Hublot vs Panerai

Panerai. Check out the 317

My vote is for the Hublot. I like both brands, but if you're going to go ceramic/avant garde to me that says Hublot.

Hublot is a brand, quite frankly, I thought very little of until recently. I started doing some research on the Unico specifically...and I'm quite impressed...In house, visible movement, flyback... Combine that with the 42mm size, down from 45 and I'm thinking a Unico will be my next watch.

Both have very interchangeable bracelets. Panerai has more of a history. Full disclosure I don't own either, but to my point earlier if I were to go ceramic...Hublot or maybe a DSOTM. I want to own a PAM someday but more like a 510.

Another vote for the Hublot.

I have the Classic Fusion 45mm blue dial and put it on a black rubber strap. It's really common for people to comment on this watch when I'm wearing it, build quality and finishing is superb.

To be honest I never expected myself to buy a Hublot, but when I actually tried one I was sold.

PAM all day long. I have a 351, but their ceramic-cased watches are no joke. They do it often and they do it well.

Looks great on the black rubber strap! May have to switch up the blue to black on my 42mm Blue Fusion. You're right on the comments and how well the watch is built. Had an Ice bang about ten years ago and recently decided to add another Hublot to the collection. Anytime I wear it, I get quite a number of compliments!

Get the 317!!! Some great preowned prices and discontinued

I wouldn’t argue with that

Definitely the Panerai

[PeqFB]

Normally I’d go with Hublot but in this case I really like the Panerai you picked.

Hublot for me

Any Panerai over any hublot would be my choice. No hesitation

Well, I do like a Panerai - I own a couple - but, not to throw a wrench in your plans, if your requirements are:

-Big
-Sporty
-Black Ceramic
-Available with significant discount on the grey market

...then maybe consider the originators of the ceramic case:
