Thanks to the forum gurus here I ordered the PAM1359.
I received the QC pics and it looks great! I can't wait to receive it and wear it!

This is my first Panerai and I couldn't be more satisfied with the simple design. I will be adding a 441 or carob tech next.

Btw, what buckle do the straps use? Is it a Pre-V or an ARD? Trying to order some bands for future wearing options!

Either buckle will do, as long as it matches the width at the strap end.

Just know that the 1359 is one of the first in Panerai's new line of thinner 1950 cases. So if you like this, you might find the previous 1950's such as the 441 and 312 too thick, like I did! I'm loving the shape of my new 1312 and you'll love the 1359.

Thickness comparison to 312 and 441:

Damn! I guess I'll need to get my hands on a 441 to see for myself ;)

Thanks for the pic! I've always loved those Pams!

Looks to be pretty good~
The watch movement has 28,800 beats/hr, 0 sec + or - per day, and beat error is 0.3ms. The two lines follow each other pretty closely so that a good sign. When the two lines don't follow each other closely and/or have irregular dots all over the place, that's not a good sign. This video pretty much sums it up.

Here it is in hand! And all I have to say is Fu&$!ng love it!! It sits on the wrist so perfect! By far the BEST WATCH I HAVE! It blows my Rolex Sub away. Simple and beautiful.
The Lume is amazing! That just sunlight that got it glow like that. And polish is flawless!
The dial has a small amount to texture detail to it, which you can not see that amazing detail in photos!
The ZF is no joke, I want to thank the two forum members that suggested the 1359! The perfect first Panerai!

243 or 087. Or even a KW 024. And of course a Noob 372. They're literally giving them away at 158$.

Hmm...that's a tough one. What is your personal preference? Since your a happy owner of a Luminor, what about a different case style like a Radiomir 1940?
