should I swiltch from 352 to 233?
 
As said guys, I love the gold hands and Ti on the 352, but the domed CRystal and dot am/PM feature of 233 is also getting to me..

Should I trade up?u

Norman,

The 233 is an all around awesome watch, not to say the 352 isn't.... but you get the point. The superdome, the nicely laid out face, the overall feel/size, the 8 day movement.

233 is one of the best PAMs around IMO. The dial on the 352 is very nice, but I've never been able to get into the metal band Panerai models.

I would do the swap if the height of the 352 bothers you.
The 233 is a great piece and 8 days is great but not too fond of the crowded dial.
I have kicked it around a bit myself with my 312. I love the 312 with the only issue being the height. Just a bit...

I just tried my friend's 233, it does sit better on my wrist. However, is the domed crystal on the 233 "softer"than my 352? Since I accidentally noticed it has swirlies all over when it was subjected to my phone's led light when I was trying to take a picture of it.

They're not deep gauged scratchs, but swirlies, not visible directly, but only on close up and strong light.

I checked up my 352 and it has none. Well to be fair my 352 is newer than my friend's K series.

Any thoughts on this guys?
