SOOO Different.
Also do you want a 39mm watch or a 44mm watch with a crazy (IMO) crown lock mechanism thingy. I believe that is what Panerai calles it "a crown lock mechanism thingy".

Given your current collection, I would go with a PAM. However, I will either get an 105 or 000.

Well, he asked about the 111 but if we're changing the model all together, I'd go 312

PAM 111

44mm with transparent caseback.

Exactly what the Rolex lacks!

Not entirely sure if the missing card is a major issue? But sounds a good price...

Sounds like the 111 is pushing your buttons. That's the most important thing.

in my case i would go for a Rolex over any watch (maybe except a PP :D). But if you already have a Rolex then its safe to get another brand :P

Exactly.


Besides, the Explorers seem a bit small and quite dainty.
