Hey Gents:

Having in the past a PAM318 and I loved it, but the CG had a habit to scratch me a lot so I sold it and I want to get back at PAMS. I've always loved the "OP" logo on the dial, so after looking at some options in the PAM guide, I chose it to be the 380 and I'm thinking of getting it from Toro (my go-to dealer). I love the watch, and got the chance to see the Gen up close locally, and it's a real beauty. Thinking of getting it with a black strap.

What do you think?

I agree with you on the cg. That cg is the main reason I've never gone to anything outside of the radiomir. If you want the OP logo I guess that's the only option within the radiomir line. The 380 is nice looking, I think you'll enjoy it.
I've been drooling over the kuvarsit 288 for a little while now. Need to man up and just order it soon.

Get a destro! I happen to wear my watches on my right wrist, with the cg pointing up your arm, it doesn't bother you at all. A destro on the left arm would yield the same effect for you.

I have one incoming (from another td).. Very excited to get it in my hands!

P4GTR,
Which TD/version did you get? I'm under the impression that the 288 from kuvarsit is the best version to date. Am I wrong?

Mclaren - sorry to hijack your thread here!

Love the 380. Beautiful watch. This is the most accurate rad aside from the PVD isn't it?

The most accurate radiomir aside from the PVD 292 would be the PAM 288. The PAM 183 and the PAM 380 are close behind at first class rep classification.

I agree on the left handed versions. I wear my watches on the right, so the crown guard on my 036 doesn't bother me at all.

Mysterio,
Within the 288, would you say the kuvarsit version is the best? I know puretime has a version which also looks good.

That is very nice!
I'm not opposed to spending the $$$ for the kw version. I'm just curious what the differences are between the puretime version and kw version. Am I getting any closer to gen by spending an extra $150+ for the kw version?

If you check out ALE's guide, the H factory 288K is spot on. I'm not very familiar with KW but you can't go wrong with this one.

I'm pretty sure Kuvarsit is showing the H factory, not his own version. I don't know why anyone would try to one up the H factory super rep, It's considered one of the best reps ever made.

Specifically, i'm referring to the 288K ultimate, from H factory w/ 7750.

Actually, I got in touch with kuvarsit. Planning on ordering the 288 from them with calf leather strap for $328.

OMG!

I agree with P4GTR
The KW version is the H maker for sure. But KW sells it more expensive
There is no better version than H maker A7750
