I don't disagree on the automatic movements. But if the power reserve is shown on the dial, I can at least be reminded. Granted, that's one of my issues: I like the cleaner dials w/less on them.
Thanks for the reply.

Panerai is a tricky brand. I have a PAM 359 and love it. Its pretty iconic in the brand as it even has a nickname "Dirty dial".
The thing to think about Panerai is stick to the base models. Also don't buy new. You can get them for an amazing price used on the forums. They don't hold there value so might as well buy low and sell low.
When looking at the 8 day or 10 days you are getting into the more expensive stuff that you'll never get your money back on. If you really love it go for it but expect the lose. It doesnt stop people on here spending 12k on a panerai. They love the brand and get what they want.
I would go on the panerai site and get a digital catalog sent to your email. Take a look at some stuff and get an idea of what your looking for. Find the most base model of the style your looking for and your good to go.
Most people say stick to the classic characteristics (50s case, Laminar, base model, 44mm or 47mm case)
