PAM for me

Hi

I am thinking of getting either piece from Japan. Wanna ask all of you for polls, though here is Rolex forum. I haven't owned any Panerai yet, but I do like 388 due to the rich history of Radiomir and inhouse movement. As I have a budget of $10k, I'm keen to get either Rolex Explorer II ($10,500) or Panerai 388 ($9,400).

In the meantime, any of you can give advice on getting watches from Japan? Heard direct discounts from taxes on the spot. Kindly share if you know. Thanks.

Explorer 2 white dial gets my vote!

I more realistic. Whichever has a higher resale value gets my vote
