This look mighty cheap for a brand new Panerai.

That's not a Panerai. Looks like an "homage" to a Panerai. It says in the auction "Not made by Panerai".
Did i say Panerai enough? :lol:
I am not sure of the exact origin of the watch though. I am sure someone will chime-in on this.

He probably removed Panerai from the watch with photoshop on the pic,he must make good money by selling REPS on Ebay,Strange that Ebay hasn't pulled the plug on his business.
If he hadn't put the REG TM crown on, then this would be hard for Panerai to attack. As it is, this counts as a rep and a trademark infringement.
Yes, he`s selling reps of reps :lol:
It`s a so called homage-watch. You can order it without having to fear of customs, because its unbranded (no Panerai engravings on the watch).
But the guy is way too expensive, Davidsen (a dealer here) offers it much cheaper.
Just have a look for "New MM20" in Davidsen`s offers in dealer section here, its 330$.

Edit: Oops...Pugwash is right, the crown guard may cause problems.

This guy is easily doubling his money with everyone of these he sells and I am sure plenty of people have tried to Out him. considering how many he has sold.
The watch this guy advertises is a $175.00 watch like Josh's vintage versions with a undecorated Asian movement.
Davidsens watch for over $100 less is far superior to the watch in question.

Hey buddy, had you been around here for a little while you would have realized this.
We all learn something new everyday.. right?
Dont let this scare you away, we're all friends here. Welcome to the club. :wink:
Asian movement, too. Not a great deal for a 127 knock-off with a mineral crystal, Asian movement and no SuperLume. :wink:

defiantly not me, that makes it a 25.00 watch that you can buy all day long.
i bought on of these for my wife to wear working in the yard and she has been beating the crap out of it for about 10 months. it looses about 5 seconds per month and keeps time better than any rep i have. its tough as a brick. hers has the normal number markers on the dial and the lume is as good as my invicta.

If i buy a REP,it has to be the closest it can be from the original,so the brand name has to be on it.
