First time rep buyer needs help with PAM111 QC

[Tin]

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. After doing some research, I decided to go for my first rep with the PAM 111 Noob V4.

Made payment with TD on 2nd May and I just received the QC pictures.

Need some help with what exactly I should ask from the TD as I am some doubts after viewing the QC pics.

I am wondering if the front view watch is showing a damaged case. Only 1 pic is provided of that view and the whole middle to right side seems to show a really big gap.

Also, should I be asking for some lume shots and for pics under natural light? The lighting in the QC pics makes it hard to see engravings etc.

It's my first buy so I'm not experienced with what to look out for. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you guys!

Looks good imho, however the only concern I can see is the crown pin isnt flush at all. I don't own a 111 let alone have done much research, but after a quick image search of a gen, the crown pin looks off.

What gap are you referring to?

Thanks for your reply. Ya you are right I didn't notice about the crown pin.

Regarding the gap, I'm referring to the space between the bezel and the case. I'm not sure about the correct watch term but it looks like the metal case isn't uniform with the bezel area. I know there isn't a bezel but I'm not sure what is the correct term to use.

I think the watch looks good. Lighting is very distorting on some areas of the watch making it look like there are gaps and spaces but it looks solid to me. Crown pin you can gently tap back in flush but carefully as to not scratch the crown guard or damage anything. Other PAM nuts might chime in as well but I say shes a keeper. LUME shot you might want to ask the TD for

Thank you! I will ask TD for more shots. Didn't know that the 'gap' can be due to distortion.

it looks great. if you are going to ask for more photos , ask for one of the "officine Paneria" on the movement. Some of the noob 111 have bad engravings. Otherwise i'd say it looks fantastic

Adding my 2 cents. I would approve the pics asap and get it on your wrist. The cg pin can be pressed in flush with a piece of wood. And all other aspects look good. BTW, judging by the picks the TD your working with is fantastic. I got my 111 from the same seller.

Thanks guys for the replies. Will ask TD for some additional shots but from the replies it seems that this is indeed a terrific rep. Thanks again for the input, they have definitely been helpful. Forgive me if I broke any rules as I wasn't aware of any regarding QC pic posts. Still a newbie to this forum and I look forward to being a part of this community

I see.. thanks for sharing. My main concern the spaces and gaps that I saw in the QC pics. However, I've been enlightened that it is possibly due to the light distortion. Will take note of the QC pic rules in the future. Thanks bro!
