To Cartier or To Panerai

To give some context, the Cartier is a quartz watch and costs the same (100 difference) while the Panerai is automatic - but I love watches for the look - so which looks better on me? ๐Ÿ˜„ thank you for helping me with my vanity ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘

The cream dial with the rose gold hands are magnificent and with the red leather strap it's a perfect combination. I love the small secounds on 9 o'clock, i think that the 38 mm are not to big for your wrist as today in the modern time more women are wearing a little larger Watches. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Agree the red strap was what caught my eye then in person the dial was hard to resist. The SA was only too happy to let me think about it for a couple of days, she wasn't pushy and was very considerate and patient (which makes it even harder to resist). And I do have an affinity to bigger watches. Plus I feel a bit off spending that much for just a quartz for the Cartier๐Ÿ™ˆ

Voted the Cartier - looks better on you imho. The Panerai seems to be suffering from overhanging lugs (at least in this pic). And I like the Cartier's case better. Apparently, the name is not derived from 'bath tub' but from the enclosed VIP section in the opera house...

You make a very good point, that I didn't really see. Thanks for that! ๐Ÿ‘Œ I'll probably try both a few more times. Just to really be sure..

I think that you already have enough divers in your collection. Quartz or not, the Baignoire exudes class, and it would complement your Alhambra perfectly!
