  1. I just read in todays paper about a Swede who bought 6 pairs of Nike shoes on his vaccation, all fake.

    While entering the country the customs stopped him, and informed Nike about this.

    Now this incident has gone to court, and probably the guy will pay for all expenses on both parties.

    Also mentioned in the article is that Denmark has zero tollerence in replicated gods.

    So if the Danish customs decided to check your package , maybe they confiscated it.

    Cut from the article:

    These rules apply:

    As a traveler, you will enter the counterfeit goods in Sweden that you:

    * paid a total maximum of 4300 SEK, if you traveled by charter flight or boat.

    * total payed maximum SEK 3,000, if you traveled in any other way. Keep the receipts!

    * not purchased for commercial purposes, ie for resale. This is assessed by customs personnel.

    Exceptions:

    * If Customs believes that there is a commercial goods can be stopped even if they cost less than the permitted amount.

    * Beware of where you travel between the lands of other countries. In some EU countries are much stricter rules than in Sweden.

    In Denmark there is a zero toll era of piracy, as officer of the watch on the Customs Service. Number, purpose and value of your inshoppade copies does not matter.

  3. So, as most of you guys I have to start out somewhere.

    This is my first Panerai and as I wasn´t sure if the model was something that would fit me, I thought that I might start out easy.

    So I asked Reg to source a "budget" PAM111 for me , and he succeded as always.

    The watch head is great quality but it might not be that accurate to the original.

    The strap on the other hand has a very cheap feeling on it, but that was expected with consideration of the cost of the watch.

    The deployant buckle is a little ruff, sharp on some edges and even abit hard to open and close. (maybe I can "wet sand" the edges and lube the "hinge")

    So please give me feedback and your thoughts, as I´m here to learn :D .

    (is it possible to mod the flaws that´s there, or should I get use to this one, and then look for a better version?)

    See pictures further down in this post

    Thanks for your time

  4. I usaually take mine off before I enter the AD.

    Once I forgott and the sales person noticed it, and wanted to have a look (I had my 3717 V3 without any other mods).

    He told me that IWC is a great brand and said that this was a real fine watch.

    Ended up talking about Breitlings for a while... real nice guy.
