Anyone familiar with or had experience with Panzera?
I rather like the look of them.

They make themselves out to have swiss links but I doubt the manufacture much out there. On closer inspection, they have a range of Swiss Made with selita movements.... These are around £580+vat. Plenty of proper well known swiss automatics for that price.
I don't have any experience with them but my take is China sourced parts with a Japanese Miyota auto movement.
Nothing wrong with stuff from china but not at the RRP of £500. £200+ vat (sale prices on site) is more bearable but £240 will still give you a lot of other choices out there for your buck which isn't an Homage. Can't really see anything really of their own design, most of their range is easily recognised as something similar to a premium brand.
At the end of the day £200+vat isn't going to be an heirloom to pass down to the next generation. It's what I would call a disposable watch budget. You buy a coat for £200 and you don't expect to wear it forever.... No difference with this Panzera.
