I think Panerai is a cool brand and was a serious collector in the early to mid 2000's. I became very frustrated with the brand for the marketing and the LE releases that only went to special clients. Got out and went back a few times, always to get out again. I have purchased a 422 within the last few months and could not be more pleased with the watch. I purchased at a fair price from an AD but understood where the pre-owned market was. Unless you can get the watch at close to AD cost, Panerai has three pricing tiers for the watches, so make sure you understand which one your watch falls into. You will be lucky to break even. When I am thinking of a purchase from an AD I check with the TS and see what the trade value is and I can make an informed decision from there. Good luck.
