Go to TimeZone.com it's a pretty busy marketplace and will give you a pretty good indication of prices. Of course it will also make you want to turn that sell into a trade. Or a trade your Sea Dweller plus cash.

My own/don't own life with Panerai continues. I bought the PAM 388 this week with their now in-house movement.


Beautiful watch. How do you like the new auto movement?

I love the radomir case but have never owned one. A 183 or if I want to be really honest a 242 would be amazing.


PAM 242, sweet. Cool

I have only worn the watch twice thus far, but am curious how their 9000 calibre series movements perform long term.

Atelier du Bracelet Parisien or A.B.P. is a fantastic place for straps. Very high quality. If this is your first or only panerai though I would look for a Metta Catharina strap. The quintessential panerai strap and so perfect on them. Great story around the leather as well.

Seems to be plenty of Torontoians in this thread. Where is the best place in town to purchase a TAG? I've always wanted the Monaco and I know some places are willing to budge a little more than others. Experiences?


Really wouldn't waste your money on a TAG. Many higher quality options for the money.

Agreed, love Heuer don't love TAG Heuer...

Then again, if you want a Monaco, nothing else is a substitute (Expect for a real 70's Heuer Monaco!)

If you don't mind the drive, Ancaster Jewelers in, well Ancaster. Ask for the owner Jean-Pierre and tell him that I sent you. He should give you a good price. Feel free to call him first, probably safer given the distance.

Have narrowed my next choice down to either a Zenith Chronomaser Open Grande Date or a PAM 347. Not usually a fan of Panerai, but this one is speaking to me.


Very nice, CSM.

It is a casual day for me today and I'm wearing a Panerai.

The PAM 347 is really the classic PAM 321 with a metal band. I'm a fan of the P 9000 movement ( in-house) and think you would enjoy the watch. That said, I do love Zenith as well ( excellent movements) and you cannot go wrong here. Does the Zenith have a metal strap? Not sure I have seen that watch with metal before.

The Zenith does have a metal strap yes. The face is just a lot busier than the Panerai so I'm concerned I'll not like it over the long run, which is why I'm leaning toward the Panerai, along with the in house movement.
