Will Go For The...
Explorer II but with white dial. Only difference between the 113 and 111 is the dial color. I am not really a white dial watch person but the Explorer is an exception. Would settle for the Explorer II, brand diversification.
Unless you are thinking of getting another Pam like the Subs, chronos or in house movt, then its a different ball game.
Cheers.

I do like PAM113 which is white dial. The only drawback is it is manual winding again. The pros is i i can inter-exchange the straps among each other.
The other thing i do not like explorer is the 39mm case. I am very use to 42-44mm.

Well...
you have pretty much made up your mind. The white dial of the 113 suits you and you are used to large watches plus the ability to interchange straps between 2 watches that share the same lung size is a big plus. So much advantages against the one and only dis which is the manual winding.Originally posted by bearbearfury View PostI do like PAM113 which is white dial.

Get the 113. Winding the 113 will definitely bring the same joy and fun as your 111. And you dont have to worry about putting it in the winder and changing dates at the end of certain months.
Hopefully you can say, "Now...there is 2...".
Good Luck.
Cheers.

if u never own a rolex before then i will personally prefer to own one first.Y?
The answer is because it's usually most men prefer to have, my own perception!!
Likewise, then get Panerai if u just want to interchange the straps to brighten yr day or a new watch feeling daily
