[daevildog]

Looking to get a 47mm Submersible. Need recommendation on best available one and which vendor to buy it from. Willing to spend the money to get a truly quality Rep.

Pam 187

I just received my PAM 187 from Puretime last week. I cannot take it off. The watch looks incredible in person and the handmade strap I put on it makes it look even more agressive. This watch is massive, heavy, and very close to the GEN... Lume is obviously rep, datewheel is sunken and the numbers are a bit thin, and the rubber strap it came on is not very nice. I was extremely pleased to find that the Chrono dials actually function. The top pusher starts the large second hand, and the dials at 3 and 6 keep track of minutes and hours. The bottom pusher stops it then the top resets it. I definitely recommend this watch.

Next to my MM20 for comparison

Crocodile,

I have a Pam187 and love it. My only issue is the Chrono does not reset to zero. (it resets to 1). I checked it upon arrival and it worked fine. I checked a week later and it wont reset to zero. I purchased it from a memeber here who I believe purchased it from Robert at Pure Time. The watch is so cool, I can live with it. The watch definately stands out in a crowd. You wont regret it.

Hey Croc Congrats on the Pam187. I was reading your post and observed you wrote that the top plunger starts the second hand and the bottom plunger stops and resets the second hand. Having a Gen Breitling Chrono, I assumed the top plunger was starting and stopping the sweeping second hand and that the bottom plunger resets the sweeping second hand to zero. I will try your method when I get home. (Wearing my GMTIIc Pro Hunter today). Hopefully this will cure my reset to zero problem.........

Here's my slytech, a fantastic watch though I think a bit hard to come by just now.

Asked Puretime if they can superlume the watch for me. Any other suggested mods??? Was thinking of stripping the AR with the possibilty of having it redone at a later date.

I think Silix has the same watch for less $$

Sam would kill me if I sold it to anyone else without him getting first shot and i've seen him up close, he is big and mean. Not that it is being sold, it's one of my favourites.

You should be able to zero the chrono one of two ways. Try this:

A) Pull the crown out to the 2nd position (the one typically used to set the date). Then press the bottom pusher until the second hand goes all the way around to the 12 again.

if this doesn't work try:

B) Pull the crown out to the 2nd position. press and hold both the top and bottom pushers at the same time till the had makes one full rotation. Then press the bottom pusher until the second hand goes all the way around to the 12 again.

Be very careful here. This watch has not been available for a while. Request pictures of actual watch with dated backgrounds from any seller. Just my opinion.

202 or 225 IMO bc you dont have to worry about date font or a sunken date wheel
