Something to ponder...

Hi Nicolas, You wrote: "To me, Passion doesn't meet any acccomodation with Fakes, or Hommage... And it is very sensible, with Panerai, or any other brand with a real Past." To draw this debate into the automotive sphere, where does this philosophy leave t...
well said Asi

my thoughts as well on this. My opinion is, that everyone can do what he wants - building together pieces, of which some are genuine and some are not, is making a dangerous combination in my opinion... I could imagine that in some years such watches gets ...
wait a minute ...

I think every Panerai collector has a rather good reason to state his opinion about Guille's plan to create one or more fake Vintage Panerais. Let's please call it what it is! First and foremost, "Keller 3646" happens to be Ralf Ehlers, the co-author of t...

if they let you in here,,,,,,,lol Thomas, hope all is well Cheers, Asi
Guille is a terrific person!

without any doubts! I think we all agree that those like posts should not be published. We are all saying the same things with different approaches. I earlier posted 'sometimes passion drives us to do wrong' and frustration is often the reason for some to...
Have you said enough?
By: Guille : June 21st, 2009-11:48
I won't fall into a provocation, I think I have said what I needed on this topic on and offline. I offered regrets for posting the photos out of respect for people I know who own vintage pieces, and for the admiration that I have for the watches themselve...
Too generous
By: MTF : June 21st, 2009-14:14
Guille, Why are you rewarding such boorish, self-centred behavior with such generosity? As you have acquired the dial (assume legally), you are free to do with it as you wish. A. You can frame it for posterity. B. You can use it in any of your other watch...
My dear Art

you have a personal dislike of me from moment one, and I can tell you the feeling is 100% mutual. I expressed my feelings, like them or not , and while I might have made the final point in my first post with words that might be considered too strong by so...
My point in a nutshell
By: scotthicks61 : July 11th, 2009-10:21
AT, you hit the nail square on the head. I don't intend to make waves, and I have not posted enough to do so, but Guille was being attacked pretty hard for showing so little. Yep, the book is without a doubt the best analysis of vintage Panerai but that c...
Bonati
By: edwardwchang : July 18th, 2012-00:59
I am surprised you guys havent called out angelo bonati for making the PAM372 and PAM390, it seems there are many elites on this forum who believe normal people shouldnt have nice things. Its hilarious how the monied elite will create new legal, ethical, ...
amusing :-)

I'm not a vintage collector so what I will say might sound stupid to those who want to pay hyper inflated prices And I have the feeling some guys get scared that it is unjustifiable that a 100K watch costed only 5K 15 years ago. It starts to look like som...
Layman question......
By: sergio : July 18th, 2012-03:08
before one starts to reassemble...original...parts of a watch, on the way of making an "hommage" "fake" (call it whatever you like), shouldn't one contact Panerai, obtain some sort of authorization to proceed, lest some patents or copyright infringements ...
To close this story
By: Guille : July 22nd, 2012-17:04
To close this story, this genuine vintage dial went into a genuine vintage 3646 as a dial replacement. The genuine watch came thru a well known auction house and was itself validated by Vintage Panerai experts. It was a much more satisfying way to use the...
