Looking for my 1st Panerai
Hello all I would like some advice or opinions.
I have been wanting to add a GMT my collection for some time. At first I thought that an Omega Aqua Terra Chrono 44mm would be good although it looks a bit underwhelming and lacking in something. Like a photocopy of a fine piece of art I suppose. I absolutely love the look of the GMT II with coke bezel. I thing the watch is small and even a Fat Lady may look childish on me. I actually sold my 16610LV because of that. Then I thought about the new 42mm explorer II but that is too similar to my Deepsea. I love my Deepsea, it's my favorite watch to wear from looks to comfort. I would like to note that I would like to stick to a bracelet model as straps tend tend to look off as my wrist bone forces watches to sit funny. It is kind of irritating. I tried a pam on before and it felt nice. Can't recall if it was 42 or 44mm but I'm sure I can pull off a 44. I have a 7" plus wrist. Just looking to get some info and have been combing through info trying to narrow my search. I have no idea what Luminor, Radomir, or what a 50's case mean ![]() GMT 297, 329, 347 NON GMT 328, 299 Keep in mind that I would like to try and stay under 7K and not concerned about buying a previously loved watch. Any help or guidance would be awesome. I look forward reading your thoughts on this.

I think the 329 would be right up your alley.
In house movement, 44mm 1950's case (slightly different shape and feel of the regular Luminor cases). I don't like the PR indicator on the dial of the 347 personally. Your price point should be doable on a well cared for pre owned. Good luck. So many wonderful choices with Panerai. ![]() |
