Rolex and Panerai
I'm really excited that we now have both a Panerai and Rolex forum here. Last month I bought a Rolex Daytona and only recently have been adding a few Panerai's to my collection. So now, I am starting to see parallels between the two Companies. There are a number of things that might be worth discussing. I've heard Panerai mentioned as the next Rolex. But, specifically, I'm wondering whether the Zenith movement in the Daytona is a good indication that all of the third-party movements in Panerai watches are going to become even more in demand in the near future (not counting the ETA based movements). I'm thinking of the 163 and the 190. After I bought my Daytona, I started searching for a Zenith Daytona. To my surprise, Zenith Daytona's are not that easy to find and those that are available are commanding a pretty good premium from what I can tell searching on the internet. I'd appreciate your thoughts from all the Rolex and Panerai fans here.
Thanks,
Greg
