I've been on the forum for about 2 months now, did my homework and decided to go for a PAM 111 V3 noob, however, I really wanted a Hublot so bought one from another TD and am extremely happy with it, now, I'm ready for the PAM and have just ordered it with an Asso strap from Sead, ordered & paid for it on Saturday 25th May, comms have been great so far, just waiting for QC pics, will update you all soon :))) (by the way thanks for the great advice etc on the forum)

Cool stuff man! Share your QC pictures when you get them!

I'm a noob on this forum but I'm pretty sure that's not allowed unless I want advice on a serious flaw or something? I'll post pics of the watch when I get it

Yup, it's generally not allowed to post qc pics since those are for your personal use unless you spot an error and need advice.

Ok, have had some QC pics now and asked Sead to make sure I didn't get one of the Pams which had the dodgy "OFFICINE PANERAI" text too far to the right, after telling him about this he sent me this picture and I think the text is far too out! Looking at sample pics on TD websites it looks a lot different, REJECT OR ACCEPT?View attachment 21744

Who will ask to see the back of your watch? Accept and wear it well

I understand that not many will want to look at the back but this looks like a bad batch that I've read about (whole point of researching this forum before you buy) if there's a bad batch of V3 PAMs out there i dont think they should be accepted but im a Noob and want advice, thanks for your input.

It does look a little far to the right OFFICINE PANERAI, but its not too bad. Mine is very similar. No one has ever asked me to take off my watch

It does look a little to the right but I've seen worse, does it warrant rejection IMHO no, the regulator screw also isn't touching but that's an easy fix.

Ok, I've accepted this, it's not as bad as some I've seen and Sead told me they are all like this at the moment! I'll post shots of this when I get it, btw Seads communication has been excellent and he's been 100% honest with every question I've fired his way! I've checked every TD on this forum and trust me he is far cheaper than the rest of them.

I thought it was only QC bashing that was frowned upon?
Eg, ok to post QC pictures if you've already accepted and you just mean to share?
Maybe I should re-read and make sure.
