I think at the end of the day, there are only standings on a personal level and on the market value level. Anyone can give any ranking on a personal level. But for a market level, the standing for the 5 would be Rolex, Panerai, IWC or Omega, Breitling. Panerai is not so consistent on the used market as some models ( the brevettatos and the marina militare) fetch a very hefty price tag whilst others (historic and contemporary range) fetch a good price depending on the season and demand. The chrono, regattas and the smaller models dont do very well in the market. This is my experience as I was selling my collection to fund for grails. Just my few cents.

Look wise, Pam definitely stand out among these 5. of course there are some people who dont agree. Just like some people insisted that rollie look ugly and old biscuit. anyway, pam is popular cult now. Dont think it will be out of market that easily. of course, i do have some reservations on its own movement, especially those with grand complications.

i agreed with gmac that resell market wise, its not consistent yet. been that done there for more than 5 years, i wont hesitate to sell my pam now.
