Chipster Report post Posted August 4, 2016 Saw some old discussions on them from quite a few years ago but nothing recent. Anyone owned one? Seems like there are some at 50% of retail. Becoming more interested in picking up a nice watch sub 10k in the near future. SomE decent Bell & Ross and Hublot ones that interest me too but mostly the RJs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCR Report post Posted August 4, 2016 No Seems like there are some at 50% of retail. And you already answered your own question. There's an obvious reason as to why some are 50% off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted August 4, 2016 If I got one it would be a keeper. Was more curious about the watch itself. Functions well, little maintenance, comfortable, etc. It seems like those sentiments you guys have are the same from years ago but I was thinking that was the case with pricing near MSRP. Thought views might have changed regarding pricing since they are new but over half off. Worth a shot though so I appreciate you guys chiming in.

soup Report post Posted August 14, 2016 You can get so much more for that amount, no idea why you would consider this brand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted August 14, 2016 Like what? We all have our tastes. Most of the other stuff I see appeals to me none. I like rubber clad types. Like AP ROOs but all of them would be m9re than I'd spend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been wearing this a lot daily and love it with the rubber strap. http://www.chrono24.com/en/panerai/luminor...--id4714577.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup Report post Posted August 15, 2016 I would save up a little and go for an AP Diver. Or the new Tag Heuer tourbillon: https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/The-TAG-H...rrera-Heuer-02T. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
szabo_martin Report post Posted August 15, 2016 Whatever makes you happy Chip, watches are a very personal item... I do tend to agree with the above tho... as a watch guy... I really liked my Panerai Base Laminor on a rubber strap. They have the black ceramic ones as well and I know dealers would move 25% which would put you under 10K. The watches you mentioned would be fine for a couple hundred dollars but when spending thousands, better off getting a watch with a known movement and a good dealer network.... just my $0.02 at the end of the day whatever makes you happy... My ultimate sub 10K watch is the Rolex Submariner but if its not your taste then doesn't matter what anyone thinks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted August 15, 2016 The Watches above aren't bad. Hadn't really seen any Panerai with rubber straps before. AP diver looks good. Rolex definitely is not my style but they are nice. If I do end up getting something I will surely post it in here. Renting a place with the gf in the next month or so, so no purchases for a while anyways lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
