Those are two totally different watches mate. One is a chrono, the other one isn't. One has tritium-like lume, the other one doesn't. One is a domed xtal, the other one isn't. Each one is good in it's own field, so it's kinda hard to say. In terms of accuracy and especially the movement, I'd go with the 212
359 for me too. The 212 looks a little bit too busy for me. I love the simplicity of Panerai and the 359 has too much going on. Going by the vote, though, I'm in the minority.
Go with what YOU like.
get both !!! it's a rep
i'll take both coz they're both unique...but putting them side by side, the 212 draws me in more..
