Penerai over Rolex. Most Rolex looks too uncle but Explore II slightly better. Still prefer 388 though

[Jean Ramon]

Totally agree, more stylish is the Pam! You already bought one as the first post is 2013?

[lukas4690]

In my opinion, Rolex Explorer II is the better choice

I will go for Pam. Explorer 1 i find a bit small

For me, its Rolex anytime. Robust and precision timing.
You might want to research on PAM. They use a lot of ETA movements and they are notorious for very poor timekeeping. Critics call it a toy watch.....

Explorer II is a GMT watch. Pam 388 is a in house P9000 calibre. Explorer II can choose to have either white or black dial, but usually ppl will buy the white dial. Explorer II can get S$8500 or below if you try hard enough, Pam can have the straps change easily. It depend on your liking though.

Hi,

Why not both? I m currently enjoying the Pam 210 Radiomir base and the 21650! Both sharing wrist time but the explorer gets more!

what?!?!! what kind of stupidity is this? lol i own both rolexes and pams and both are great watches. Pam models using external movemenets are slowly being phased out (however, the base models are hot favorites among pam lovers) and most PAms actually run on in house movements. As for ETAs being poor timekeepers, that couldnt be further from the truth. I dont have a PAM running on ETA, but I do have a couple which do and ETAs are pretty much robust movements.
