Considering a Panerai (219 maybe?)

Hey everyone,

I've been growing increasingly interested in Panerai recently, and after waiting long enough to ensure I wasn't going through a phase as I do with many watches/manufacturers, I'm seriously considering my first Panerai

With this being said, one model that has really gotten my attention is the 219. As a lefty, I think it would be a unique and cool watch to own. While it's an awesome piece, I do wish it were less "base" looking, as I feel like there are many other models within a similar price range that have more going on on the dial that aren't destros (the 104, for example).

Basically, I'm trying to decide whether to go for the 219 since it's the only watch from a manufacturer I love that is specifically designed for leftys or if I should go for a model that I like the look of more that has the crown on the right. Any opinions or suggestions are much appreciated!

Just for reference, I'm trying to stay at or below $5k (used, and the cheaper the better!), but I might stretch that slightly for an in house movement model or another destro model that is discontinued.

Thanks!
