000 or 372? Start small or go for broke?

too late guys... i handled the 372 over the weekend and i'm utterly smitten.
i also managed to see the black bay... that's a nice piece too. especially with the vintage aged strap.

thanks for the feedback guys. any idea what's the best price of the 372 now? i see a lot of grey dealers offering them in the 10.8 - 11k range?

If u dun mind preowned, this is the best price so far for a one month old 372.

Bro...I recall what you told me about why you didn't get the sharkmaster. Are you sure you want to dump so much money into one watch?

long story bro... maybe share with u in person when i do get my nxt watch.

but yes... a bit skeptical about spending so much on a 372 too - plexi-glass, manual-wind movt, no complications, but my god does it look good in the flesh.

372 nice.

[skydweller_sg]

for this budget ~10.5-11k, you can consider a used 233

Panerai a bit dangerous to pour so much money into. Base models quite safe, won't lose too much even if bought BNIB, as long as you didn't overpay in the first place.

But have to agree that the 372 has an incredible aura surrounding it. P3000 movement also very gorgeous. You won't need another panerai after the 372.

my personal advice is go for the 372 if it really appeals to you..

i was considering a base PAM and the 359, but after looking at them in the flesh, decided to cough up the additional amount for the 359 instead

gorgeous watch. but have to think carefully about when and where you'll be wearing this 10k watch to. It's got a lot of wrist presence, so not a great "dress watch".

That said, I'd definitely go for the 372 over the 000, having owned the 000 before.

yeah... part of me is thinking if i just go for the 372, i won't need another pam. or at least another luminor

probably gonna be a weekend watch or occasionally at the office. i seldom wear shirts, but judging from its thickness, i don't believe it will fit under a shirt cuff?

well, realized that some Pam owners, no matter what they go for, they always keep a base Pam. Like 111,000,005 etc.. But its up to individual preference I guess

depends on the cuff part size of your shirt, and thickness of the strap/buckle you use

Pam 372 for me and now maybe a Pam 422...nicer by looking at the real thing instead of photos (seeing is believing)
