Is this Pam382 a Gen?

Only one pic doesn't help, but I'm pretty sure it's gen.
Chamfering under CG is perfect, knurling of bezel as well, CP looks flush.
If you want to be 110% sure you need a pic of the movement, 7750 has balance wheel at 11, seagull at 6 and gen at 7.

From the color tone I'd say it is a gen, but the easiest way to find out is the movement for sure.
You can tell straight away by looking at the bevelled edge of the bezel. And the bronze rim of the pearl, thin like ZF but rounded edge like KW. That there's a gen.
This picture was actually taken from another forum by someone asking how much does this watch values as it was a gift given by someone.
Then the forumer start to doubt whether it's Gen or Rep just by judging by the fact it's a gift so it might be a rep. And lots of debating going with opinion and not facts and reason.
However here in this wonderful community, your guys are equipped with superb skills and talent which can decipher a Watch confidently just by looking at a picture.
This also tell us how ignorant are those just buying and choose to ignored the existing of good rep. Because this is where the real knowledge is...RWI has more information than any Gen forum out there. Thanks guy.

You need to look at the upper part of the side of the bezel, it's highly polished and defined. Nothing like any rep zf or kw

So you are saying, the easiest way to define a rep/gen is by looking at the upper part of the side bezel, if it is polished, it is gen. If it is not polished, it is a rep?
If the chamfer isn't large enough but polished (ZFactory) or it's not polished at all (KW) it's a rep.
<sigh>
You know-it-all bastards are ruining the reps for me. How the hell can i unsee all this?
Not possible. It involves an ungodly amount of alcohol, a box of gloves and KY jelly. Hey, you asked. :lol:
