111, 312, or 320?
I'm still trying to make up my mind between these 3 models.
The 111 is what I originally had my eye on but after trying on some and shopping around I really like the 312 as well. Then started thinking, for a little more, I can get the seconds reset, power reserve indicator etc on the 320. I guess this is how Panerai gets you! Haha Just looking for a push in one direction or the other! Thanks. DL |

What is your wrist like? I like the 111 because it fits my wrist the best.

I prefer the fit and thickness of the Bettarini case to the 1950s auto case, so, 111 for me.

The easy strap change button on the 312 comes in *mighty* handy...

Hard to go wrong here, as they are all very appealing.
111 probably the safest bet, although I do like the 320. If you really want an auto, go 320 and enjoy the easy strap changes. Otherwise, stick with the 111.

The 320 has a few more features like you mentioned. I would vote for that.
I have a 312 now and love that too.

Not a fan of complex PAMs; they're loved for their simplicity so 111 is it for me between these three choices.

111 for sure. Owned the 312 and much prefer the manual wind & case of the classic 111. ETA is also a key feature IMO.

312 for me, as I prefer a date function and don't have the need for a 2nd TZ.
