Identifying my 087

Hi Risti's,

Just received a 087 via M2M.
Wanted to try a 087 because I'm in love with the dial but don't really like the case thickness/diameter ratio.

I thought that only H-factory made this but judging from the price I payed (and the previous owner) it's not an H.

So I'm asking all you experts on here: what is it?

If other pictures are needed I'm glad to provide them.

Thnx!

Could you post caseback and sideprofile? Both sides, CG and the oposite?

Why do you say this isn't an h factory watch? It looks like HF to me.

It looks good whatever it is. I'm sure it's HF. Ask @ale.

I used to have an Hfac and it was exactly the same.

Does your pearl look different? [emoji848][emoji848]
Might just be the lighting.

It is most likely only a lighting condition induced difference.

It does highlight the rather scratched up condition of the pearl housing as well as the other parts of the bezel which may account for the lower price (how much did you pay for it?). Also more importantly, it highlights the nice textured dial which is a prominent feature of the H-fac version. So it is still most likely an H-fac release.

I paid $172,- which is way lower then any H-fac I've seen on here or at the sister forums.

Pearl is scratched but I don't mind that much.
It's supposed to be an older watch anyway.

^you got a good deal.

The TD's have over priced this watch at $360ish. That's way too much for what it's worth IMO.

Yep, certainly a nice deal. For the pricing, well, the factories are partly to blame since dealers probably just tack on a standard profit depending on what the factories sell them for and how much the market is willing to pay for the watches.

@mysterio:
Is your conclusion from what I've shown you that it's an H-fac?


Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met RWI

Yes. It is an H-fac. If nothing else, the dial of the PAM087 was so well done by H-factory it's almost impossible to have been done again by another factory and that's what I see in your rep.

Agreed. You got a very good deal OP. Enjoy.
