I purchaed (2012) a watch band for my Panerai copy watch, as one side of the locking mechanism didn't work. I saw this guy's advertising, don't recall exactly where, and went to his website. He had a phone number of Customer Service (619) 717.8452 and being in Oceanside CA I thought he was local (might have been a burner phone?)
Anyway, the new watch band/bracelet/stainless steel/ quickly had the same defect as the older one, and when I e-mailed him he (Mike) was nowhere to be found.
If you are unluckly enough to run into him, he sell low quality stuff, at least to me, and conveniently disappears soon after.
I, stupidly, received an ad for watches and watch bands, etc. for what looked to be a legitimate site. The phone number was for a reasonably local number. I ordered a replacement watch band for my Panerai Daylight. I was told:
""We are again taking orders now though the site. The band your looking for is in the link above. This band is of great quality and craftsmanship. You will be pleased with it. Dirk""
The band 'worked' for about 3+ months then malfunctioned and wouldn't stay closed. When I tried to contact the original ""Mike"" via his e-mail address of ""[email protected]"" it was returned as undeliverable. Also, the web address ""disappeared"" also.
I was taken for about $90+ including shipping. In doing some more ""searching/analysis"" now, and they just disappeared.
This occurred in 2011 and in doing a current search, I see that there have been a lot of complaints.
