Thinking about buying my first Panerai so I've narrowed it down to a 312 or a 104
What do you guys think? |

104 for me....prefer the Bettarini case to the 1950s case, which is top heavy on my wrist.

I went with the 312 for in-house movement, sandwich dial, no cyclops, addition of the "9", brushed case, sapphire case back, etc...
Both are beautiful though. Good luck. |

Eddie, hit me up, I can get you a great deal on a new one to put you well under your 7500 budget.
You have a lot more things in your options. But between these two I would go for the 104, it has a more classic case. |

The 312 is good one, but I got tired of my M after a couple years. The 50s case just got to be too big over time. I like the more svelte 562 I have now. |

+1. I have a 111 and 312 and I think the 312 is just perfect.
