Why not going on a Rolex rather than on a Panerai?

 
 By: amanico : December 2nd, 2011-13:48
A small case + the date are not featurees which are lcearly in the Panerai DNA. In consequence, wouldn't it be a smarter option to go on a Rolex? 40 mm + Date, you have a lot of choice: GMT, Subs, Explorers ( not the new one, which is much bigger with its...

Hi Watchnut, Hopefully we can give you some inspiration here!! I am fairly conservative and originally liked the panerai 40 and 42 sizes (at the time owned a rolex explorer II) but over several years gravitated towards the "panerai-size". Sometimes I stil...  

Considerations for your first Panerai

Since you prefer a Radiomir and 40mm/42mm, how about the PAM337? I know it doesn't have a date on it, but that's what your iPhone is for LOL. Regards, ED-209

If you insist on a Radiomir, and can stretch your budget
