Thanks everyone for the advice.

Over here, the grey market for panerai is small. There is very little demand for panerai.

For example, I won’t be able to find a 1033 or 1616 in grey market. So either go to AD or Boutique. And those boutique only e.g 995,997,998 and 999, I can only find them in boutique.

I prefer to deal with AD or boutique as well. I will try to talk to the sales rep. If still no deal, then I should not waste my time and money on building an expensive relationship with them. I might end up getting the 422 from my AD with good discount to offset the premium I am going to pay for 968!
