems like a very long time ...Since I've had my PAM, my Rolex has had no wrist time at all!!!
