Icon7 Some Advice

Hi all,
In the midst of getting my first Pam..since i am a newbie so would like some advice from senior here before making my purchase.

Been looking around and now deciding between these..

1) 104 brand new at HK47K
2) 005, second hand at HK33K, condition looks ok from pics. With paper and box.
3) 111, 42k brand new as well.

Cheers,

I got my first PAM couple weeks ago and looked at the 005 111 177 and 000 and found a nice 005, no box but has papers and i love it, i am glad i got one with the seconds hand and logo, looks nicer with it, at least in my opinion.

If you want the date, 104, otherwise, with the ones you listed and at those prices, 005 for sure. I prefer painted ("sausage") dials on Bettarini Luminors. Good luck with your choice!
