Icon5 What do you think on 311... Help!

I am in Panerai confusion...just deciding which one to get.

Latest piece of research I saw the 311 at $12,500 which feels a good price. So much so I am leaning toward that and figure and if I get the yearning for a 372 or 233 then it is an easy trade.

I think the 311 has a bit of everything.

I have a iwc big pilot 4001, so already have one big watch in the collection and for now feel maybe a 311 is my best bet.

Let me know what you reckon

The 311 is a great looking watch, and I love the tobacco dial. But I personally prefer simpler PAMs and find them more appealing, so I would pick the 233 over the 311, but you can't go wrong with either.

Cheers,
James

Are they that expensive now? Time for me to check a current catalog.

This is a 2nd hand one, the mrrp is 22k.

That's one of the tempting parts

On one hand it seems a good deal, but maybe the price is low as they are not so easy to trade/ sell as other models, like a 233.
Also personally I don't like such busy dials on a PAM but I'd prefer a 351 for tobacco dial... But I am a simple guy!
Good luck
