Hmm in the masses? Not anytime recently
I forgot if I've even been complimented on any of my Panerais by a non-WIS stranger in public. If I have, it must have been many many years ago because I can't recall any instances. Panerai has already reached the masses, and coming close to being publica...

Never
Panerais are too common here and the average Joe would not recognize the fakes from the super rare vintage. I have noticed admiring glances when wearing other high end brands but never a direct compliment. I once made the mistake of complimenting someone ...
Outside of the WIS...
