Thus, it seems fitting to start here with a small introduction. I guess I would refer to myself as a collector and enthusiast. I got into watches, in a big way, 7 years ago. Since then I’ve learned a great deal. I’ve watched countless videos, spent hours on forums, and visited untold number of AD’s and boutiques around the world. I’ve been to live watch events and talked at length with other fellow WIS. I’ve had the privilege of experiencing hundreds of watches first-hand, across many types, brands, and price points. Throughout this journey, I have purchased nearly 150 watches for my collection, selling more than 100 of these watches on to new homes. Being party to well over 200 watch transactions, I think it is fair to say I’ve got some experience. I try to sell watches the way I would like other sellers to do when I am the buyer. I try to make sure that the pictures I provide are above-average, thereby allowing one to get a good look at the cosmetic condition. If I know there are flaws beyond very light normal wear, I will disclose it. If I know of mechanical issues, I will disclose it. Over 100 sales and counting, I have yet to hear from anyone who was disappointed with the condition of the watch they received. As a result of this selling approach, I have earned perfect feedback on a well known auction platform as well as watch forums. Until Chrono24 implements feedback for private sellers, you will have to take my word for it, but there are dozens of happy buyers here too. THE WATCH Panerai Radiomir Brevettato 3 Day (LE of 1,000) PAM 685 I purchased this watch in 2021 from a very reputable and well known U.S. dealer. It was made in 2017 as part of a limited edition run of 1,000. I’m selling it because I simply have too many Panerai. If I were wealthy beyond belief, and had a large home, I would keep every one of them with a smile. However, reality dictates that a few need to find new homes. Comes full set, triple box with papers. Authenticity is fully guaranteed by me as the seller. The Panerai factory warranty has expired. Condition The watch is in exceptional condition overall. The watch was rotated as part of a large collection over the past few years, so it has had little chance for wear and tear. Other than some faint surface lines visible under loupe, and some desk wear on the buckle, this watch looks new on wrist. I doubt you could find a nicer example of this LE watch for sale at any price. My Impressions The engraved bezel makes this one of the most unique watches Panerai has come out with. Its neutral attributes make it a candidate for almost any strap you can think of. It wears smaller than most of the 47mm Radiomirs given the wide bezel and the fact that is quite thin. The wire lugs also trim a lot of the heft relative to the fixed lug 47mm Panerai. The large watch effect without an overpowering wrist presence. Measurements Diameter: 47.0 mm Thickness: 13.8 mm Lug-to-Lug: 51.3 mm Lug Width: 27.0 mm Specifications Manual Wind Movement: p.3000 72 hour power reserve 21 jewels Stainless steel case Plexi crystal (sapphire on back) Water Resistance: 3 ATM (30 meters) THE PRICE I try to price all of my watches in a manner that is fair to both buyer and seller. I generally analyze a number of different sources at the time of listing. I price my watches below what you would pay at a (reputable) dealer for a similar watch (age, condition, completeness), realizing that buyers are going to want a small negative premium to buy from a lesser known entity. However, I also balance that with the knowledge that my watches are almost always in “very good” to “like new” condition, and may in fact be as nice, or nicer, than you would find at many dealers (particularly less established ones). As such, I’m not looking to sell below the watch’s true value. I do consider offers. The market is constantly changing so sometimes a case can be made for a lower price, though not always. I’m happy to discuss it though. That said, I’m never desperate to sell a watch. Those “masters” of the low-ball will not find any success with me. In fact, they may well irritate me to the point they find themselves blocked from further contact and discussion. My watches are exactly what is described and are worth the price being asked. Also of note, you will likely find this watch listed on other platforms. This, as several buyers over the years have wrongly suggested, is not indicative of a scam. It is merely a way to reach a wider pool of buyers. Once funds have cleared, I will be removing all other listings. You might also notice that pricing differs from platform to platform. This has to do with different commissions. They can range from 0% on a watch forum to 13% on a popular auction site. Feel free to choose the platform you’re comfortable with, just know that the final price will reflect it.
