Passione Vintage Reviews 

Hello, I have used Chrono 24 `s trade sale option to open my Patek Philippe Calavatra ref 3944 (only made ever in quartz). Passione Vintage made a bid through Chrono`s system, which I accepted. I then received from Passione Vintage the request to send over the watch. The next thing is that I received another message from Chrono 24 that the Passione cancelled their bid....Bad business Passione! A complaint is filed at Chrono 24, as this possibility to cancel a bid defeats the whole idea of a trade bidding system. Anyway, it does not show maturity, professionalism on the part of Passione Vintage.

I never made a purchase of this magnitude online and therefore was rather wary approaching this project. Communication with Passione Vintage (Giovanni) was super easy and he was able to give me the needed trust to execute the transaction. Within 48 hours DHL approached me and once my Panera was through customs I could unpack the watch (it was packed with great care), which was exactly as presented by Giovanni. All went exactly how I wished it to be and I can only recommend to deal with Giovanni and his team should they have a watch you are looking for. Well done and thanks

Trustful and fast servicing. Hope prices are more cost effective tho.

I bought a Panerai for a great price from Passione Vintage and I received the watch in about two days. The watch was a little more than a year old, marketed as "almost like new" and the condition of the watch was good, only a few small dents on the case which you would expect on a 47mm watch that has been worn for almost a year. I will do business with them again in the future.

Good communication but the clock wasn't working correctly. I had to send it for warranty repair. Away for 4 weeks.

I will buy here again

Quick délivery
Very good relationship

No problem with my purchase, very pleased and kind people.

I bought a watch to M. Giovanni Pillitteri. It was perfectly matching to the description. Shipping was quite fast with immediate tracking number. I will buy again to Passione Vintage. Thank You again.

I acqurie my first vintage watch from Passione Vintage. The who proesss from price consulting to arrival of the watch took less than 4 days (I'm Located in Hong Kong). That's very impressive! I have no hesitation in recommending PV to watch lovers.

I found Passione Vintage on Chrono24. While they have a good track record on Chrono24 and there is evidence of an impressive brick & mortar store I was still a bit skeptical.
I contacted PV and was immediately put in touch with Giovanni. Customer service and communication was generally pleasing and he catered to my every request including extra pictures and detailed answers to every question that I had - this was crucial in building trust. I negotiated a price I was comfortable paying.
I sent the payment via wire transfer and as soon as PV received the funds, I received a DHL notification about shipment. The watch was with me within 48hours arriving on the weekend which was a pleasant surprise as I expected it to arrive on Monday. In totality it took about 5 days to complete the transaction from initial contact to receiving the watch.
My only negative would be that the watch had a scratch or 2 that I wasn't made aware of although I specifically asked - which I find is a standard practice of sellers to over inflate the aesthetics of a used time piece. It was in great condition and I am happy with my purchase and the process of the transaction.
I wholeheartedly recommend Passione Vintage without reservation and will contact them 1st upon my next watch purchase.

Extremely helpful staff, beautiful watches and more flexibility than normally displayed by a vintage dealer. I've never had a dealer respond in less than 24hrs, much less 12 everything was as promised and better. Would buy from this team again.

Chanced upon this site. Bought a vintage Zenith El Primero. Giovanni was very helpful despite some difficulty in communicating. Watch arrived better and faster than expected. Plus a beautiful box to go with it. Would recommend others to give them a try.

- Purchased a used watch for about 4000€
- My inquiries (email and phone) were answered quickly and satisfactory
- As soon as I transferred the money (Paypal, visa etc.) I received the DHL tracking code for my shipment (Palermo Italy to Germany)
- DHL was fast, 2 days later I received the watch
- Watch included proper certification, extra steel bracelet part and original wooden box
- Watch itself was in bad shape (not as advertised), had to be sent for a complete! service for another 1000€ (all in all the price is still very good)

perfect communication - perfect watch - perfect delivery!

Very professional to deal with. Valeria really helpful when watch needed repairing and dealt with it immediately. Highly recommended.

I bought from Passion Vintage a new vacheron costantin from the90's, through Chrono 24. As it was my first purchase of a valuable clock via internet, I was a little worried that something could go wrong.
On the contrary my experience was great: fast delivery, on time communication and, more important than everything else, no surprise at all with the watch.

IWC Big Pilot

I recently bought a Big Pilot from Passione Vintage. They were very helpful and provided answers to my questions as well as sending me additional photos. I have found that many other sellers are often NOT so helpful.

The payment was simple (with many payment options), and the shipment was very fast, arriving in 2 days, and the watch was safely and securely packaged.

I'm very pleased with the watch. The condition is very good and exactly as described.

I recommend Passione Vintage (and Valeria) to anyone looking for their next watch.

Very reliable, honest seller. greatly recommend. Waldemar Poland

The Rolex has been advertised as condition 1 and that is nearly true, but it would be better to mention the scratches an the bracelet and the dust on the outer box, so the watch is between 1 and 2. Delivery and payment were perfect. Communication was very fast and kind. I can recommnend Passione Vintage as a trustful shop. And not to forget for this watch in condition 1-2 the price was good.
