[Decision made!] Breitling or Panerai - which would you buy?

Recommended Posts

Intresting

The Monaco is instantly recognisable.  As is the PAM.    Can't find any decent Monaco reps, they are all Jap quartz.   Plenty of fantastic PAM reps about.   The rep builders build to demand.  So it will follow there is a greater demand for the PAM than the Tag.    I would drop the Breitling out of the equation all together.  It really just a little to generic.

Breitling is the poor mans Rolex, Panerai have a subtle classiness about them, they are unique, do the honorable thing!

"Poor" is a relative term in this context... But I see what you're getting at - and it's all a matter of taste really, isn't it?

i.e. if you've got good taste, you don't buy a Breitling.

 

(JOKE!!! I have a Breitling. Although, I also have questionable taste.)

Great choice. Although the Monaco looks great in the watch box, the Pam looks great on the wrist.  
The Brietling, well it’s not a Navitimer so poor choice all round.

Ha!  So its the unique easy to spot cushion profile and that it is a much desired watch (thats why so many reps) that wins the choice.  What can I say.  I concur.  :beer3:  cheers

Wasn't that Tudor (back then: now they have their own reason)?

About Del's choice: Lovely watch.

But I would have gone for the Monaco and got the other 2 as reps ;)
