Tried on some panerais for the 1st time...

I went and tried on some PAMs for the first time last night. I don't have large wrists so I was hoping the watch was going to be big (so I could cross that brand off my possible addiction list!) unfortunately, it looked just fine....actually, it looked great on my wrist! my wife even liked it, and she typically gives me the thumbs down on frivolous purchases like this...

So now the dilemma like so many others post on TRF...which one to get?

First off, I'm really liking the luminors, so that helps with direction.

I tried on a 000 because that's the one everyone says to start off with. Classic. I also tried on a 104, and appreciate the seconds and date. I plan on using this daily and need the date and seconds for work.

So I get home from my window shopping event and obviously start doing research online. There are 000 and 104s to be found from trusted sellers here on TRF, so that's good news. But then I discover other models like the 312 and 390.

So now the dilemma...Do I go with??...

000 - the classic base model.
104 - auto with cyclops and secs
312 - auto with date (no mag) and secs
390 - base with vintage look and LE

I'm a sucker for great deals so if any of you paneristis could list what you would pay for each of these watches (new and used), it would help with my research and addiction!

Thanks for the help!
