Hey folks. Im planning my next Panerai purchase and I'm hoping to make a move near the end of the summer. I want a white dial really bad! Im torn between the 113 and 114. I really like them both and even though the difference is basically only a seconds hand, Im still torn between the two. Any input, perspective, or pics would be greatly appreciated. Keep in mind I already have a 111 and its yearning for a roommate.

thx

If you already have a Historic Pam 111...wouldn't you like to have something different for the white dial.
I never thought I would like any of the Panerai Chronos... but that white dial on Pam 251 is really a great look.
Quite a difference in price but the Daylight is hard to pass up.
White dial with the green lume hands and hour markers...sweeeet,
I'd rather have a pre-owned 251 than either the 113 or 114...I'm not a fan of the minature numbers dials.

I never dealt with watchuwant...they are in Hollywood FL. area ...recently I was in Koosh Jewelers at The Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood FL...the owner there was showing me some U-Boats ( which I didn't like at all ) he suggested watchuwant for Panerai.... he said, "they have a good dealer reputation... they sell a lot of Panerai new and pre-owned and you can bargain with them".
They have large selection on the website and look legit, but I couldn't say for sure since I have no personal experience.

I never considered a Chrono either...until somebody showed me that 251 ...when you see it in the right light...thats an awesome watch.
White dial with all the green lume hands & lume dot hr. mks.
Daylight, yea thats the way to go for white dial...unless you got $$$ for Slytech.

The Pam 111 was a good choice...Pam 251 Sub type dial in white, is the perfect contrasting match, IMO.

I had a PAM250, and I like the 251 for a white dial alternative. I had a PAM114, and I liked it as well, but for some reason, I just don't like the white dialed Panerais that much. The watch gets boring after a while, which I don't find with the black dials as much. But if you are set on a white dial, I think they are all great... just remember its harder to match straps with the 251 than the 113/114.
