Yeah relax, i still cant believe that some people are genuinely upset about this. Its not like the AD will call his network of special agents who will immediately shut down everything we love lol. I believe that the gen companies know more about reps then we do. Anyways, someone walking in with a rep wont make the difference is my belief. And also please remember that we put all our secret rep stuff including high res pics on a forum for everyone to read.
:facepalm: That's not the point!
For starters, it's rude. Would you park a kit car Ferrari on the dealer's forecourt?
Secondly it's poking the bear in his own den. If the piece is noticed it is going to piss off the AD whether he says anything or not. A pissed off AD is more likely to lobby Panerai to "do something about these fakes".
Of cause they know we exist, they have account here the same as Richmont, Hublot, the Swiss Watch Authority Anti Counterfeiting Committee and no doubt many others. However rubbing their nose in it and increasing awareness amongst those who can influence these people into tighter controls is not a good idea.
Panerai are a very big bear indeed and bear baiting is not a healthy sport consistent with long life. Please, don't poke the bear.
