Where to buy AP?
New member and so glad i found this site. I have been looking at getting an AP and have finally chosen the RO 15400 in pink gold, white dial with brown strap. This is my problem, I live in Maine and no one sells AP or really anything besides Rolex. I have been looking online on where to buy. I have found pricing a little all over the place from retail pricing to a few thousands lower. I have called a few sellers and have mixed feelings. Can anyone recommend a place that they fell they have been treated fairly? I have a few things to consider, first I would rather pay a little more but get great customer service, second if I can avoid sales tax that would be great and lastly I don't want to pay retail.any and all advice is greatly appreciated!Cheers

bumble bee question
i have recently come across an AD with this watch, which i have always found interesting, while on vacation.having never purchased an AP before, i was wondering if soomeone could provide just a very ballpark range on discounts that might be typically extended on this model?i am also curious on thoughts around whether purchasing a display model of this watch would be a dealbreaker for you - every high end watch i have purchased has been a boxed piece 'from the back' but in this case there is only a single piece at this AD.thanks in advance for any help!

I get that this probably the closest to what is considered the classic Panerai piece.Please indulge me with the same question but with more specific criteria and your opinions. First off, I own the watches listed in my signature. I am looking for something different. This puts the Submersible or GMTs as being a redundant pieces for me and it also means I want nothing on a bracelet. When I think of Panerai I definitely want a leather strap. I am looking for something around 44 to 45mm, costing between 5-8k (obviously stainless steel), and would prefer hand wound as opposed to automatic. I am on the fence if I want to go Radiomir or Luminor. I know I could plug these criteria into the website and get a list of options but I am looking for expert opinions and reasons. My first three watches were must owns for me, this
