Hfac PAM111P

[sasa408]

New improved hfac 111? I looked for info on Ale's guide but none found. Anyone knows how this stands up to the noob v4?

It says "This product was added to our catalog on Thursday 26 March, 2015."

So I wonder if it is something really new or if it just a gimmick of being a P series.

I see. This must just be the hfac v2

And it's 100 bucks more expensive than Noob V3

Well the noob with swiss Y incabloc actually cost more.

You're right S! Would you buy it with the swiss Y incabloc? Actually im looking for a 111 and i was missing that point.

Well I currently own a noob v3 with y incobloc and other movement mods. Imo its more cosmetic but knowing the flaws always bug me. If I were to buy another 111, this will probably be the one.

I agree with you, knowing the flaws would bug me too.
I'll choose the swiss Y incabloc.
Thank you for the info!

I rather go with the Noob knowing that they are now transitioning to v4 case. Ive always regarded hfac pams as a lower quality/budge version of super rep pams. The latest case has good shape but inaccurate finishing. As for the 111, i believe the dial inscription colour is too white and lume is wrong. Movement deco is slightly inferior to Noob too.

This is rep is not yet included in PAM GUIDE
It is almost impossible to get updated the PAM GUIDE from the end of 2014
There are a lot of new reps and few information

The situation is more or less as commented by kampachi

This is a rep from H makermade with the new 2015 H maker case, the movement is the same as previous versions but fitted ith a GEN Incabloc and lyre spring. The Swan Neck spring and screw are completeley wrong as always

Caseset is nicely finished but inaccurately, edges are sharper and the bezel has sherper transition edges and seemingly higher base ( really noticeable)

Dial is worse and less deep than Noob sandwich dial

As commented by kampachi better go to the Noob V4 caseset, being caraful with QC pics to assure as most as possible V4 parts (mainly crown and midcase). It would be difficult to get areally good V4 CG lever.
