Where can I buy a decent rep Panerai box?

[Epimetheus]

I´m looking for one or two rep Panerai boxes for my watches.

Are these boxes available anywhere else?
http://www.aobobuy.com/PaneraiBox-01-9369.html

Have anyone bought a rep box from Aobobuy?
If yes, how was the quality?

Aoobuy is good for boxes. I've ordered stuff from them.

There are 2 versions of rep box.

The first version which is totally off have a gold push button at the box front to open it. The hinges are also off as gen panerai box only have polished silver hinges and there is no push button to open the box.

Second version is closer to the gen as the push button is removed and it has silver hinges.

does aobobuy offer these 2 different versions?

i know that puretime and sillix both sell pretty accurate versions with the silver hinges, and sillix is cheaper than aobobuy (robbie) after the shipping. also i read that puretimes is the most accurate and best version.

I was just looking for some pam boxes the other day, so i have done a lot of research.

I'll be waiting for the new style PAM boxes before I order one. BTW replica make has all the boxes and they're $88 + free ems shipping

I have this box from aobobuy, it´s not bad for the price, it comes with a rubber strap included...But don´t think that it´s similiar toi the gen case, everything is different... I will give mine to a friend as a birthday present ...

 

[Epimetheus]

Thanks everybody!
I´ll check out Puretime and Silix.

By the way, do any one know something about this? http://www.timesshop.net/product.php?id_product=898
I was thinking of ordering some Promotion Subs at the same time saving some time and money on the shipping.

Here´s the Silix box: http://www.silix-prime.com/panb002-p-2384.html

Here´s the Puretime box: http://www.puretimewatch.com/product/panerai-box-and-papers/

I guess that it´s to expensive to buy at Timesshop?

 

[Epimetheus]

How about this one?

that one on ebay is just a rep and overpriced.
there is some good information in this thread.
thanks

But it´s only $10 more then Puretime´s box.
And it looks exactly the same.
+ It´s already in the EU.

So far the Puretime-box is the cheapest correct looking box, then after that the Ebay-box, correct looking but $10 more expensive.

Are there any other alternatives out there?

AoBo is the best place for boxes. They sell both models of the boxes, but you never know which you're going to get. I got one with gold hardware, and one with silver. They're both awesome.
There's a review of his boxes here. There's no reason to go anywhere else. His prices are the best, even after the expensive shipping.

Thanks.
I´ll order some boxes right after CNY and check their quality.
They sure look good!

robbie is very hit and miss

I have bought quite a few things off him, and he makes alot of mistakes - eg wrong item, wrong size, faulty goods...

I would pay a bit extra and use a trusted dealer

 

[jrodshibuya]

Approximately how much is shipping? I've filled out an order, and it said estimated shipping was $0, which sound a bit low

 

[MrYesterday]

His shipping is a little high (still much cheaper than other dealers with their shipping included). I've found it's a lot cheaper to hold off until I have a few things I want to buy. Then it's not so significant.
He'll send you an invoice within a couple of days.

its unfortunate that all the replica boxes i've seen have the "Firenze " Text underneath Officine Panerai, while the gen only says Officine Panerai

Um, some gen boxes do say "Firenze" on the plaque.

 

[jrodshibuya]

Thanks Mr Yesterday. I think I'll wait and buy a few boxes. It's kind of odd though, since he says that shipping is by weight, bulk ordering shouldn't actually make a difference.

I selected credit card payment, although it seems like that's not the preferred payment. Did you pay by Western Union or credit card M.Y?

 

[davemul]

I am in email contact with this Abo guy and he says he only has the gold hinged ones

Obviously we all want the silver ones right?

any other reccomendations?

 

[jrodshibuya]

I got an e-mail from him which explains about shipping "The first basic 0.50kg need US$14, the additional weight each 0.50kg need US$3.5". That makes sense, so I'll do as Mr Yesterday suggests and buy a few different boxes. I'll need some new high quality watches to match the different boxes :lol:

Why are the silver hinged Panerai boxes better?
