Trade Opinion

Would you trade...



682

For



557

I’m thinking it’s a great idea.

I would , for submersible i prefer the 44’s .
And the 557 is the same exact watch as the 372 with the exception that the crown is on left which I loved and preferred over the 372 because it didn’t irritated the wrist.
I had the 557 and the 372 , that’s how I know.
Pam 372 and 557 are iconic Panerais, as long as you like 47 case size it’s a very good choice

Good luck

No thanks. I find the 557 to be less versatile and only looking good with a leather strap.

I would. I like the 557 and think it changes things up in the Panerai world of ownership.

I really like the 682, so, no, I wouldn't trade for a destro base.

To me, it's a pretty even trade. Do what your heart tells you.

Over the past 12 years I've picked up a 111, 24, 1305 and 372. We definitely have the same taste. Just have both if you like both. Takes longer having to save rather than trade but if you still like and wear your sub, it's an easy choice. If you don't care much for it, the trade is a no brainer.

Sure, I'd take a 372 or a 557 anytime over any "plain" Submersible.

I’m not a fan of 682 (I prefer the classic 24) and I collect destros so it’s an easy choice for me...though I still prefer 368 over 557 in terms of comfort (and longer PR)

I would not do it. A destro is always a special watch and you really have to love it except you wear it on your right wrist.
