i just about laughed my ass off when the strap thing was brought up. put an (aftermarket) bracelet on a rolex and see what that gets you in the rolex world. you will be told you ruined you rolex by putting someone else's junk on it. the panerai guys only think it is ok if the elders do it. a new guy hasn't got a chance over there. :roll:

Hey boys, you can´t do that to them. :twisted:
They spent a lot of money to make themselves feel like an elite. Then you go there and tell them it is no big deal, the watches that make them fell as the elite are just watches and everybode can get a timepiece that most people would concider to be just the same thing.
They don´t really care that someone might steal the design of a Panerai, most of them are not really offended by the fact that the design of a Panerai is copied and therefor the rights of the Richemont group are offended and Richemont may even loose money because the sell less watches. Of course the claim that.
The feel offended by the fact that their status symbols they got themselves to look like people who don´t have to care for money are just no proof that they belong to the big guys.
Funny story, really entertaining!
