You could have a look on Paneristi . Just make sure you try to find out as much as possible about the person you're buying from.

Alternatively you could try Blowers Jewellers. They always seem to have a good stock.

Chronomaster too (Neil) - equally relaible. You could also try Dom Hackett in Hatton Gardens, who would perhaps be easiest to track down through Pistonheads. His user name is Dom H but he doesnt promote his business.

Theyre recommended for used Rolex too. Used Rolex is always recommended over any Panerai.

Reliable, but Blowers are expensive. Berrys in Leeds have a decent used section, give them a ring. They are a quality retailer.

some good used Rolex out there at the mo, just make sure it got it's B&P.

You won't loose any money on the stainless steel sports watches.. just don't buy in Gold/yellow metal.

Why do you recommend Rolex over Panerai?

I quite like the Rolex GMT II ceramic that came out a few years ago.
