They use man made grown in lab sapphire same as the gen, but in low cost process so the quality between rep vs gen sapphires is much better on the gen... CMIIW

Thanks for the info. I'll try to talk to them to see how to remove the mark. Or a possible replacement.
I am seriously in love with this Tuttonero... Only my flat but 6.25" wrist is stopping me from buying, I just gave away an AP ROO 44MM for this reason, does this wear smaller in your opinion?

Well I think it would definitely wear smaller due to the fact that the lugs are much shorter than on AP's, so it would wrap around your wrist with a better fit.
I wear a 44mm 1950 case PAM on a 6.4 inch wrist without any issue

This is a great to read! I will figure out whether the Tuttonero or a classic SS one and I will pull the trigger

It seems that I won't have my tuttonero... My 438 has been blocked in customs and I don't hace solutions from the TD (Toro)... Damn
I thought the TD here cover customs seizure risk? Maybe it's just being held while they work out tax to pay?

It seems exactly that... They stopped two watches. One pam 438 tuttonero from Toro and one pam 508 V6F from Sead. I know both make reshipments in case of returning goods but it is not sure how they send back items...
I appreciate sugestiones of course. Is there any section of the forum to ask these questions??
Hi, would anyone know whether the anti reflective coating is applied on the inside or outside of the watch crystal? I recall reading that this watch only has single AR. I'm trying to remove a scratch on the crystal and trying not to ruin the AR in case it is painted on the outside. Which I highly doubt so as it really looks quite reflective. Can anyone confirm that? Thanks.
Sorry to hear that mate.
Give the seizing letter to Toro and Sead, I'm pretty sure they'll sort it out.
Most PAMs have a single inside AR coatings.
Yeah. Was aware of the single sided AR. Would the AR coat be painted on the inside or the outside?
I'm planning to get some diamond paste to polish off the scratch. But if the AR is painted on the outside then I wouldn't want to ruin it. It could blurr the crystal and make it worse.

It honestly wears more like an AP Diver. The bezel is actually 42mm. The case is 44mm. My sig is all to scale so you can make that comparison.
The 18mm thickness is scary but 2.5mm of that is domed crystal, so it doesn't have the visual heft of a truly thick slab-sided watch like the DSSD or the thicker-than-gen rep ROO chronos. The lugs are a bit longer than the standard luminor case, but they're quite low which also makes it wear smaller. You'll be fine.
I'm a noob and I can guarantee there is no AR on the rep sapphire, would be questioning if it is sapphire and scratching easily, should be a lot harder than glass
Can some one tell me , this is the movement of the Gen 438 and the engraving on the Rep is different . Are 2 model of P9001/B movement make by Pam ?
Because I hear a lot that the one in the rep is a accurate as the Gen.
Thanks

Go with the KW/V6F version, it's cheaper, balance wheel @6o'clock (closer to the gen than the 7750 version), reliable movt.

If price don't matter, always de seagull ?
This is better movement that the 7750 ?
Thanks
