Considering my 1st PAM

[watchwatchwatch12345]

In general I always go with a noob watch vs the H factory. I own 15 rep Pam's.......one kuvarsit, four h factory and the rest Noobs. Every one of my H factory Pam's I just am not satisfied with.....less attention to details with these watches. Noob and Kuvarsit you really get a sense that they are trying to build a nice watch.....the attention to details are critical to rep watch quality and satisfaction at least in my book.

If i have the cash I will buy noob! but they do cost quite a bit after your collection starts growing! and there aren't a way to stop that from happening!! lol

Op have you considered the boutique edition ones like the 416 or 417?

I would also go with 111 noob v3 for the first PAM,and don't get caught with strap thing lol

+1 for the 111 over the 390

If it holds any weight at all...and you are looking for another factor to judge on to break the tie - have a look at the table I posted here - http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=169562

Even without compete numbers the 111 scores a massive 257, while the 390 only rates a lowly 37

If you are really into the 390 look, Id go with a 000.

You gotta allow for a few different styles of strap - Asso, Ammo, Croc, Rubber and you have four very different looks from one watch.

I love PAM too and I think the 390 is the best choice to start

I just added a noob 372 and H Factory 390 to my pam collection today. I have to say, for $189 you can't beat the value of the 390 on asso. It's an outstanding rep. I also have a 111 and if I had to choose between the two, I reckon I'd have to flip a coin to decide.
