Pre owned Panerai

What's a good place to buy pre-owned Panerai?

LOL! I may trade my SD for a Panerai

Since there's a Rolex in the collection, don't need two Rolexes. The sport watch department can be covered by my Omega SMP.

Try www. paneristi.com
or www.panereh.com
For a brick & morter place, I think it is Van Rijk ( sp) in TO had some.
Louis Black in TO also had some in the window.

I was looking for one last year. Daren pointed me to a guy from NY who posts on the Panerai forum and he came highly recommended. Shoot Daren (dman) a PM. If anybody can point you in the right direction, it's him

V, if I can be of any help, let me know.

I have to warn you though, they are very addicting and not an easy thing to quit.

Email or PM with any questions at all bro.

For some reason, Panerais do not sit on the shelf for very long. I have checked watch stores online and they will have 20 Rolexes and no PAMs! I guess they make a LOT less in number than Rolex does per year?

Yeh doesnt Rolex make millions? I think Panerai makes between 35k - 40k of watches per year.... but still Rolex sells all they make too, which might be why there's so many used ones out there, everyone is trading up to new!

Thanks folks.

I did a FT on my SD and see if there are anyone that offers something that I like.

If not, I still keep the SD.

Not complaining at all. Loving every minute of them.
Have been fortunate enough to also pass 3 of them on to other Paneristis. So sharing the passion & still maintaining a reasonable stable.

You call that reasonable?

When does the 212 land?

If all goes well, it will be May 29th.
Deal is closing. Once the paperwork is signed, I will be heading to the AD

Any strap recommendations for the 212??
The OEM Carbon Fibre actually looks pretty good. Might just keep that one on it.

The OEM strap is great, also that one looks good on rubber and crocs. Like most Panerai, the options are endless.

With the fiddy case it also looks good on a CH or vintage type strap too.
