Incoming!

Just picked up a DJ41 from a local AD after exchanging a Panerai that I bought 2 months ago. I had to send the PAM (twice) for particles on the dial. After receiving it back the second time, not only did they not address the particle, but they added more! I thought about sending it back a third time, but I just could not deal any more with the brand for the time being. I explained what happened and my AD was incredibly accommodating and agreed to take the watch back in exchange for this DJ41 that just came in. I absolutely love this watch!

Congrats and love the dial! Just as impressive, sounds like you got a good local AD who's willing to work with you to ensure your satisfaction.

Looks great!

Many (including me) prefer smooth bezel with Oyster and fluted with Jubilee, but your combination looks great! I like it!

I love Panerai, it’s just so unfortunate that my introduction to the brand was such a frustrating one. I’m sure I’ll revisit it someday. When that time comes, I’ll bring a loupe!

My family has been doing business with them for the better part of a decade and they have been nothing but amazing!

Shame about the customer service you got from Panerai as that was clearly the watch you wanted, but you have picked up a good DJ to replace it. Enjoy and wear in good health.
