What a shame...
We all know the PVD'd Rolexes and other brands, but yes they did it, they transformed a beautiful 5711 into a black monstrosity, can't download the pics so here's the link, really a shame to mess up such a watch, and they did it to not 1 but 10 5711's On the bottom of the page you can click for a black 5980 or a black 5167, they probably have messed up more great Pateks but just the 5711 was enough, so the other 2 is really too much, can't look if they did it to other models other than these 3, can't believe people buy these horrors....chrono24/en/patekphil...-id4254325.htm
History of my 243
Gents, I am trying to find out about my watch. It is an I series 2006 243. Purchased by the original owner at Tourneau in N.Y back in Dec 2006. At some point in its life it has been PVD coated and when I purchased some time ago it was unworn. I am trying to establish where and when the PVD was applied. I will get some pictures up over the weekend.Hope someone can help.Cheers.
So how many straps is enough for one Panerai??
Curious how many straps is enough for a single Panerai watch????? As far as color and style, how many will cover all the looks from rugged casual, diving, to black formal?? I am starting with multiple buckle shapes and colors that will work into a strap system of different colors and textures. As much as passion leads to a strap purchase, I want to at least have a plan of attack to logically put together a system.

Satisfied with my current collection, will enjoy them for the years to come
Do People Buy New From ADs and then Sell for a Profit?
I ask this question because I am looking to buy a BLNR. My nearest AD helped me out recently dealing with a fake watch I got stuck with, so I wanted to do business with them on a new watch. But they don't have any in stock, so I also have been looking here in the classified forum for pricing info. One BLNR I saw had a msrp tag of $8,950, yet I see prices up to 10k. I guess this makes sense if the supply is so low and there is a lot of demand, but I was surprised that a used watch could cost me more than a new one, lol.
