First Panerai, 1090 vs 1312
Hi guys! Looking to purchase my first Panerai and got it down to either the 1090 or 1312. I tried both at my local AD and can't decide. I was hoping I can get some insight from you guys/owner exxperiences. Also, the AD offered me 15% off the price; is that a good discount for these two models?Thanks guys!
