trying to make decision today.....
 
manual wind or automatic.... forget about price..... whoever has both ur opinion would be greatly appreciated.... once again... thank you in advance!!

Definitely automatic.

To find a manual wind, you'd have to virtually go vintage as they were discontinued many years ago. I'm talking about Rolex, of course.

There are no easy answers here.

I really depends on what you want.

Do you want a date?
Do you want a thinner watch?
Do you want a sandwich dial?
etc. and so on.

i sugest you look during one week to make a better idea.
if you are in a hurry let us know:
1 wind or manual
2 date?
3 rad or luminor
4 seconds?
5 till how much?
6 new?
7 dive?
8 gmt?
9 chrono?
to me i'll start with something simple as 000 005 183 210 112 104 111.
and don't forget to buy several straps (it's funny)

For Panerai, I will choose manual than auto.
More classic to me.

Agreed! And more fun to take off casually in front of co-workers to wind up.

I like auto's but I love manual winds. The only reason I keep thinking about buying a PAM is because I miss having a manual wind watch in my collection. Get the manual :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Get the Manual now and then get an Auto later or vice versa... This is an addiction you know.....
