Listed as a Pam homage, does not sound like he is trying to pass it off as a gen Panerai.

Homage is such a nice, sweet sounding word. Sounds a lot better than FAKE.

That's irrelevant - PAM 372 should have never been in the title, it's called keyword spamming.

Helps when you post the actual auction, not a copy and paste of the description. From what you posted I see no issue, wouldn't buy it, but seller is not trying to get over on anyone by passing off some POS for something it isn't.

Apologies, I thought I posted a link to the auction, but it was before my 2nd cup of coffee, so I mistakenly posted a wrong link . Here is the auction:

I agree Greg. This seller is not playing by the rules.
