What is everyone's opinion about buing a 195 pvd from Andrew or Josh? I intended to buy one from Davidsen, but we don't seem to agree on prefered payment method, so i will probably have to check somewhere else. Everyone's opinion would help.

if you want a PVD watch, theres no way around Davidsen.

i had other shiny PVD before ( from TWP ) - looked like shit.

out of the box, DSN has the best pvd... any other pvd Panerai seem to be a shinier black coating.... and idea though is to send it to RBJ and let him pvd it for you...

i have a shiny pvd case from a cartel dealer and i am thinking of doing that....

cartel dealer went from being an insult to just part of the vernacular around here... not a big deal anymore...

The problem is that i am located in Greece, so it would not be that easy.

Greece is a paradise for replicas and anything else coming from outside Europe.
I route almost all my purchases through Greece and then to the place I live = 100% success rate.
Costs a couple of Euro shipping extra but from the packages I had to order directly to the place I live, every other got stuck in customs.
And this my friend is costly !!!

BTW, I picked up my order from Andrew in Greece two weeks ago when I went there for Easter ;-)

Well. i haven't purchased a rep before, so i am a bit afraid of the Customs. i mean, receiving the watch from Hong-Kong., sending it to another country, then receiving it back might be risky. Again, i say that i think greek Customs have no idea that Panerai even exists, but i would like to see how it will be with my first purchase and then try more complicated things.
