Check out this Panerai Sale
This is unreal:
http://www.network54.com/Forum/26509...C74%2C98%2C217 They guy is selling about US$170,000 worth of Panerai watches, including some pre-Vendome wrist depth guages and a compass! Even has a Max Biaggi signature Panny! That is H U G E money to have invested in Panerai! I'm sure Panerai themselves would like to pick up some of these babies for their museum. ![]() |

Last year there was a big Panerai auction at Christie's where PAMs from the 30s, 40s and 50s went for US$75,000+. I would imagine the company would want to pick some of these vintage pieces up as they likely didn't keep any in the vault (like the Egyption Navy's 8 day PR diver, for example). Given that between the 1930s and 1997 Panerai only produced about 300-odd watches, it shows how rare these vintage pieces are. |

wow.. this guy must have been a serious collector...
omega actually buy pieces from ebay for their museum. I was outbid by omega on one piece that i saw on ebay which was a mint 267 sub second omega from early 1950's. I was rather pi$$ed that i lost out on this piece as i had put a really high bid on it with esnipe.. but this account outbid me!! looking through what it had bought, it had bought 400+ omegas over a year or two.. all mint condition, often way over market value.. this account was also located in switzerland.. so my suspicians were raised as was the use of the account name,which was the ex director of omega museam.. so i emailed seller about my suspicians, and he confirmed thathe had sent watch to omega... |

![]() Kinda sucks when a watch you want on ebay is snapped up by someone with infinetly deeper pockets and willing to pay way over market value for it, athought that's nice for the seller. But it's also kinda cool that you, Mamas, have exquisite taste in that you're after a piece they want for the museum. At least you know you can visit it in the future. ![]() |

Some good (and hard to find) stuff, but no real bargains.
Silvermagic is very good to deal with and, you may be able to bargain them down a bit. |
