sjb 0 Posted March 28, 2011 There is a large gathering of Italian cars(Ferrari,Lamborghini,Masarati etc etc) at Brooklands in Surrey, UK at the end of April. Should I wear my Pam rep? I am tempted but I don't know if I should? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,514 Posted March 28, 2011 Too right I'd wear a Panerai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andygt 0 Posted March 28, 2011 I wouldn't if I were you, the rep police have a heavy presence at these events not to mention some of the higher ranking officers are 'well connected' if you know what I mean... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
powderfreak 0 Posted March 28, 2011 NO, dont do it. Wear a Glashütte and tell everybody, Germans are more skilled craftsmen and German cars are also much better. But ensure you rent a Porsche that day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tressles61 0 Posted March 28, 2011 I agree. Nothing like walking around looking at cars, enjoying yourself when a tap on the shoulder comes. "Please come with us sir". Then you sit there for hours before you are finally questioned. If you don't tell them where the watch came from then you are arrested. Basterds. I wouldn't if I were you, the rep police have a heavy presence at these events not to mention some of the higher ranking officers are 'well connected' if you know what I mean...

Tressles61 0 Posted March 28, 2011 Note here that Greg said Panerai not replica panerai. You people need to be straight with this guy and tell him what really happens if you wear a replica to an event like that. I'm not far from Brooklands. If I make it there on the day you gotta believe I am gonna be wearing a Panerai.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samurai dave 7 Posted March 28, 2011 I wear my reps all the time (although I only have 2) and if anyone wants to talk to me about them I will tell them that they are reps, but people dont ask. They either dont know what they are looking at or dont care. There is a guy at work who has 2 Omegas and has been saving for years for a sub. I turned up with my rep from Lay and he was bowled over with the quality. He could have been convinced that it was the real thing. Unless someone actually take your wrist in their hand and examines the watch they will never know. The bloke who runs the burger van in the local market has a rolex and I have no idea if it is real or not. I assume it is fake but you never know. Wear your watch with pride, enjoy it and enjoy the great looking cars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David543 0 Posted March 28, 2011 I'd wear it. Most won't notice. Maybe no one will notice, it's only us who care.... Only watch the public recognise is Rolex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
watch.aholic 538 Posted March 28, 2011 Why the reluctance? Let's not live in any fear. If at all, we are smarter than the bunch of guys who pay 30 times for to get an almost identical watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please don't tell the nooks about the awful outcome of the guy who wore his v2 grande complication to a movie opening if I recall he barely got out alive.

I've never heard of anyone being arrested for wearing a rep, in the UK anyway. I think I'm being wound up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
