Help me decide which 40mm Luminor

A couple of Panerai questions for you Panerai wearers!

Greetings!

It may be more than a couple of questions! I've never owned a Panerai and the AD is about 115 miles from me so there's that.

So I'm looking at a watch, a Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta 40mm PAM1372. Something like this:
