Over the last few days I've been mulling over the purchase of a new watch, in particular a Panerai. Now, I posted questions etc on a number of associated forums for this brand including one on here but tbh never really thought I would get much of a reply for obvious reasons although I do know there are 1 or 2 fans here.

Anyway the crux of the story is I got virtually 1 helpful reply out of the 3 or 4 replies I did get on the other forums.......bloody useless!! It's not hindered me at all in searching for something new but its made me think about when I posted here first with no clue about the brand or what I wanted. Even still I got loads of replies to any questions I asked and everyone was helpful and friendly, some of these sites including one in particular could take a leaf out of this forum's book and its members. BreitlingSource = NO 1!!

Oh and I'm about to take a hit on a PAM441 if anyones interested! :nana:

Glad that members were able to help you out Andrew. This site certainly has become a lot more of a general watch appreciation site in recent years and while we don't like to compare with other sites I think that the general sense is that we enjoy being a little different than some other places.

Very true roff we seem more watch general as oppose to breitling fan boys.

Hey Andrew - glad BS is still providing the goods! :thumbsup:

To be honest I've been a member of a number of watch forums (under varying screen-names) and some places are so bl**dy anti-social I've not stayed around long. I remember on one forum (that shall remain nameless), I wrote a nice introductory mail about myself and my watch collecting, and expressed how much liked the watches that the forum was dedicated to, and after a couple of days over 50 people had read it, and not one person bothered to reply or say hi. :roll:

BreitlingSource is nothing if not friendly (most of the time!) :wink:

Maybe I expected too much after my experiences here.

I just shook my head, you post on a well known, 'dedicated' forum to Panerai which has an amzing amount of traffic going through it about purchasing a watch and getting some advice. 1 person gives you a decent amount of information another told me too look at the sales corner(fair enough) and someone had a go about 'we don't discuss pricing on this site'!!! All I asked for was a price, not a discussion............useless in my opinion.

I also laughed because I then replied back saying I'd found a watch etc..........no replies.........................USELESS! :shock:

I don't even bother with other forums, as none compare to this site.
