just to highlight an experience.

bought a pam 372 from a private seller

didn't like the leather strap that came with it.

went to random watch reseller in midvalley to buy an OEM rubber strap for rm399

gladly paid for it and after wearing for 20 seconds, the strap snapped (i think its already disintergrated) and the watch dropped from chest height to the tiled floor

dome kena scratch, watch shop refuse to assume responsibility and quickly blamed it on the supplier "this is not our fault, its the supplier problem"

next day went to panerai boutique and got an original strap for rm570

moral of story... no point save few hundred bucks for OEM if u already paid thousands for a watch.

I doubt there's such thing as "OEM" Panerai strap. most likely just some cheapo fake.

Sad to hear about the scratch, but damn stupid of them to be blaming "supplier problem" , must've scared them shitless when it happened.

guessing so I think i know which store it is

I can feel your pain, it is very irresponsible for the strap seller to push all the responsibility to the suppler.
Did you manage to get a refund of the crap strap?

You should let the forumer know the shop name and location not to tarnish them but as a caution shop for us to avoid.

Hope your watch perfectly fine after the hit

yes they did not charge me for it.

in fact i was in the midst of pressing the PIN number on the credit card machine when the strap just snapped.

the guy cepat cepat took the watch back to fix back my original strap (i think takut i take picture n FB shame them)

further, i was not satisfied with his answers because i told him there was a scratch on the dome, he replied

"if dome crack then only it is an issue" bangwall.gif
