They are completely diferent watches. That would depend on your taste. One has sausage dial, the other sandwich, patina dial vs green dial, luminor vs radiomir case, sapphire glass vs Plexi, closed vs Open back. Super REP status vs unknown. I went for the 411 and im super happy.

What do you like better? Luminor or Radiomir? Closed caseback or open? That will help determine what you buy first.

Thanks for your answers, I prefer Radiomir case and close caseback but following Kilowattore's advice I bought a Pam 372 noob : fantastic watch! Plexi or sapphire? I prefer plexi so these watches don't have all features in one watch .And in your experience is possible to make waterproof for swimming these watches? Pam 411 has a solid backcase and sapphire and perhaps these two

Even with a screw down crown the seals inside the watch have to be checked and greased. Same with Luminors.

It won't be available with a solid back I'm afraid as the dealers don't sell anything with customizations, just what's available from the factory. But, you can buy a closed caseback separately from Nightwatch or Athaya like the PAM372.

But my dubt between 411 and 449 Is not resolved.

Pick what you like. The price isn't that prohibitive to keep you from getting both. That would just be slightly above $300. If you're on a budget, get the PAM411 as it's the cheaper of the two. Plus if you're not familiar with the radiomir lug bars, best to try the better Luminor first.
