The green PanomaticLunar is probably my next watch (I have the PanoInverse).

It will be my next one unless my AD calls and says a Rolex is waiting for me.

I would take the Santos!

1) Itll cost you less
2) They come with an extra leather or croc strap to easily swap so you get ‘2 watches in 1’

The Panomaticlunar more than any watch I've ever owned puts a smile on my face every single time I put it on. Currently have on the bracelet which is one of the best in the game. Also wear it on a fabric strap as well as leather other times and gives it a completely different look and feel.

Can you post a pic on the bracelet? I've been thinking about getting one for mine.
Thanks

Dang, looks great on your wrist!

I'm partial to GO, but I can't fault your decision. Congrats and wear it often and in the best of health!

Good move imho. Personal preference, I find nothing attractive about that particular GO.
Santos is classy and timeless.

GO is so much better looking. I had it a blue and still regret letting it go. They also look great on the new nylon straps. Much more modern looking.

Santos is a classic, congrats!

It's not for me though, OCD can't cope with all the non-aligned screws
