    I just returned from Venice and picked one up for $4,900. I checked the mall (Tourneau) and they are selling the same one for $7,100. But then again it was Tourneau.

    The prices seem in line cause I also picked up a Bell & Ross in Venice and they have them for $1,000 more here.

    Good luck

    I just googled it and some sale them for $5,700. But not sure if they are reputable. I never feel safe purchasing expensive watches from net stores.

    They had it for 4500 euros but cut down to 3900 euros. Plus the tax back helped

    Some are easy to get at a better price while the hotter ones remain at full, or near full price.

    All depends....

    Bought one in Munich, Germany this past July. Got the VAT refunded and the net price was well below USA retail.

    Try watchuwant.com. I've gotten several Panerais from OJ. He's got lots in stock.

    OJ is a good guy, done lots of biz with him.

    The problem with Panerai is (with the more popular pieces) there isn't much room/incentive to stock them so dealers don't care.
