Panerai Serviceing

Recommended Posts

Hi all

I am embarking on a new purchase. I have been away from the RWG for a long time and recently decided to purchase some new toys. Many moons ago I bought pieces from Eddie Lee and TDK, I still have one from Eddie, lasted 5 years but the movement is now playing up.

 

I am now looking at Pam's. I see they have come a long way over the last 5 years. I have read that the 7750 and 53 movements really need a good service when received from dealers.

 

My question is, has anyone had their watch serviced directly from dealer before sending the watch. I see some dealers are advertising this on their website . I know I could get a watch serviced after receiving it, but then It has to be shipped away again and more expense.

Guys, let me know your experience

 

Best regards

Simon

MD2020, thats interesting to know. I, and would guess others on the forum would certainly like to read a report on wether a service has been performed on a watch when paid for prior to being despached. This would give us more trust in the dealers.

I got some watches in the past that were 'serviced' by the dealer ... NOT! The only oil I found was in the easy accessible jewels. No way of telling they even used the correct oils.....There is no such thing as a dealer serviced watch. No Chinese watchmaker will give your a7750 a 4-5 hour overhaul (thats the time a trained watchmaker needs to properly service an a7750 ). They just take your money and say they did the service. It's a Chinese culture thing I have been told....
