PAM585
Love the nautical set of instruments Panerai made. PAM 582, 583, 584 and this one. Wish I had the funds to install them in my little boat...

I'd say one or two of each is the best course

Nowadays I navigate with an old iPad and on it an app called navionics which is surprisingly accurate. So accurate I even trust it. Having said that; I never leave port without old fashioned (paper) maps.
