the issue with Rolex is the popular sports models are literally impossible to find in ADs,

went to several ADs and there are literally no sport models except for the less popular models like Milligauss. How to buy like this? :s22: if i prefer not to buy from grey or second hand.

Rolex always no stock, even for datejust 41. Put on waiting list and wait. I too insist on not getting from grey.
Meanwhile i got myself an omega instead.

Just buy what you like and within your budget. Watch collection to most people is just a hobby and not an investment.

Even if you like the most common watch there is, wear it with pride cos it’s the one you have chosen!

I totally agree, I will highly not recommending buying Pam unless you really like the design and wearing the watch for LIFE. (You will learn the hard way when you try to trade in/ sell your watch)

You can easily google it, no one knows (including the management) what is Pam direction now?

It is Mass producing watches and flooding the market including the grey market with discount. (No longer as exclusive as before)

The slow death of Panerai

Panerai is dead?

If you are really still keen, head over to Jomashop (grey dealer)

Pam are easily 25% off, unlike shopping at the boutique.

Joma still ways away from 25%, more like 10% easy. Yet to find 25% easy across all models
Used maybe 30-50% down from retail

No need wear for life la.
If really need sell, sell cheap. Sure got takers if need.
No such thing as cannot sell.
As long you can tank.

Hi, i'm looking to purchase my first Seiko, a skx007j with the jubilee bracelet. Anyone has any suggestions for a good retail shop / online websites to buy from?

Thank you!

helped a fellow member/friend picked up this long awaited Tudor BB58 from Sincere Watches
got a solid discount too albeit a 4 months wait.
solid watch, they did well for this, very slim and the size is right.
