Hi all, I'm pretty fresh here but have to thank you (esp. @Ale7575 :cheer:) for your contributions. It helped me a great deal!

I'm about to buy a Noob V3. But then realized that this version is on the market for quite some time. So is it realistic to expect a V4-version at short notice? And if so does anyone know what new features can be expected?

Thnx!

111v3 is super gen like and no one will notice since the flaw is in the back or inside the watch.
keep on waiting and u will get nothing in return, lift ur ass and take action.

I really don't see anything much to upgrade on the V3 for what it costs it's excellent value!

The PAM111 has basically reached the point of diminishing returns. Less improvement for more money.

If you want to take it beyond the V3 level just send it to Vac to do some movement mods and you will have an even more 'gen like' watch... but imo that's not necessary and total waste of money, I would rather spend my money on a new strap :)

I don't see a v4 coming. The v3 is an amazing watch. The movement is bullet proof. I too wear mine everyday.

Never played it even once. :p The term has been used in rep forums to simply explain why reps will mostly be only accurate to gen up to a certain point, where further improvement towards that elusive 1:1 state will cost too much to be practical. Of course, certain individuals can and will spend the additional money and that's where modders come in. The latest PAM super reps have come so far that they are good enough out of the box without needing modding, but the possibility is still there. :)

But I think that many of them will take many time to be include in reps

"Slim" crown, better beveled in crystal and CG lever pin gasket are already included in New PAM replicas, most likely new batches of PAM 111 V3 come with this last modifications (Noob PAM 390 comes with them)

Maybe Incablock mod could be introduced (like some time ago) as an option.
We will have to wait more time to get modifications as case-set, wheels, gear train, Swan Neck etc...

I have the 111v3 and I Sent it to Vac. He did the movement mod, polished wheels and canon pin. Love it. He also serviced it and regulated it.
