I tried on the 682 couple of weeks ago and liked it very much. I think the metal bezel fits the watch character better than the ceramic one. The movement in the 682 is a P.9010 Panerai in-house movement while the 683 has the calibre XXXIV that is a movement shared with other Richmont Group brands like Baume Mercier. A Baume Mercier with basically the same movement costs USD2600 and the Panerai 683 is USD9500.
I clearly favour the 682 and will buy it hopefully soon.
