I couldn't find any recent post about smaller size super rep PAM. Do they exist? Would love to lay my hand on the Luminor models. Many thanks.

Unfortunately, interest in PAMs smaller than 44mm isn't that high. Factories have started to bring out some 42mm models but 40mm, none.

Do they have 42mm super rep or is the 44mm only choice if I want to have super rep luminor?

No 42mm super rep. Only 44mm Luminor/Luminor Subs, 47mm Luminors/Luminor Subs and 45mm Radiomirs.

The pam048 by V6F is as close as you are gonna get after you swap out the datewheel. Or an old school MBW 048

The PAM049 from V6 is super rep worthy. It's a fantastic watch. I've got one I'll try to do a review of.

Oh, that's great! I've heard about it but never read any review to base a classification on. Please post your review soon! Thanks!

Would highly appreciate a review or even just a few words from yourself re the v6 pam049. I'm looking to pull the trigger on one but unsure of the accuracy (aside from the obvious dw flaw).

I'm also interested in how you corrected any flaws.

What about the PAM 1392 V6F? Any thoughts on quality? I love the 1312 ZF and apparently it is super rep quality but would prefer to have in 42mm which the 1392 achieves. Thoughts>?

Just to be clear the PAM1312 ZF has not been declared as super rep level quality (at least from what I remember) although it is certainly well made as is the previous generations from the 1950s Luminor cased models like the PAM312. If the 44mm case size is still too big for you, then the PAM1392 would be a nice alternative. Please do confirm with the dealer if the PAM1932 with a modified A7750 movement to look like the P.9010 is available. The first PAM1392 attempt had the correct movement but the wrong case (stubby lugs) then the revision corrected the case but used the A23J movement instead (wrong balance wheel location @6). But if you can live with the movement inaccuracy then the PAM1392 V6F with the A23J (Lite) movement would be fine.

The date wheel on the PAM049 is perfect

I think you're referring to the date wheel on the PAM048?

Mysterio, thank you for your reply. In your (and others) opinion(s), what is/are the best 44mm PAM Luminor super reps?
