I’m definitely your man here. I’m wearing my 915 as we speak and own the white Quaranta.

I have thoughts after owning both for over two years.

I picked up the 1371 because I figured it would be a nice “office PAM,” if you will - and it is. Slides under a cuff for a less dressy day at the office perfectly, the brown calf and black alligator straps it comes with both work beautifully, and it goes with myriad other straps of varying materials.

So, I like the 1371 just fine and it definitely suits its purpose. A few years on, however, I find myself rocking my 915, 1321, 42mm 973 and 1223 far more frequently.

I like the 1371 for what it is, but it sits in a weird niche in my watchbox. If I’m gonna rock a casual watch at the office, may as well be a Sea-Dweller (my favorites) or my 915, right?

I am a fan of my Quaranta, but if putting my PAMs in order of favorite to least favorite, it comes in 5th of 5.

No disrespect to the 1371, I’m glad I own it, but if I were making tougher cuts, others would stay before it did.

If you can find it at the right value, 100m wr, PAM DNA, but no hacking function, it’s an enjoyable, comfortable watch.
