Help please based on my requirements?

Hi guys,

As this is my first post please excuse me if this has been covered before.!

I have been interested in watches for as long as I can remember. After lusting after a Rolex Submariner for years I finally saved up the money and purchased one! I have to say this was the best decision I have ever made and I absolutely love it!!!!!

I'm now getting to a position again that I can now make another purchase with savings I have built up.

I have my heart set on a panerai luminor case.

As I'm a complete novice where panerai is concerned I was wondering could you list some suitable models that would recommend for my first Panerai purchase?

My budget is £5000 max however if I could spend less it would be a bonus.

I would like to buy a model which hopefully can hold its money similar to a Rolex

As I have quite a thin wrist I feel 42mm should be my maximum.

I would like a model which offers ease of use when changing straps.

After consideration I think it better to go for an automatic vs Manual due to dexterity issue I have.

Finally I seem to like the clean dial type face opposed to date window etc.

Could you also recommend whether I should try to buy new or secondhand.

I really appreciate members taking the time to read this and hopefully assist me in advance.

Hopefully with your help and advice I can soon join the panerai owners club!!!!


God bless,.. A
