Hi guys,
absolutely loved my PAM 111m noob from pure time as a first time replica buy.
(strange it didn't do much for me on internet I thought I was always an omega sort of a lad< but I listened to some forum advice, and could not of been happy.)
Unfortunately after 2 months it has broke with a small curled wire rattling around - it's no go on the wind, and the engine works shortly when I shake it madly, but the seconds hand does not move.
When I first got it it would not last 12hrs on the wind so I pulled the case back off and tighten the winding gear to level it with the other gear. All was then good (for a while) with a 56hr reserve
Of course I pulled it apart after it broke(crudely) and scratched the rear steel display bezel jigger on the case back thingo!
What should I do? Watch maker availability is low where I am.
Should I just buy the 2012 111N noob. I have the rubber strap (which i actually really like - even though I wanted brown crocodile)
Should I upgrade to the "swiss" movement for $90. (I know some have opinions about this - I have read them, but my std one didn't last long.)
Should I send it somewhere and get it fixed up ?
While I contemplate I'm spending hours looking at the other beatuiful options.
PS I would really like the peace of mind of some water proofing combined with the amazing view i get from the clear display case back when winding.
