I know how to buy a Rolex online, but have never purchased a PAM.

So, specifically who was the seller of your PAM and do you recommend the seller to others?

leopardprey · 30 November 2008, 12:01 PM

I use a Grey Dealer from Florida, who is very reliable and a good man. Not really a Grey Dealer, cause he gets you Panerais with your name on the warranty card, that he buys at reduced rates from Panerai ADs in Europe. Send me a PM if you would like his contact info.

Hi Mark,

I bought from Hamilton Jewelers at the PGA mall in Palm Beach Gardens.

No discount, but the salesman threw in a free strap with purchase. They were also able to do a quick search online of the other Hamilton AD's and transfer watches that they didn't currently have in stock. If you would like salesman's name shoot me a PM.

TswaneNguni · 30 November 2008, 02:42 PM

Bought all mine from ADs.Less 10% dicount and at the pricing,before the April increase.

Those were they days,when stocks were overvalued and watches were cheap !!

argee1977 · 30 November 2008, 08:54 PM

Grey dealer and an AD.

mike · 2 December 2008, 10:01 AM

The same AD both times.

ohsixx · 2 December 2008, 10:20 AM

You guys are wasting a lot of money!!!

dman · 2 December 2008, 03:38 PM

AD's, Grey market, other Paneristi. Just always do due diligence and buy the seller not the watch. MHO.

Vito_Corleone · 3 December 2008, 03:52 AM

I buy secondhand, it's so much cheaper that way.

Defiancekofb · 5 December 2008, 01:55 PM

I got a BNIB from a local Paneristi member. I bought my 240, for basically 24% of the MSRP. My first grey market purchase, I will be the first to admit, it feels very good to purchase a watch with a high percentage of savings on the sale price.

Has anyone bought from watches24seven.com?

I've met Bruce/BigB and he is a stand up guy! He also hosted a large Panerai GTG just this year. He is very close to where I live.

His prices are higher, but you are getting a GREAT seller and great watches.

toph · 7 December 2008, 02:39 AM

AD, definitly recommended

He's got the 104 advertised at 4915.00 plus shipping. Seems like a good price, is that too much?

One from a friend, one from an AD near Daren ( thanks Bro) and the rest from my local AD.

For BNIB it is good. Check on timezone and paneristi if you want used. You can get some deals, but not BNIB typically.

So, buying from Bigb/Bruce is completely safe???
