    Default Hello!

    Hello everyone! My name is Steve and I知 new to this forum. In fact, I知 new to the world of replica watches. I知 anxious to buy my first replica and I知 focusing on a simple (in style) Panerai, such as the PAM 112 manufactured by Noob or H Factory or similar quality. I have to say, though, that I知 discouraged by my early efforts to find one. I found exactly what I want on the site of one of the trusted dealers. However, I noticed that it had been added to the site many years ago and suspected that it was no longer available. I contacted the vendor who confirmed that it was not. I asked if they could find something similar in quality. They could not, but suggested that I order a cheaper version from a factory that has no name and with no technical information at all. In other words, a pig in a poke. I declined. I then found what I wanted from a second trusted dealer. I added it to my cart, but when I went to the cart there was a notice that the watch was not available. So I went to a third trusted dealer, found what I wanted, added it to the cart and it appeared to be available. When I got to the payment stage of the purchase I had a question about method of payment. I contacted the vendor and he answered my question, but then added that the watch was not available. What? If I had not asked the question I would have sent my payment for a watch that does not exist. I don稚 mean to sound like a whiner and complainer. I知 just trying to figure out how this all works. But, if my experience so far is par for the course, maybe I need to pick a different new hobby. I welcome any thoughts or encouragement.

    Welcome on RG,...the best factories for Panerai used to be SF, KW/V6. Did you read the tips and tricks on buying reps? Always let a TD confirm stock of the watch you look for, there are a lot of stories about having paid for a watch before checking the stock and then being offered another watch ect.
    Do your reading before you buy m8, whining you can do afterwards...

    Welcome to your knowledge base. You have already learned one of the rules when buying from a TD which is 'mail for availability before you order'. Just because it is on their web page, doesn't mean that it is immediately available. These are not multi-national companies but small independent concerns. They don't have a team constantly updating the website with what's available and what's not.

    Good luck in finding that watch.
