Need help deciding between a PAM 005 versus PAM 01084

So the PAM 005 would be my ideal watch as it checks off all the boxes for me (sausage/painted dial, solid caseback, base model with seconds hand, 44mm, etc). However it is discontinued and the used prices are creeping up towards the 5K mark. To be honest, my BIGGEST concern is counterfeits and I am not sure if the 005 was heavily counterfeited over other models.

The 01084 is the newest iteration, I believe. Not a huge fan of the pressed in versus screw in caseback and the drop in WR to 100M, but not a huge concern as I do not plan on using it in the water. Aside from that, it is aesthetically very close with the exception of no “Marina” on the dial. Seems that you can find a 10% discount off the $5,700 MSRP and it comes with an 8 year warranty. I am not sure if the P.6000 CALIBRE movement is better or worse than the movement in the 005.

Just looking for any advice or thoughts on the matter. Thanks, everyone!
