Had never been a fan of PAM chrono's but this definitely caught my eye when it was released at the SIHH 2011 but surely it was overshadowed by its more famous cousin "The Bronzo". What attracted me to this babe was the "aged markers" aka Dirtylume. When Angus released news that Noob is about to released the PAM356, I've decided to jump on the bandwagon and get me one of those immediately! Alas a few days of waiting and QC, its just arrived fresh outta Angus's new office i believed!

Some Quick & "Dirty" pics taken with my IP5, i take some better pics when i get home.

some quick comments:
Its quite hefty in weight and it feels like it has much more presence than other 44mm PAMs, probably due to the chrono pushers. The leather strap bundled is nice and thick, extrudes a strong smell of leather too.

last words:
So if ya still siting on the fence thinking if you should pull the trigger on the new Dirtylight, i'll say go for it!

Cheers
Ash

wow you have sharp eye mate! indeed its the rep Ferretti strap!

anyway just to add, here are some pics of the stock rep strap that came with the watch, its nice, thick and has a strong calf leather scent. thread colour is supposedly to match the vintage lume markers.

Thanks

Apparently it's just an issue with all 7753 movements. Second hand @9 can slip/wobble a bit when held at certain angles. Might be describing that wrong since I've never seen it, but I'm about to take the plunge on this watch. Just looks too damn good.
