Panerai 113

[AB]

The opportunity has arisen to buy one of these at what seems to be a good price, from a friend of a work colleague.

I've always lusted after a 111 but they've always been over what I am comfortable spending without selling anything else, which I don't want to do.

I tried it on my wrist and loved it, but experience tells me that the feeling can be short lived. I'm also lead to believe that they can be difficult to move on as nobody wants the white dial.

We're talking about £3k in good condition with all papers etc so it's hard to say no. I think I need talking into it and for someone to say I'll be able to sell it in 3 months if I don't like it like I think I will.

In general terms, I'd say never accept second choice/second best when there is something else that you really want. You'll end up buying twice. Unless you think you can make a few bob on this then I'd wait until you find a 111.

[AB]

You're probably right.

I'll work a bit harder in 2016.

I'd have thought a 111 would be around the £3k mark used if you buy from the US?

There's a new one here for £4k http://www.jomashop.com/panerai-luminor-mens-watch...

I've got a really nice 00111 for sale on e-bay at the moment it's only been on for about an hour and I've had 5 enquiries. Is the 2007 00111 manual collectable? I've never worn it in the three years I've owned it.
Here is the e-bay number 291650318669

Do it, don't do it, do it, don't do it...

Did it...



Should be here next week.

[AB]

Yep, I'll have it when I go back to work!

Looks nice, I wrestled for a while with the idea of a white face but was too worried about resale but I shouldn't have bothered as there's no way I'll ever move my PAM on now.

I always lusted after the black face, but after giving it some thought I realised that most all of my watches have dark faces, so why not!?
