Can you identify this PAM683-Rep?

[JayBee0815]

I bought this PAM683 a year ago via Aliexpress on the cheap (160€). Just wanted to check, how the 42mm Version fits on my wrist. But the cheapie is better as I expected. The movement runs since then with an accuracy of better than +/- 2sec a day, which is astonishing for this price. Off course there are some flaws, like the missaligned markers on the bezel. Unfortunately I don´t know anything about this Rep. Is it maybee a light version of a known Factory? Maybee you can help me? Which movement is it? Here are some pics. Thanks in advance.

Hello!
Movt is seagull.
I have no complaints about it, it is stable, and cheap in case of replacement, in general, good, as long as we do not talk about the appearance, or about the gen function.
This factory makes a lot of cheap reps that are sold on Ali, dhgate, and some dealers.
This is neither bad nor good, it corresponds to its price, and there are more than many drawbacks, take at least the solid caseback from gen, or screw rods instead of a quick change system.
It's good that this is a steel model, because they also usually make Ti models from SS.
If you are happy with this watch, well, this is really a way out for minimal money, but at the same time, if you like it, then you will definitely be delighted with VSF.
It makes no sense to compare their accuracy, because the price is different.

Thanks for this quick answer KOT1917
Yes, this was just an experiment to get a feeling for the size and I was indeed positively suprised. Off course you can´t compare it with a VSF and it is useless to compare it with Gen. Some VSFs are on my wanted list ;-)

If you are satisfied with the size, then there is plenty to choose from, now the 42mm submersibles segment gives you quite a lot of choice. There are small questions to them in relation to gen, but I'm sure this transition to VSF or old XF will give you a lot of positive emotions.
