what happen with your PAM 318? What was wrong with the movement?

Used to be a big fan. But after the Pam 318 movement scandal broke out, felt betrayed by the brand. Never bought another since then, just hold on to my existing Panerais for now.

It's high fashion I guess. I do like their 1950 GMT models with 8 days power reserve.

Just wonder what all of you Rolex lovers think of the brand Panerai?

I am planning to take the plunge and get the PAM359. Two very different watche brand but each with there unique attraction.

How many of you are fans of both and why?
