Tag’s are very nice. I just purchased an automatic aquaracer a couple weeks ago, but if I had the money, I would have bought a seamaster hands down! You can travel any place in the world with the most affluent businessmen and every one of them would know what an Omega Seamaster is. ---

PAM is a great brand, but you have to love the look of a bigger watch. At 44mm they will wear similarly to the 45mm OPO. Also, by just changing the strap you can completely change the look of the watch… ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v724/turgonium/Watches/IMG_3351PS.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/e/1/e1c6afb16b37f8c49c3ac34910905ed64aa5f1f9.jpeg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v724/turgonium/Watches/IMG_3339PS.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/8/d/8d2966ee71c84feedfd8a17499aa477354f81a55.jpeg) ---

I’m gonna have to agree with the suggestion of Bell & Ross - always liked how those look, much more than a typical sport/chrono (TAGs are nice but never really “did” it for me).
