    STOP Wearing Panerai..? Interesting Read...

    http://www.askmen.com/fashion/mens-w...l?t=1272457928

    What you guys think about this...?

    Comments?

    Obviously this author, Watch Snob, is a pure Panerai hater. But calling Panerai owners 'Clowns' , I think is a bit too much of an accusation base on 'opinions'.

    Panerai a 'cheap toy'? I doubt that.

    Agreed that A Lange makes one of the best watches right now but please, how many of us can afford one? Especially the Datograph?! Definitely not me.

    Thought I could share this with you guys after reading it at P.com,

    Cheers.

    Pure nonsense! If we were to take the words of a shallow chap that views watch buying based on trends evidenced in quotes like "A Panerai was viable 5 years ago" etc...probably is the clueless one himself.
    If anything, his article does a dis-service to A.Lange & Sohne, a brand that isn't exactly all that much more expensive or desirable than a Pam.

      Well said Bro!

      Didnt cross my mind that his article does a dis-service to A Lange.

      I wonder what watch this Watch Snob person wears.

      Cheers.

        Lange is a top notch movement brand....and its movement quality is way higher than Panerai. I have no doubt about this even thought I am a Pam fan. I am also a Lange Fan.

        But, there is no need to slam Pam like this cos....they have different pros and cons...thus fitting into the diff market segments. So, it is perfectly viable that both are good to diff people at dif price points.

        Think this guy has zil knowledge on marketing.

        Last time, a dealer here will blast him for saying Pam is not good. He thinks the world of Pams. Now that his attention has shifted to vintage Rolex, things will not erupt even if every one her slam Pams.

          Lange fan as well. Price point discourages a lot of us to buy. Would love to own one in couple of years' time.

          Everyone's entitiled to their opinions but to slam others for liking certain brands is not a cool thing to do

          I'm a Panerai fan and pround to say so. Love the design and history. Even have to trim my collection coz I gotten carried away buying them.

          Funny thing is that I have a Rolex GMT IIc sitting in my winder. It's been there since the day I bought it, absolutely no wrist time at all. Not that I don't like GMT IIc, just that PAM watches are hogging all the wrist time

              A lange is also on my wish list and I am hunting for the correct variation before I pull the trigger. However, I still love the Pams that I have and they will not be replace...clown or not.

                  This shows you how the words of dealers must be taken with a huge pinch of salt. haha. Check VRM for all his recently venture into the brand he slammed just last year. Ok...better stop talking about others lest those people very sensitive and think I was talking about them

                    I think the writer is absolutely right.
                    So, please, all of you Pam owners, pass me your 203, 127, 217, 190 etc ...
                    "Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence,
                    three times is enemy action and
                    over 600 is clearly the work of an ancient Sumerian demon or some sh*t                    ."
