Re: Mille Metri Prototype
Almost positive a similar Proto sold for quite a bit more a couple years ago.
Hell it's nice, id be happy with an ennebi and a paid off house instead!

Re: Mille Metri Prototype
Hello,
I was interested in the Panerai titanium prototype, I was wondering if you still have it available for sale? If you don't mind answering some questions,to help me make my decision:
Are you the original owner?
Does the watch come with box and papers?
Are you 100% sure that this model is not chinese?
Does the bezel line up correctly and exactly with the hour markers on the dial? It seems to not line up at 60 (triangle) and 30 correctly with the 12 and 6 hour markers on the dial.
How's the timekeeping, can you give an estimate of its daily rate?
When was the watch last serviced?
Are all functions working correctly and properly:
crown can screw-down correctly at first attempt (catching the thread correctly)?
crown can un-screw correctly [crown not stripped or cross threaded, crown does not pop/jump violently when un-screwed]?
minute and hour hand set correctly?
quick-set date functions/sets properly?
does the crown manually wind the watch properly and keep solid power reserve?
does the automatic rotor keep the watch wound with a solid power reserve?
What is the estimated power reserve?
Are there any deep dents, scratches, dings, gouges of any kind?
Has there ever been any or is there any moisture damage or moisture issues and/or fogging of any kind underneath the crystal or on dial or in the movement area in the display back?
Is the watch still water resistant?
Any scratches or cracks to crystal in front and in display back?
Would you be willing to sell it for $150 USD, including shipping with tracking and paypal fees. Let me know ASAP, please, as well send me your paypal/address, in case, if I decide to get the watch. I appreciate your time and consideration. I can Paypal immediately.
