What Goodies Come with a Pam?

Hello All.

I bought my first Pam, a pre-owned Radiomir 1940 3 Days Acciaio – 47mm.

Magnificent.

It came in a large wooden “Limited Edition” box (very impressive). Inside the box is a rolled-up certificate (very cool), a key to lock the box, and an extra crystal. Nice.

Under the lift-out tray is 2 booklets and a white unmarked polishing cloth.

I’m in the…

Is This Normal…or Does My Pam Need to be Fixed?

Hello All…first post here.

Last year, I bought a pre-owned Panerai Radiomir 1940 3 Days Acciaio PAM 662, and I believe there night be a problem with the movement.

Here’s the situation:

When I pull the crown out one click, I can move the hour hand. No problems there.

When I push the crown back in and try to wind it, it will not wind, because the hour hand still moves.

Is this normal?

However, if I screw the crown down all the way, and then unscrew it, it winds…
