Suggest a First Panerai?
#12
I would say the Pam 000 Base is a good choice for a first Panerai.
It has the 44mm Luminor case and only the hour and the minute hand. If you would like a second hand, take a look at the PAM 005 which is exactly the same as the PAM 000 but with a second hand at 9'o'clock

The next models in the line up are The PAM 112 and the PAM 111 which are the same as the PAM 000 and PAM 0005 respectively but with a sapphire caseback, sandwich dial and no logo on the dial. These models cost a bit more.

You can also go for the Radiomir models(the radiomir has a thin case, making it more suitable as a dress watch), the Radiomir base 210 and the Radiomir base logo 380.

PAM 380

All of these can be had used in the 4-5k region.
Good Luck

This has to be the best post of them all.
Everyone else please post pics.
I find it stupid to write "go with model # 144054564, who knows wtf it is?
especially when 90% of all Panerais look alike
