This is the one that stuck out to me:

38) Panerai Vintage 3646 California Dial with 17 Jewel Rolex movement in excellent condition. $103,000

Not only because of th price, but what it is and who is selling it. The seller is a known rep guy and he has made it very clear that he has made and is still making 1:1 3646 cases. His personal one also has the Cali dial. That being said, the movement may be faked too, but even if not, it's certainly not a $100,000 movement.

Watches24seven is a well known rep guy, or is he selling it on consignment?

...and no pics of the most expensive watches?

Thing that stands out to me is the $6500ish compass. Please. A fully functional compass can be made for $2.... how is this soooo much better??

AFAIK, watches24seven is 100% legit. I can tell you that all of the pics there are actual gen watches (you'll notice the 3646 doesn't have a picture). He sells alot on the gen forums, so I have no reason to expect that any of those watches are reps. That was what prompted my question to tootall.

Sorry for any confusion. I have no doubt that the other watches listed on his site are gen. He is known over at the gen boards pretty well.

I was merely stating that I would not ever buy a 3646 from him, since he admitted to making the parts 1:1 for a few people for personal 3646's. That's all.

I didn't know that. Interesting. I agree with you, no way I'd buy it.
