Pulled the trigger!
After lurking in this part of the forum for a while I decided to get a Speedy Pro as soon as possible. The heritage of this model makes it a must for any enthusiast and after securing a deal on the second hand market and waiting 5 weeks for a polish and replacement crystal here it is Couldn't be happier, I think this completes my collection (16610LV, 16660, Breitling Crosswind Racing) and I doubt I'll be making any more purchases (for a while at least)!

Help with an old Patek Please
Hello. I am trying to get some more info on this watch. Anything you can share would help as I know nothing about it. Thank you.

PAM292 vs PAM505
So first off, I apologize if this topic has been beaten to death as I imagine it's a popular discussion. I have searched for info and found a bit here and there but would really love to hear a fresh comparative take on these two watches.Let me also explain my interest and how things balance for me. I've never owned a Panerai but I've been a long time admirer. After years of trying on watches, and endless hours of internet drooling, I am quite certain If I ever manage to pull the trigger it would be for a 292 or 505. I have also considered the 183, 210 and 380 but ultimately I know I won't be happy till I end up with the composite or ceramic.OK so here's my preferences and thoughts.Color and Style: I give this a very slight edge to the 505. There's something about the brown hue that is so unique and attractive to me. Also love the brown strap. However, I would be concerned that I might get slightly bored with the color scheme down the road which would push my back towards the 292
