Very nice. Do you know how much or when they'll be available?
Kidding haha!!! I can't wait to get that one. Thanks C

I'm by no means an expert on these matters, but for my money, this looks excellent. I think if this cost reasonable money I'd be all over this for my next project.
The one thing that has stopped me from getting a PAM thus far has been the inconsistency in the quality of the dial prints. It's not that I'm a perfectionist, but a lot of the dials on factory reps just look nothing like their genuine counterparts. This one, however, looks much better.
I know you said don't ask when or where, but...

That is a very bad tease Alvi, you have the Pam addicts frothing at the mouth with explicit instructions to not even try to satisfy the curiosity that will build about a new drug.
Not fair dude. LOL.

Pretty good, even the low cross-bars aren't *that* low.
The font on the "L Swiss Made L" is different from gen and slightly too big.
The dial might be a bit too glossy, as well. The "O" in Luminor is too wide.
All in all, a pretty good dial - on par with Little Hero's dial, IMO, or at least very close to it. The price is the big question.
There are also confirmed rumors of an Asian version of the 7753 - so look for a new crop of Daylight chronos and such.
I've also heard talk of a new A series PAM024 rep coming. This is the all polished bezel with no hash marks and a dial with no metal surrounds on the markers.
I'm excited to see what we get after the CNY.

Yes, Pix, that would mean the end of the recessed datewheels, as that was a function of the extra geartrain parts needed to relocate the subdials.
It's a shame the good 196/188 Daylight cases are a thing of the past, though. Perhaps these new reps will see new cases, too? Probably too much to hope for.

This is indeed a pretty good dial; thanks for sharing.
As for Asian 7753 rep, this is very likely. For those going for this year's Baselworld, you may want to visit the Chinese section. There you may find this movement.

Not bad. Main flaws are in the printing, color of the text and also the no.6 cutout.
As for lumeshots, anyone can manipulate lume so it appears bright and same color as gen in PS. So until its in hand, shan't comment.
OT: alvin, have you xfered the $ over? Sorry haven't checked as of late
