What is the difference between a pam 347 and a pam 321. They seem identical except for the production numbers and bracelet.
pam 321 1000 made (£600 cheaper than pam 347)
pam 347 300 made (comes with a bracelet)

Am I better off getting the pam 347 due to low production number?
Does that imply good resale value?
Is the price difference due to the bracelet alone?

I would really appreciate some info.

will post some pics of the watch when i get it.

Firstly, hello and welcome

You actually answered your own question, the watches are identical aside from the bracelet on the 347. There is no mystery to this. The production numbers you quote are for one year only of manufacture, there are and will be yet more of both models. http://www.panerai.com/s_page.xpd?id_li ... goria=9035

Bracelet models can always have straps fitted as an option, though you'd need to buy a buckle too. Both are regular production watches so unlikely to become rare and sought after, and therefore will loose money initially like any luxury goods product. Over time, if you keep it long enough, regular price increases may see it become worth close to what it cost you, if it is still in pristine conditon.

If you are focussed on the 347, then try and blag a strap and buckle from the dealer as freebies, then you have the best of both worlds. If you plan a strap collection anyway, just buy the 321 and save some money.

Many thanks.
I got the 321 fyi.
Took lots of pics, dont know if anyone wants to see them.
I love this watch, the perfect combination of a simple face with just the right amount of clutter.....so to speak.
