GO is pretty special but I've always tried them on and can't get past of the thickness of their Pano line up

I get it..

I just can't get past the beauty and design of those movements and that Panodate is delicious. Is their a house at any price point that makes a better date? Each digit is on it's own plane and the cycle is instant. I'll carry a little extra heft for that level of detail.

What's crazy is you can still get a SeaQ Panodate with a pretty decent discount. That puts it's price very close to a Sub. Now I love the Submariner and understand it's investment advantage, but when you compare the horological value of those two side by side, it's not even close. The GO is on a whole different level.

imvestment advantage of luminova submariners is greatly overestimated.

I not only agree with Foo but think if the scarcity issue is resolved his opinion will become painfully more apparent--

I find all of the Pano series to be very attractive watches; same plane date display is very well done and even better than Lange. The Panograph's 4! jewel caliber 61 is spectacular and a visual treat--for a look:

As compared to? Pano Lunar only about 2mm thicker than a Lange 1 moon phase (12.1 vs 10.2), about same thickness as a Sub or Datejust

Just pulled the trigger on a PanoReserve after a year of YouTube "research".

Very happy about it.

For the price of a Sub or Portugieser, I get to enjoy high horology features like hand-finishing, beveling, gold chatons, and hand decorations.

GO is not for people who aim for investment/resell, but damn is it a bargain for people who want a cool watch.
