Just wait for the LVc.

Generally speaking most 42 and 40mm PAM references are preferred by women and are not that favourable on the market.
Words of wisdom, yet again

If you want a PAM Submersible, it has to be 47mm. Take a look at the 389, which has just been replaced by the 1389. It's titanium so not at all heavy and has a ceramic bezel, which makes it look pretty classy. Also, you should be able to pick one up at a tidy discount now that it's discontinued.

If 47mm isn't your bag for whatever reason, I think you're better off hanging fire until the 682 starts hitting the pre-owned market for significantly less money than MSRP.

Good luck
