I like both for different reasons. I'll have my cake and eat it.

Cool pic. Someone has to explain the appeal of PAMs to me, however. I just don't get them at all. (I hope I don't need my flame suit - its the AP forum).

Same here .. Both are so different and each one is special in its own right

+1

They are both great. Obviously the AP has a different pedigree, but as Mike says, I will have my cake and eat it too. Now the only problem is, I don't own either. I own or have owned examples by both brands but not these exact 2. Loved my 233 while I had it.

Love both!!
Great examples of the roots and DNA behind each brand.
So different, yet so cool in their own sense.

Ive had a Zenith Defy Xtreme at 20mm thick and a 15300 so altho they are very different in thickness, there was still a time and place for both.

How can people like a Royal Oak, yet find the Panerai 372 bland? Blasphemy lol, they are the equivalent of each other within their brands...
