What to do???? Need advice from the Paneristi....

Went to the AD this past weekend with the family. Actually went to several AD's for dofferent watch brands (AP, Hublot, IWC, Panerai). I tried on the 359, and LOVED it. My wife also loved it...she's a HUGE Panerai fan. She tried on the 048, with a pink strap, and although somewhat big on her wrist, she REALLY loved it! She told me she would definitely wear it, daily, if she had it.
I also went to see the AP ROO Panda, which I had placed as next watch to acquire on my list. I really liked it, a lot. Looks GREAT on my wrist, but the PAM 359 feels better on my wrist. I also like the all polished case and the sandwich dial "look" with the vintage patina of the 359.

Herein lies the dilemma.....I am planning to get the watch for Christmas this year. Do I get the AP for myself or do I get a pair of PAM's, one for wifey and one for me? I cannot do both (AP plus Panerai(s)). I would be quite happy with the Panerai, and wifey would be ecstatic with her panerai, but I would be VERY happy with the AP!!!

I already posted this in the AP forums, and of course their consensus is that I should get the AP! lol!! I need a more "balanced" opinion!

Decisions.......

Thanks!!!
