After stating that I dislikled the golden hands before, I suddenly fell in love with this beauty and pulled the trigger. So I just got sent my QC pics, won't name the TD but I just got my QC pics, smething seems off to me. Maybe the color (could be the lighting), but it seems too yellow? What do you guys think or am I being a pain in the a$$:02.47-tranquillity:? Please help.

Once You "feel" there is something off there probably is. Overall it looks good (I´m by no means a specialist on this model and took only a brief look) but in detail something feels off too. Is it the marker/dial at 11 or is it supposed to be that way? Would annoy me...
You are buying it, take a look at a dozen others if they look equal, golden hands included. Otherwise request a new one. You have to like it. Myself I like the soothing calm of the small PAM´s seconds hand to go with the dial so this one isn´t for me anyway.
Timegrapher results are not offered by all TD´s and they give only a vague indication of the movements health if the watch timegraphed is the same sent to You. I normally don´t need it. Good luck with Yours:)

To me, it looks like the distortion in the crystal (not sure how much this model should have, if any). I would recommend you check ALEs pam guide to be sure on the version you are getting to see if there are any postings pertaining to the items you are noticing.

Thanks guys,yes I have been reading Ale's guides, man is he thorough! But I still can't shake the feeling that something is off. Maybe I'm just imagining things lol because this is my first PAM.

Don't see anything wrong with the watch and I will accept this anytime. As for timegrapher, don't bother to ask if you did not receive any, nothing useful at all.......

Judging from the color of the hands, there seems to be something influencing the color of the dial. I don't see what's wrong with the marker @11 either.

Accept it! The factories have this watch down and perfected. There's no way the lume formula could just magically change for no reason.

I would accept it without thinking. Color is a bit weird but these could be Sead's pics that are taken by iPhone and are always a bit yellowish.

Yes, it's just a wrong colour balance. Look at the stichings in a strap. They are yellow as well. I'm not an expert with pics, but this look a bit more like in real life.
