cursto Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 Greetings all,I have had the misfortune of dealing with this scumbag at http://www.strap-source.com/What a douche. This guy sells FAKE Panerai straps and deployants out of Irvine, Ca. claiming they are "overstock". He charges $300.00 for an alligator strap. Cheap made junk you can purchase on Ebay or Aliexpress all day long. He also goes by Monarchy, Inc and watchbandsource, watch-band-source. Avoid at all costs.

seafoam Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 You can tell just by looking at that crap that the straps aren't oem. They look like there made from rat skin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Yes I took a look, one was a rep strap so obvious it was glaring. Matter of fact I think I have one of those pieces of crap around! Cursto I guess thanks for posting but he would not catch many from the rep boards with his crap.

panerai153 Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 I believe I bought one of these a couple of years back. What I saw on the website was definitely not what I got!!Thanks to the noob for posting, always good to get feedback especially about someone who is selling Mis- represented goods.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UmpaHimself Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 I asked him a few questions about the straps. I also asked if I could come check them out since I live less then an hour away. "We don't have them here, we drop ship." Ok, thanks, bye.

gasebah Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) I ask myself how these operations can exist in the US. In Germany a prosecutor would shut these down in a minute with them having a legit address and everything.

gasebah Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 Any competitor in Germany could send them a cease and desist declaration with a penalty. They would have to cover all cost for this. If they don't sign it goes to court immediately and they would be in a world of trouble with fraud, compensation for damages and what have you.
