I'm a newbie here and I Love the forum.
Reading alot about Panerai....
But its really hard to decide which model and which dealer to go with...:thinking:
My max budget is $300... and I don't want to go over this number....

I want the most bang for the buck, maybe future mods...
So can you all please help me which Panerai to get? :q5:

THANKS

Get a 111H with swan ceck A6497 movement first .
Can't be wrong for a first PAM , especially it got lot stuff to upgrade in the future .
Relume , CG mod or even replace to a better , AR .....
Lot's fun in it !

No one outside of Little Hero offers a gen looking CG for the 111. And his watches are BEYOND ridiculous pricing, IMO.

@ MR ANO - Which are you after? The 104 has the date, painted dial and auto movement. The 111 is sandwich dial, manual wind and no date. Two very different watches....

YES, they are different, but I like them both.
I like love the auto movement of the 104, but the date is just OK .....
The 111, I love the clean look of the dial, but the manual movement is just OK....
These are the reason why I like them both...
Can't decide....

You have to upload them to a picture hosting site 1st. (any site) Then use the insert image widget on the tool bar just above your reply text box, then copy the direct URL to the picture. Not the page URL, but the picture URL.

Yeah Matyoka I do like that one a lot. Do you have one? If so who'd you get it from and are you happy with it.
Thanks.
