My first Panerai! Pam312
I was a little puzzled between picking up a 312 vs 372. This being my every day watch, I decided to go with the 312. I prefer the rubber strap on the 312 and the date. It's a nice wear, just find it to be a little top heavy at times... Slowly but surely i'm starting to fall in love with the Panerai SubmersiblesAny recommendations where I can get it cleaned? I'm located in NYC

Rolex Submariner Vs. Explorer II (First Rolex Watch)
Hello Everyone,I have a dilemma I hope you can help me with. It takes me a LONG time to research and make up my mind when I purchase something so I hope you experts can provide some guidance in which direction I should go in purchasing my first Rolex.I have always wanted a Submariner but I was doing a little research and I am actually tempted in buying the Explorer II. I know the the general differences like what they both were made for but I really don't know what one would be the best in overall quality and ruggedness. I enjoy swimming and I am always doing outdoor activities so I need something that will hold up. I heard the Sub bezel is somewhat fragile and the Exp's bezel is stationary so basically what I am wanting to know is what watch would involve the least amount of work/maintenance over a lifetime? I have found a Sub (no date) but I heard it was not cosc certified. Is that something to worry about?Also, I am going to buy a pre-owned Rolex so I need some suggestions on some q

After looking at every Rolex model, the best one is!
I can't figure it out. Please post your favorite model.
