Pam320 Authentic?

So I just received my first Panerai which is the pam320 from Jomashop and I still have doubts about the authenticity without a warranty card. Anyone else here bought from Jomashop?
I have to remove the serial no so I have to blur it out. Serial No. matches the box, not sure if it matters.

Thanks.

Looks legit. Pams are also heavy, it should have some heft. Do a lume test, it should glow bright and for a while. Also, did it come with the case guard? The guard should be a soft plastic, almost like a rubber plastic feel.

Yes it does have the guard and it glows in the dark.

It did have the manual. I think the one missing is the certificate.

looks good to me too. All the screws are in the right location. The cutting of the screws is also legit. The fake one will have bad cutting.

Looks good to me, but Ik fakes are crazy good, Ik shops that don't even take them in even with box and papers!

I'm not seeing any reflags in the photos. Feeling the crown guard would be an in person test you can do.

They don't have cards since 2008 I believe. Look for the stamp in one of the booklets. Looks legit and jomashop has been selling for a long time now.

I bought few watches from jomashop, authenticwatches, and watchmaxx. They will not provide manufacturer's warranty, but rather their shop warranty. That's the only difference, otherwise all authentic.

I find it quite worrying that even with a clear back one would still doubt an authenticity of a PAM.

I bought two new PAMs from the OP boutique here in Singapore in July last year. As well as the boxes, straps, tools, etc., each watch came with an instruction book and a certificate book. They're both the same size and they fit in the bottom of the box, although the instruction manual is thicker. I did not get a warranty card. I can't speak for all Panerais but my 359 and 689 did not come with a card, just the two books with each one.

Check back in about ten weeks and I'll let you know if my next one comes with a card
