manual wind vs automatic penerai?
Does manual wind means the watch needs to be wind every few days?

Manual Panerai tend to hold their value better.
I guess for daily wear one would go with an automatic like 312/104, or power reserve like 233. I prefer 270 10 day reserve(auto) for looks, very expensive though |

I have worn auto. Rolex watches for a long time, and I have to say that I much prefer manual wind movements over auto's. I absolutely love giving my Pam a full wind, flipping it over and looking at the movement, watching the gears turn is awesome. It's also nice to know that the watch is fully wound, unlike my Rolex watches were I am left guessing if I need to wind it or not.
Manual wind Pams need to be wound every couple of day's.

I love manually winding my 183. It's nice to do every morning when I have it in the rotation.

you know guys... you can still manually wind your automatics... :)
I prefer the automatics and if I have the itch to wind, I can just wind it up like a manual. |

i have to say i do enjoy the manual wind , and indeed its easy to assure your watch has the power reserve , however i do enjoy the auto's also.
