I have been desperately looking for a Pam 187 with a price under 200 USD

Having missed the Toro special at the last minute:facepalm:, I checked the Silix website and found this - still not sure whether it is in stock
http://www.silix-prime.so/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=115_152&products_id=3834

While browsing I also noted the following more economical one- eventhough it may not be a real alternative
http://www.silix-prime.so/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=116_233&products_id=4474

The big surprise is this slytech is in 42 mm - it could be a great remedy for me if it was in 47 mm:spank:

Let me have your thoughts about which one you would go for ( or help me to locate a better one - will be greatly appreciated):cheers:

I would spend a bit more time saving your money. You will get far more for your money paying for a good model than wasting on a cheap model. I've always stood by the motto 'buy cheap, buy twice'.

On dhgate I also found an advertisement as follows :
Factory Supplier Limited Edition Luxury AAA Top Quality PAM 187 PAM187G Submersible 1000m 47mm Stainless Steel Automatic Men's Watches Box(162924212)
http://www.dhgate.com/product/factory-supplier-limited-edition-luxury-aaa/162924212

As expected the photo on the listing belongs to a gen.

Many correspondences followed until I convinced the Seller to provide me the photo shots of the actual rep and here comes the disaster.:hehehe:

The numbers on the bezel are like simply glued - the material, fonts and sizes are different story. :beatahorse:(for ease see the attached photo))

Having seen this, my selection list from Silix would deserve AAAAA...+++

Afterall, really considering to give a trial to Slytech - if it is 42 mm, would give it as a gift to girlie perhaps :)

I agree completely with Bones
