Ey guys, i know this 2 watches are totally different from each other just wanted to get your opinion and feedback. TIA

HL65 · 28 January 2012, 10:23 PM

372 for me--sorry 233 owners. Both are great pieces but as a vintage buff the tie to the true 47mm iconic 6152-1 wins for me.

PanosI · 28 January 2012, 10:26 PM

372 for me too. Waiting patiently the call......

Fearsome Puppy · 28 January 2012, 11:05 PM

The 233 has been on my radar for a couple of years and one I hope one day I'll experience ownership of. But in this poll I'd go with the 372...

dukerules · 29 January 2012, 12:20 AM

So, so different. They're both PAMs but that's about where the similarities end. The 233 is a much more technically impressive piece, but the 372 is pretty much the greatest PAM IMO short of the 203 or a true vintage piece. I absolutely love the 233, came close to buying one a numer of times over the last couple of years, but on the wrist it's not even close to a 372.

psv · 29 January 2012, 01:02 AM

had both, 372 is too big and the 233 is a tad too busy because of the fang. As a special piece 372 is fun, as an every day piece the 233 is much more suitable.

B. Doggy · 29 January 2012, 02:18 AM

This poll surprises me A LOT so far!

TswaneNguni · 29 January 2012, 04:31 AM

372.No question.

Cru Jones · 29 January 2012, 05:02 AM

This is a tough one.

Both are very desirable and quite different. Emotionally, the 372 draws me more, but the complications of the 233 speak to the head. The size of the 372 is too much for me and the 233 case probably sits better.

In the end, I respect both very much, but, at their prices, I'd think I'd rather go for a 44 luminor now and a rose or yellow gold RAD a little later when funds permit.

cwilson13 · 29 January 2012, 05:17 AM

233 for me. Love mine.

watchdaddy1 · 29 January 2012, 05:50 AM

Decisions decisions...233 as the 372 to me & my wrist look to big & 8 days/gmt complication facinates me

Psmith · 29 January 2012, 07:56 AM

233 for me

I'm not a Base person, athough the 372 is a great looking piece

nauticajoe · 29 January 2012, 09:33 AM

233....hands down.

Agree .IMO this isnt even a contest,unless the wrists are VERY small.

tray_18 · 29 January 2012, 05:06 PM

233 all the way

Carlo Miguel · 29 January 2012, 05:23 PM

Looks like its a battle between complications vs history......

sushisummo · 29 January 2012, 06:33 PM

Both nice watch but I got to go with 233.

A320 · 29 January 2012, 06:34 PM

372 for me

Carlo Miguel · 30 January 2012, 12:01 AM

joleel7 · 30 January 2012, 06:14 AM

I am with Patrick here..all depends if its going to be your daily piece or not..

red1108nyc · 30 January 2012, 10:45 AM

Pretty amazing result so far actually... 233 is actually keeping pace ahead of the newest and hottest pam around.. that really speaks volume about this beautiful piece..

andrew79 · 30 January 2012, 11:16 AM

372 for me.

walds11 · 30 January 2012, 11:37 AM

233 by a mile. It's all I could ever want in a Panerai model. I couldn't pull the 372 off anyway.

eric23 · 31 January 2012, 12:50 AM

I really like the 372 but the 233 is the next PAM I want.

watchyou · 31 January 2012, 01:22 AM

233 for me... IMHO just perfect.

Shade · 31 January 2012, 08:55 AM

The 233 is a very nice and complicated watch. It has all the bells an whistles and at a very reasonable price too. But the simplicity and design of 372 grabs the winner for me.. Its a piece you dont get bored with..

kekes7 · 31 January 2012, 11:43 AM

233 easy, get a 372 in 12 months when the prices drop
