Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days PAM 321 Watch Review

[@langstondah7350]

I'm glad he showcased research with the rubber strap because it looks bad ass with the rubber strap! My 320 is on the rubber strap and I never take it off. Panerai makes incredible watches...I like my 320 as much as my gold and steel Submariner.

[@jdstarek]

Great review. Like you say...once you take a look...try it on...it grows on you. I was immediately drawn to the large, simple sandwich dial design...but now I love swapping out my many aftermarket straps. I keep thinking I want to get into an AP RO...but I always seem to come back to the versatility of all my straps. With a black croc strap it's quite formal...but with a beat up vintage brown strap it's a completely different watch...and quite sporty (good for the beach) with the rubber. And with the new P9000 in-house movements it's hard not to love these new pieces. I DO wish it was a bit shorter on the wrist...but oh well...can't have everything. And PS - for those looking at other high end makers, the power reserve on these is amazing. I have a 72 hour reserve on my "3 days" ...and there is an "8 days" which is almost unheard of for any other luxury brand.

Great watch, house movement, P9002, 2 straps set, included gator and rubber, excellent GMT function and second hand reset, date on 3 o’clock and PR 72hours. Italian design and Swiss movement.

[@Conish22]

Being able to cover the GMT hand is a very nice feature for when you're not traveling.

[@WatchGeek]

i thought a GMT hand moves 24 times in one circle but this one seem to move 12 times (if you know what i mean)!! The reseting secnds hand is SO COOL and useful, that surprised me in a very good way!!!

[@jal2550]

LOVE the profile. looks like a 1950;s TV set. Love it

[@cosrin]

@Diego Menendez - NOT an ETA movement !!! Its nice to know something about that subject before you are about to comment on it. !!!

[@DrMaximilien]

Ariel insisted I mention this was not a real GMT :). True enough. However, still useful to me since I usually simply track EST with other timezone. Cheers all.

[@ablogtowatch]

You are right, in that sense this watch is NOT a traditional GMT. More like a second time zone watch.

[@Mister19Eleven]

Thanks for the informative and detailed video. I just got the 1321 model so this watch with a blue seconds hand. I wanted to ask if you have ever had it happen where you pulled the crown out completely to set the time, the seconds hand resets and hacks but when done and you pushed the crown back in, the watch is not running and the balance is still locked? Have you also had it happen where the seconds did not reset to zero but was a few seconds off like at 58 or so? I had these things happen yesterday and it took several tries of trying to set the time for it to finally work. So far time keeping is good but I hope there was no damage caused and there was no manufacturing defect, especially with a brand new watch. Thanks.

[@tyman3331]

The best brand ever! Price and quality is highly reasonable.

[@sfdiscovery]

This way better than Rolex since I have both but I like Panerai more because this is more masculine

[@ripperx444]

I agree. I bought the Pam 320 and love this thing!

[@DrMaximilien]

Leather straps from TimeRepublic on eBay for ~$60 and alligator and asolumente from Panerai for a lot lot more. Oh yes, movement is P.9002 executed entirely by Panerai in Neuchatel, except the hairspring. Thanks all for watching.

[@Beastzz77]

At first u though it was too simple and toothe same but the longer I look at it just the more it glows damm so beautiful

[@martinblanklikeswatches]

while that particular dial is a tad busy imho..I love the 1950s case..and the brand. Thanks for the review.

[@laowai2000]

Just purchased but do not like the stated obvious 'Power Reserve'.

[@andycarr9722]

Great vid but unlike rolex gmt I am unsure as to how the gym function works

[@MrPawa00]

However, you can still see the tip of it ^^ which would drive me crazy. I like Panerai's a lot but I can't get over how thick they are if you buy a watch with their inhouse movements. And paying 6000$ for an ETA 6497-2 isn't my cup of tea :(

[@HbbH38]

Very nice review. Was contemplating on selling my Rolex 116613LN for this. Think your review just helped me make up my mind. :)

[@nickc2124]

Hello, very nice review. Do you have any idea how the nighttime lume on this 321 compares to the faux patina lume on the 1321?

[@masgordo]

I hear the 1312 is a lot brighter as it is a newer watch

[@atl3630]

Prices on the models with ETA movements are crazy high. Prices on the models with in-house movements are pretty darn reasonable.

[@atl3630]

It is a bit busy, especially for a Panerai. And especially for a 1950 case.

[@dirkirsche4321]

Hey Max, how big is your wrist for comparison?

[@ph69jbl]

By 15 mm thickness you meant 18mm, right? ;)

[@jumplicked]

Thanks man... what your wrist size?

[@edwinkrieg]

The 321 has a 100% in-house movement not ETA

[@masgordo]

Is ETA better than in-house ?

[@laowai2000]

@@masgordo Both tell the time well. Argument the in-house is more unique . For instance historically the ETA in a lot of watches from mid to high end!

[@jonnieinbangkok]

"If you don't like the GMT hand you can just cover it up." WTF...how about not buying a GMT watch in the first place. Also, how do you tell the 12-hour zone on the second time with this watch?

[@atl3630]

Nevermind, I love it now. Gimme.

[@sowelu9247]

Nice watch and nice review. Thanks for posting

[@atl3630]

I love the 1950 style case, but they messed it up when they added that 3 day reserve indicator and the date window. Too busy. Not that I wouldn't wear it though...:)

[@nickc2124]

They also make a version with the power reserve on the dial. Check out the PAM320. Same case, movement, and complications with the power reserve on the back...

[@bigcat9606]

where did he get the straps. need some

[@nsebast]

I have this PAm 321. The power reserve indicator keeps decreasing despite I am using it everyday to go to work. Is this normal?

[@julianschiuma328]

Well These watches are automatic watches so they power themselves when Moved. In You Move a lot they gain more power and You neednt wind them manually. You probably dont move a lot at work and thats why the power decreases

[@julianschiuma328]

+Rob Logan in this case i would bring it back to panerai to let it be fixed

[@yshgamers1798]

tes

[@davidcami7347]

My strap broke. Where can I order an exact strap like that rubber one?

[@MrHugin97]

David Cami At a Panerai store. :)

[@voiceblastleads]

+David Cami Maybe ebay

[@sfdiscovery]

Love it

[@nsbrando]

thats a cool watch, i want one

[@xfan616]

[@kicaj1205]

LOVE THIS !!

[@MikeBisney]

It pretty nice though!

[@shahnawazfarooqi2672]

love the watch

[@HumanumErrareEst]

Lovely watch well reviewed, thank you.

[@SuccubusLover69]

i would agree.. this watch model has a pretty busy face

[@laowai2000]

Wish they did not state the obvious by printing 'Power Reserve'. Just purchased same watch not complaining too much!

[@twell609]

Nice watch

[@charlesdean03]

It's not a cult following dude where did you get this data from?? Panerai is a watch which men perfer as it's a manly watch and it's not materialistic like Rolex and other brand. So if you want to call that a cult go ahead!

[@MikeBisney]

Rolex! Sorry I'm stuck with them......

[@masgordo]

You wouldn’t be here bro

The 321 is 18mm thick. “I Think” doesn’t fit in a review. State facts next time!

[@ripperx444]

@MrPleers your a main stream breitling gay aren't you

[@YasserAlmukhtar]

I don't find it attractive at all

[@masgordo]

But here you are

[@atl3630]

Power reserve on this model ruins it IMO.

[@TheRealOriginalDiegoM]

ETA movement...no thanks, not for that money.

[@laowai2000]

No ETA here. It is an in-house movement.
