Need help buying a pre-owned Panerai
Hello all. I'm new to the forum and was hoping some of the "paneraisti" could help me. I found a nice PAM 113 which I was going to buy from a watch collector. The person has numerous references, perfect ebay rating, has provided me with his full contact information, etc., so the person appears trustworthy. He didn't buy the watch from an AD, so I'm not sure whether he even knows whether he has a fake or the real thing. Obviously, he believes it's real, but there are some really nice fakes out there. I thought if I posted some pics, some people might be able to chime in whether they believe this is a real one or a fake. Any thought are appreciated.

Patek 2450 - reference and dating Q's
I have a new_to_me Patek - a 35mm rose gold identifed at ref. 2450. Looking at the Antiquorum catalogue and my various books, I see this reference no. with a couple different case designs. The case serial number also does not fit into the listings at: Brittons Patek dating. In looking at the movement number I suspect the watch dates to the early 50's . The watch needs service (broken set lever) and some cleanup and I am weighing the best course of action with an eye towards getting it back onto the market - and a bit more background on this reference and it's age would be helpful.

CLERC CXX SCUBA Photos & First Impressions
There's no mistaking the Clerc CXX Scuba is an actual workman's watch designed to meet a demanding marine environment - but calling it a tool is akin to calling the Space Shuttle a plane.Where Rolex Subs, Omega Seamasters, Invicta Pro Divers and Seikos dive watches are rugged and gruff, the Clerc is a strong, silent Gary Cooper - dressed in black tail and tie. You know behind the gentleman's facade the CXX can take - and dish out - punishment.This is a solid, chunky cube of stainless steel. Big - about 42 mm and as thick as a typical VJ 7750-powered chrono (somewhere around 12 mm I'd guess) - but not over-powering. It commands more wrist area than a Rolex diver and less than an Omega or the new line of Invicta Swiss-powered divers most of us are familiar with.It's heavier than the Rolex and the Omega, but lighter than the Invicta Reserve Pro Diver. It's also smaller and lighter than the Seiko 6R15 (Sumo) diver that graces my collection. As with all Clercs, what sets this watch apart f
