loosing my sleep over this beauty.....

I recently acquired Pam 339 and during my research about it I found out about Pam 335. I been looking for 292/384 before but now can't stop thinking about 335.
What do you guys think about 335? what do you know about Panerai ceramic cases? any links or wrist shot if you own one would be nice.

the price is kind of high, but with ceramic case it stand out more from all other similar luminor panerai watches, which is what attracting me to it.

Ceramic doesn't look bad but I'd rather have an SS model...of course if you like it go for it, that dial is very nice.

Loosing sleep? If you're sleep is loose, just tighten it up or something.

Phil,
I was told that Panerai no longer makes PVD movements, only K series came with it. Now they use smoked crystal for case back. I am split between 317 and 335. I like the automatic movement on 335 and a date but 317's case back is sexier..
Here are some pictures, courtesy of my AD

Nice pic. Have anymore similar to this? I've only purchased 1 PAM so far but I swear the brand is out to make me go broke.

I'm going to try to convince myself to buy a different brand next purchase but it may be another panerai
