H-fac DLC PAM 111?

[J_North]

So I'm looking for an all black PAM 111, and so far the H-fac DLC (http://www.kuvarsit-watch.com/panerai/panerai-pam111-dlc-from-h-factory/) is the only one that meets my requirements.

I've searched through the Reference Guide, but the H-fac DLC isn't mentioned. I've also searched but found no real answer on how good it is compared to a Noob V3. Could someone clarify this?
Or are there any other black pams with a sandwich dial, a green lume (so not the salmon-ish color like the 375, 438) and the sec@9? I just can't seem to find any...

DLC 111 is a fantasy watch...which means panerai never made one. Read ALEs review section on the 111.

I know it's a fantasy watch, that's not what I'm after. I would like to know how the DLC from the link I posted compares to the Noob V3.

PAM 111 Noob V3 has polished case and the watch you want is DLC coated. No possible comparison regarding finish and colour
If you like a reply about shape and structure accuracy read:

Regarding sandwich dial Noob is more accurate and gen-like

Thanks ALE, that clears up some things... I feel stupid now for overlooking such a big guide.

No worries mate
The most important is getting the info

When we say read the guide, we really do mean READ the guide. It's not like you have to read through all of that in one sitting. Just read on the model you're looking at very carefully.

Will do that from now on! The thing I was worried about is that there was no mention of the 111 H-fac DLC in the review guide (at least not under the PAM 111 section). So if I understand correctly the watch I linked to in the first post is the hfac N/M (which is slightly inferior to the V3) but just in a DLC case, correct?

The guide is a reference for those who would like to know about the level and quality of replication to gens. The DLCed 111 is not a gen spec watch, hence you won't see it in the guide. However, after checking the guide, you can bespoke (or customize) the super rep, the most common of which is coating the case. This is also done with gens. Examples of steel cased PAMs getting this treatment are the PAM111, PAM390 and the PAM243.
