This is very sad news! Marcello was as kind as he was knowledgable. He always answered his PMs promptly and with just the information that you needed. I small miss he and his expertise greatly! RIP, my friend!

RIP maestro. You've left a big void in the worldwide community.......

Hope Marcello advises Him on timing and general watchmaking style, up there. Soooo sad. Heartfelt condolences to the family!

Thoughts and prayers to the family. Godspeed Marcello

The loss of a font of knowledge to the watch world, but more important, the loss of a man to his family.

Sincere condolences to his family..

RIP Marcello. You helped guide me years ago and always answered my PMs when I needed assistance. My condolences to the family. Be assured Marcello is in good hands.

Just the sentiments alone, the outpouring within this thread, are a testament to all people Mr. Pisani affected in a very, very positive way.
Rest in Peace

okthenor · 23 June 2015, 03:36 PM

Terrible news. His expertise will be sorely missed.

Storky · 23 June 2015, 10:18 PM

Such sad news. Marcello quickly responded to several queries I had on this forum with his vast knowledge and expertise. He will be missed by all.....

nickb732 · 23 June 2015, 10:39 PM

Could we ask the mods to give him some recognition by modifying his signature? I think it would be a great tribute to one who has helped so many.

Agreed. I also don't think it's appropriate to appropriate his avatar pic, but that's just my view.

Agreed. Every time I saw someone using his avatar pic I thought it was him posting and that this whole thing was just some kind of cruel prank...

DiamondJack · 25 June 2015, 07:11 AM

That is terribly sad news.

Marcello was a true gent and an incredibly knowledgeable watch aficionado. He was also one of a kind as, with great knowledge, doesn't always come the willingless to share. Marcello was a real teacher and his willingness to educate and help us all in our quests, whatever the level, was quite incredible. I regularly sought his counsel when acquiring new vintage pieces and Marcello was always eager to share and advise thoughout these journeys. I will miss him and am still struggling to come to terms with this sad news.

Marcello.... RIP my friend......

JerimiahLee · 25 June 2015, 09:26 PM

A great mentor and friend was lost. Ciao Marcello.

eparisini · 26 June 2015, 05:31 PM

So, it seems I'm the only italian on the Rolex Vintage Forum, I miss my Friend and "Mentore" Marcello. We were friends since over 10 years...
RIP

RIP

Actually I'm there too but I very rarely post as I'm not a collector and I don't consider myself an expert.

(Post #89 in this thread, BTW)
