  1. With all the issues many of the sellers are facing with their websites and litigations, is anyone concerned that they will attempt to go after us next? I am a noob in the replica world and maybe this has gone on before but it seems to be getting worse... I know the sellers on the forum are reputable but if the court wants names and addresses, it doesn't matter.

    Is there anyone concerned about this out there?

  2. Hey All

    Just bought the new PAM 026k because I simply love it. Always loved Panerai and although I have a few of the usual suspects this one caught my attention instantly.

    Question being - do any of you wear a lefty on your left wrist? Not sure if it's going to look off with the crown on the wrong side.

    Any wrist pics of said configuration?

    Cheers

    I don't have any pictures but I actually find it more comfortable! The CG doesn't dig into my hand when I'm doing stuff! :good:

  3. How is the quality of the new rep of the PAM 026? I know when new reps first come out, they can be a bit shotty... does anyone have this rep? I think it's really cool and am interested in it but I don't want a POS!

  4. It's not about the price for me.

    The service is more important. What happens if customs grabs it, or it gets lost in the mail or is dead on arrival.

    Most of my reps have come from Josh/pc8838 and on top of not having to worry about the above, he knows what he is talking about when I ask questions about certain reps.

    I don't care about 30-60$ difference ..... it's moot if you have a problem, and the seller doesn't back you up.

    just my thoughts

    :)

    I completely agree with you about the seller, I was just considering sellers who have favorable reviews (I could have just said that... :bangin: )

    Have you ordered a UPO from Josh? I just tried to go to his site and it's down but maybe I'll contact him and see what he says. Thanks!

  5. I know the answer most given to this question and I totally believed it until recently. At most of the associated sellers sites (PT Swiss, Connie, Andrew, etc.), they all have right around the same price for an Ultimate Planet Ocean with the 45.5 bezel and the link bracelet. Then, I went to Tony's site (Asian7750) and his price was $238, $60 less than the other sites. As far as I can tell, it's the same watch!

    So, I'm totally going to be "that guy" ( :p ) and ask where is the best place to buy a UPO with the big bezel? Where have you guys bought yours? I don't mind spending the $300 that most other places charge if it's for a better watch but if it's the same thing, I'll take the $238 price tag and have some money left over to spend on another watch.

  6. The forum should have a few reviews for Tony, I have purchased multiple items from him without issue, great service, sweet prices :)

    His prices are really good! :thumbsupsmileyanim: Now I need to get his e-mail address!

  7. I was going to try Tony out, but unless I missed a discount...seems Tony jacked up the price to $198.00...capitalism is alive and well in asia :D...plus EMS these guys are all charging is like $30 to US

    $218 for the 177 now... I read on another thread that if you e-mail him directly, he'll work with you.

  8. The 005, 177 and 219 come from a factory that got the crystal right. The 111 has a darker crystal with blue AR that's not very good.

    I have the 005, 177 and some 111 for parts. The 005 and 177 you can wear without any mods.

    Thanks for the heads-up. I guess if I want one with a polished case, I'll do the 005.

  9. Is PureTime "the better" dealer of who is listed? I sent three e-mails to them and didn't get a response for a single one... kind of turned me off from them. :(

    I was ready to buy the 177 but was informed it is out of stock at the moment with Connie and Andrew. Hopefully I'll be able to decide soon! :lol:

  10. Panerai enthusiasts;

    I'm in the market for a Panerai rep but I cannot decide on one. Each time I think I've decided, I change my mind... then when I was ready to buy one, there are none in stock! :wounded1:

    Which model should I get... the 111, 177, or 219? I know the differences, part of the problem is I want them all!!!!!! But after I buy this one, I'm going to have to wait a while until I can afford another watch.

    HELP!! :shock:
