MAHLER Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Thanks, Mahler. I suppose PT stands for Precious Time, not Pure Time, correct? PT = Precious Time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronus Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Resuscitation time again... EL's ad in Dealer Section says his papers for the PAM127 is copied from his original, which would explain the correct spelling. As for a picture of a genuine, a RWG2 member has recently bought a PAM091 and this was his scan of his guarantee card: Click for image of Guarantee Card This came from his topic I Stole My First Genuine Panerai. Hope that helps you sssurfer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasigi Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 This is what comes with EL's 127 and as Chronus says, Eddie says it's been scanned from his gen 127. It ties up with what PAMman says regarding the lack of the FIRENZE 1860 K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www_watch Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 I ordered the box set from Precious Time (PT). It also has the wrong spelling on the card. But to be honest..... WHO CARES??? IMHO the box with rubber strap, screwdriver and bezel protector alone is WELL WORTH the money. So I don´t give a F... about that wrong spelling. I only wanted some paperwork as an addition for taking some nice pictures. That´s all. And after all, I can´t say I didn´t know before. Because it´s easy to see on his pics in the dealers section that there´s a "D" instead of the "C" on the card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey take it easy, I don't care about the paperwork too much either, but it's always nice. This was a thread started by sssurfer, and I can understand why it would bother an Italian speaker. If it said PENERAI on the dial, wouldn't thought bother you? Everyone has their little bugbears with reps, and sometimes it's just about pointing out their flaws.

exper Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 (edited) Homer used to sell those on ebay for £4.99, might be worth a check. I have a set of papers too but I'll take everyone's word for it If someone would come up with some better quality papers I might go for it (well if you can, I could use a degree with a first too ) but as it stands it does not really bother me though I can imagine it bugging the hell out of ssurfer as its language.

Chronus Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 I was just saying it's probably more important for sssurfer as his first language is Italian. I know if I had something that said "CERDIFICATE" in English, it may bother me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Reviving this because of some new info. There is another card that can be found around: On a first look it looks correct -- but -- can you spot where it is uncorrect? | | | | | | | | | | | | V Look at the rightmost word. It spells 'PANERIA' instead of 'PANERAI'. Ugh, so another giveout! But -- wait a moment. What if I cut out part of the border? Here is the result: Does it look familiar? Yes, it is suspiciously similar to those three cards that could have been genuine: So... buyer beware! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Good idea cutting it out but then again there is still a Paneria in line - check it out! Wow, that's true! Thanks for pointing it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corgi Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Not an isolated incident... I personally find some of these misspellings quite amusing! Reading through the Mont Blanc pamphlet in French is quite amusing if you know the language... I also bought an Armani suit where the hang tang read "COLUR" These things make me chuckle...
