    Default Question for you here...

    Why do you call Panerai's 'pam' for short?

    If it were Pamerai I'd get it, but its not, and I dont.

    Thanks for asking that question, Thrak. I have always wondered why they are not known as "Pani's".

    regards,

    I think almost everyone that is new to PAM's think that exact same thing, I know I did until I was fortunate to come across someone else's post asking the same thing a few year's back

    U always learn something new around here
