I am not a Rolex fan but considering that the Pam111 houses an ETA 6497-2 with modified bridges, it can't compare in my eyes to an in-house as the Rolex Submariner.
I find those Pam/ETA way overpriced and IMO you should expect that they will loose value with time since Paneraï goes in-house for the movements.
Keep your sub or exchange it for a Pam312 for example if you can do the balance...


While I tend to agree with you in regards to the overpriced ETA movement aspect, I feel that the Panerais with those movements could possibly become more collectible in the future. As far as trading in on an in-house, The problem I run into are the ones I like have a tendency to be a bit prohibitively expensive. I'm pretty fond of the 372 and 422.
