Not a chance. That being said, the 390 is my favorite PAM model.

I will be the contrarian...
is your wrist good with the 47mm? if so I see the 232 and 372 taking up your Panerai wrist time...
while I love the 390..I just feel that the 372 is just a bit more watch (SE or not)..
Your mileage will vary...

I have both watches. It's strictly personal preference, but I'd do it. I like the gold hands on the 390 but otherwise not bonding with it that much. I'm back to wearing my 177 most of the time.

For me the Sub-C is more of a foundation piece that can be worn every day.

I have the three PAMs in question and would agree with Phil...

Go for it! It wil give some variety to your collection.

BTW- Are you OK with the size of the SubC? After wearing 47mm PAMs it will feel tiny on your wrist.

I wouldn't. The 390 is a great reference.

Just curious as to why you are considering selling the 390 out of the three you have... is it getting the least wrist time?

Don't do it. The 390 is amazing but if it's not getting enough wrist time...then do it. Both are beautiful watches
