{*PCTeam*} WARNING !!!!!!!!! - Dial ISSUE at "2" in PAM 111 V3 Noob- *****

[ALE7575]

WARNING !!!
BE CAREFUL ACCEPTING QC PICS OF PAM 111 V3 FROM NOOB FACTORY

FOR GENERAL INFORMATION

There are some watches PAM 111 V3 from Noob with a dial issue in font of the "2"

This is the dial "2" issue you must detect in QC pics:

The "2" at RIGHT is COMPLETELY WRONG

The flaw is serious and very noticeable

We have already detected about five or six watches here and in RWG

Thnx! I just ordered a PAM111 V3 , Im waiting for QC's so this will be very helpfull

Sorry. Realized this post should have been in different thread.

If you follow the flat part of the bottom diagonal of the 2, on the correct version, it will intersect the bottom line close to the inner corner, whereas on the incorrect version, the intersection point is much further to the left.

I just noticed something, this dial font variant seems to be from the Panerai 390 Base. Perhaps these dials got mixed up?

Sorry if this is a dumb question as I'm new here. I note that a number of people are mentioning QC pics...I'm guessing QC stands for Quality Control...am I correct on that part? And if I am correct are these QC pics sent to a buyer previous to the watch being shipped (it seems that may be the case if I am inferring properly)?

I ask as I ordered PAM299 K 1:1 Noob Best Edition A7750 from PureTime yesterday and I wanted to know if I should be looking out for them.

Thanks,

Dave

All of your assumptions are correct.

I guess I'll have to count with some luck, since I ordered and my 111nv3 is in transit at the moment.
When it arrives I'll post some pics
(hope mine isn't this wrong version)

You will receive QCpics (Quality control pics, OK) after payment.
Usually you don't need ask the dealer for QC pics, they send the pics after confirming Payment. Pueretime will send the pics to you no worries about that.
Anyway you could ask for the pics when you make the payment, no problem.
But always after the payment !!

This type of "2" font exists in many PAM dials, mainly in sausage dials as the PAM 390, even in Sandwich dials but old series
This is not a correct font for MODERN SANDWICH dials

Send me a PM if you want to know it or start a thread with the consult Indicating your problem !!!

As I mentioned over on RWG as well, thanks for sharing this info ALE, it may save some forum users from some disappointment.

Just like to add my observations...
not only does the 2 in 12 was wrong, the 3 & 6 both were wrong too.
lets see the 12, 3 & 6

Also, the stick hour hand are thinner in comparison.

Macro of the numbers

Comparing to Pam 390, the 12 & 6 look similar however the tail in the "3" does not...

 

[mullica]

May I know what is the correct font for the PAM 127? Thanks.

 

[kaixel]

Sorry guys, i am quite new here, and i am new to purchasing a rep from the TD, just wondering, if i bought a PAM 111N V3 and i receive such QC pics, wat should i do? Asking for refund? going for another model? Or it just to let us know bout this flaw and be ready for it?

Yes! This graphic was the first, the old one on the first cartel sandwich dials 111H. This batch is totally wrong, five or six years old... bad move from Noob...

 

[PolonusTM]

I only heard stories about Noob doing such things but now it is real issue, not just a gossip

After looking again at the QC pics I received I have realised that I may have the wrong dial on my watch which is now in the post. I have already said okay to the dealer now and the watch is in transit. What do you think I can do now regarding the wrong dial?
