First Panerai Purchase 114 / 630

[iidzlii]

Looking to purchase my first panerai and I seem to lean to these 2 models the best. I like the beige coloring on the 630's markers and hands, even don't mind the ETA movement in it since it will make any fixes easier down the road (i could be wrong.)

The 114 is the predecessor and has screw down straps whereas the 630 doesn't, any thoughts from the panerai veterans?

Easy one I like the 630 also the logo in blue

I love 6497, but the blue logo on white dial pops! It's s toss up. Did I help?

For me, 114 without hesitation. Better case (not snap back), no blue on dial (just white and black is more crisp & more versatile with straps) and regular lume (I generally don't like PAM's fauxtina, especially on white....I think it only looks good with ceramic or on brown dials).
