I guess this is a good problem to have.

Gotta agree though. Deep Sea.

WJGESQ · 22 December 2009, 07:00 AM

DSSD, always and forever...out of these two.

Gerardus · 22 December 2009, 05:32 AM

Like the PAM, but my choice is 100% the DS

dotcomakazee · 22 December 2009, 05:37 AM

I dunno..the PAM looks awfully good peeking out here.

I'm new here but I an planning on getting the Deep sea next week. I like the Pam But I don't like straps on watches I like metal like the GMT Panerai has with the SS and Titanium links 44 mm

brady · 22 December 2009, 05:39 AM

Love the 312, except when I look at it from a side angle. From the pictures, I was dead set on getting one up until I tried one on. I much prefer the completely polished look of the 112 over the polished bezel + brushed case combo.

Lane from s.c. · 22 December 2009, 05:40 AM

I agree...the DSSD. I will say, I have had my GMT since 1985 and love it more everyday and will never sell it but that DSSD....dude I love it! Its the only watch that has truly moved me in 25 years. I don`t know what it is...it just over the top.

PAM is very understated in look!

DSSD is busy as hell.

RJC · 22 December 2009, 05:54 AM

DSSD forever!!!

I should post the same thread on Paneristi and see if the responses are the opposite. heehee.

HL65 · 22 December 2009, 05:49 AM

Dssd

CorruptedSanity · 22 December 2009, 06:08 AM

Definitely the Panerai 312. And not because I own it but because I dislike the DSSD. The dial is too busy and not in the pleasing way like the Daytona. 7 lines of useless text is unacceptable.
That particular Panerai is just gorgeous.

DSSD all the way...

RedBaronF2001 · 22 December 2009, 06:20 AM

312 is more pleasing to my eye

You've got the time and date. That's all you need on a wristwatch.

I love Rolex in general, but the DSSD is a "miss" to me for the following:

-busy dial - way too much superfluous text
-tiny dial - compared to the rest of the watch
-tapering bracelet - just doesn't match the watch proportionately
-way too thick - we get it - it's capable to 12,000+ FT, but not so capable at 0FT due to it's massive and nearly unwearable thickness.

Having said all these negative things about it, I still want one

KarlFr · 22 December 2009, 07:02 AM

Well I went to the AD to buy the DSSD but since it was completely unwearable (to tall and unbalanced for me

) I got the Milgauss GV instead.
The 312 is another story... it's bigger but it was true love at first sight

nektar · 22 December 2009, 07:23 AM

rolex

A1000 · 22 December 2009, 07:56 AM

Both great watches but the 312 get my vote because I think that unless you're going diving, it's a more versatile watch as, despite its size it can be dressed up with an alligator strap under a suit or dressed down with an ammo strap for weekends. The DSSD, however, is a great sports watch but loses out for more formal wear IMHO.
