Hi...I’m thinking of getting a 683 but as I can’t try one on local to me I’m after some comparison pictures with either a SD43 or a seamaster 300 , 43 and 42 mm, either will do as I have these models, at least it will give me a good idea of size...thinking 47mm is huge!!

If you can pull off SD43 don’t cross down 47mm submersibles.
what’s the size of your wrist?

You should check with TDs because I don't think any of those 2 is available

There is only a slight difference between the two, the blue seconds hand and slightly thinner case on the PAM1389. Like donacliper mentioned, ask the TDs first as it has been a while since these were released, availability might be an issue.

Sead confirmed that 1389 is out of stock, otherwise I would get one too ;)

Sead can only speak for himself. Obviously he does not know of Puretime, Trustytime or any of the other dealers' stock situation. There might be the odd stock left over, a customer might have changed his mind mid-purchase and the watch became stuck. You never know. So best to check with all of them, if you're really keen on getting one. ;)

You're right, just informing that Sead can't get it at the moment, I asked Perfect Clones some time ago and got the same answer. As mysterio said, please check with TD of your choice.

For some reason 389 wears smaller than other 47mm submersible. On pics it looks large but in real life it looks smaller than 47mm, more like 44mm.

highly recommended. Vsf pam389 V3 should be a super rep.
