Honestly it has more to do with what do you prefer? Do you need a date function? If so then you need to get an auto. I have found that I don't even need a seconds function so my two BASE 112 and 210 manual winds work great for me. I actually wind both watches every morning and love doing it, like Padi says, you feel a bit more "involved" or closer to your watch.

I also have a 162 which is an auto, so neither is better or worse, just different.

If you could please, give a little more detail in what you are looking for in a watch or more specifically, a Pannie.
