Pam 127 Fiddy KW newest or pam 605 ZF...?? Which would you choose?

[nickt]

Hi guys
I'm not a big panerai fan but I realize that I have to get at least 3 of them
First would probably Tuttonero with 2xAR again. I had one and I sold it....and now I regret this :/
Second one would be probably 437 with 2xAR or 688 when the rep this one.
And last one should be 47mm with dommed crystal.....and this decision I would like to make and I need your help.
I think here are many owners of both of these watches or one of them and maybe you can tell me why you choose this or this....Maybe it can help me.
I would like to get 127 because of movement look, sapphire crystal, small second and history
605 has better dial for me and this is the most important when I looking at the watch...
Maybe you can post here some pictures on a wrist please...
Thanks for adwice

I would get 127. Classic and the movement is rock solid. Not too sure about the clone movement in 605. But the dial sure is beautiful

Fiddy (I have one).

If going for a 47mm base, then my choice would be the 372.

+1 for the Noob 372. Dirt cheap right now and it looks spot on from the front.

I have both a 127 and 372. Honestly, I'd go with the 372 if I had to pick one. The distortion from the 127 crystal makes the dial look so spread out and silly. The 372 is just an easy to read, straight forward watch.

I recommend using polywatch. It'll clean up that plexi in seconds!

I had both and I'm regretting selling them, said so.. Since the 438 has the 1950 style case, I will buy the 372 Noob, great piece at a bargain price at the moment.
With the difference you could pick up also a 622, radiomir 1940 case and another Super Replica

Amazon and tons of watch places. Literally type it into google and you will see.

thx for the pics. I am torn between 217 and or 372, or both...tough decision lol

217 is a great choice -- everyone needs a destro in the collection!

I will say they both wear very differently. Since the 127/217 has a bubble crystal, they feel a lot bigger on the wrist. The 372 feels much slimmer. It really all comes down to what you prefer. For me, I wanted to try them both with the intention of selling one of them. It turns out I like both for different reasons and can't see myself parting with either.

I don't think I ever understood why someone who wears a watch on their left hand would get a destro...

Haha -- it is actually pretty comfortable without having the crown guard dig into the back of your hand.

Actually I appreciate the crown guard being there compared to my iwc big pilot with that gigantic sharp crown stabbing my hand constantly. I guess it's all relative to what your tolerance is..

I'm one of the few on this board that prefers the zf fiddy... For me, the more distortion the better. I guess the kW has a closer movement decoration. But I dont care about that. The most offensive thing to me on the kw is the greenish uncharged lume... It's an eyesore to me that should disqualify the super rep status

The Gen also has greenish, uncharged lume - depending on light issue:
