Hi friends,

I really like the pam 253.
I am a little bit spoiled, so i want one with real sapphire & superlum.

Joshua is selling one with sapphire and swiss mov. voor $ 658,-.

If you buy the asian one without sapphire........only € 248,-

only 1 question, can you order sapphire for this watch?

3 questions:

Is the swiss version worth the money?
Is there sapphire available for the 253?
Do the 26 MM straps fit?


greetings,

Swiss version is not worth the money (in this case). Reason: You're going for reluming job. at the same time get the asian movement serviced too. It'll increase its reliability.
I am not sure for this question.
It will fit with 24mm strap.

I was thinking whether the blue color is same as the real one, the so called regatta blue color. If the color does not match, I think a waste of time to get 253, rather get a 212.
