359 for me as well. It will be my next watch...I love everything about it...the full polished case, sandwich dial with second hand and date window (a must for me), transparent case back, and dial number "patina". It also looks great with a variety of straps, which I plan to get when I get the watch.

yes im stuck between 351 and 359.

359 edges out the 351 by a micron

The 351 was the 1st panerai I lusted for, the 359 was the first lust I got a good deal on- that's probably why I voted 359. The wife wears the 359, I wear the 190

The stenciled numeral sandwich is pretty cool. Of course, the 351 gold hands on the brown face is beautiful but perhaps less flexible, stylistically.

I have a love/hate relationship with the 351. I've owned this watch on 3 seperate occasions and I would still choose the 351 over the 312 and 359...

359 gets the vote for me as I also have one. I have a thing for the polished bezel and case, a little more presence on the wrist imo.

If I had another black dial watch I really liked I would probably have gone with the 351. But since I didn't and this was going to be my first piece I went with the 312 because it just matches with everything at the end of the day.

Love the hands and dial of 351, but I would be scared to wear such a big watch that's made in titanium, which is known for easier to dent and scratch than stainless steel.

I would go for 359 instead because the dial is more unique.

Good luck with that. He's never posted a pic of any of the watches he's claimed to own in this forum (which is a lot), only stuff he's grabbed off the net; we were bugging him for ages in the AP forum to post a pic of his supposed AP FC Diver, and the only thing we got was excuses. Go figure...
