Hello,

it would be great to get some feedback on a PAM356, which I am currently considering purchasing.

I have no pressing reason to believe that this is a fake but thought to run it through experts here too :)

Thank you for any advice.

Just the watch, no papers? If you really want to know if it's real, Just have it check at the Service Center. Sometimes the pictures can deceive you. So it is better to have it check.

The watch does come with a (empty) warranty card and COSC cert. However, these items also can be faked.

I don't think an AD will have much interest in checking for authenticity for a P2P sale.

Any other opinions based on the pictures provided?

Ask for movement pictures.
Without it you can't be 100% sure.
Alternatively you can have panerai authenticate it for a fee.

Looks sketchy, they are so easy to fake

Looking at the movement is great.

However, I personally do not open my watches when selling if they come with box and papers - good question to ask the seller but I'd be surprised how many would agree to that.

The problem with having Panerai authenticate is that this would only happen post sale.

Looks sketchy due to the vast amount of fakes out there or do you mean that this particular watch looks sketchy?

If this particular watch, why and which parts?
