There is a reason it is selling for 15k below market. I wouldn’t touch it. Might be a franken-watch

Nope. Spidey senses tingling here.

If a deal is too good to be true, there is a reason

Definitely too good to be true. The bracelet looks “off”, and the movement might be a franken like others are saying. Also, it still has the caseback sticker, so the other option is that it’s stolen or from some seriously shady source, and they just want it gone ASAP.

like

The presence of the sticker and the visible red line contradicts the poor, overly polished condition of the watch. Another reason I’d just back away.

Thanks everyone! Exactly one of those deals which are too good to be true like you guys said.

Been looking at watches for over an year now, but it’s definitely hard to train the eye to catch some of these franken or fake watches. Glad to have you all taking the time to share your thoughts! 😊

Quartz movement 🤣

Hahahaha😂 you mean more accurate? 😂

Wondering where to get my Panerai. Closest store is a 4-hr drive in Chicago. Thoughts on getting it online? Also wondering how much I can negotiate if I made the drive; maybe free straps, lower price for the watch? The one I want (1321) retails for $9,200.
