This rep has some caseset shape flaws
- CG shape is not completely accurate, because PAM 024 C-series CG is not completely flat in the upper surface, because CG shape starts curved in the side touching the case (following cushion shape) and then the curved shape is decreasing to a flat line in the outer circular upper edge of the CG. Few noticeable for no trained eyes but, anyway, existent.
- Bezel rounded edge is sharper in rep as above commented by Bozz
- Rep Lug is thinner than gen
- Lug holes are place clearly higher than gen
- Lug lower edge is curved in gen and straight in rep
- Lug flat base is clearly smaller in rep
You can see in above pic the lug shape differences and the lug holes position. See the difference of dimensions A and B between gen and rep
In RG there is started a thread talking about this matter:
http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=262919
In this tread is proposed a modd that I have illustrated in below pic:
It remains still to be discussed the size of the pearl which seems a bit smaller than gen, and the contour of the bezel holes to insert the pearl and the polished dots markers that seem overpolished and deformed in some rep catalogues (see Puretime).

Thanks Ale! Anyway it looks fantastic IMO.
And btw... do you think those flaws are because they took the actual 024 gen for reference? So in that case maybe they will make the actual 024 and 025 more accurate...
What do you think Ale?

Hi kaniel
I honestly think that the shape of the new PAM 024 is almost the same as old one, or even fatter. Edges are also really sharper and better definied in the new case. As you can see in previous Bozz video.

Something new that you can post immediately at your Scheißgeist forum [emoji23]

How is this one in comparison to DSN's Swiss version? I thought that one is quite ok already...

Despite the flaws of the new rep from KW we are talking about another level of quality, means and ambitions
ALE
Is this the same model? I noticed that the bezel in this post is shiny when the one from the site is brushed.

If I'm not wrong the polished version has the Tritium dial (T SWISS MADE T) and the brushed version as you've posted has Luminova dial (L SWISS MADE L). The only difference is the material used in the lume and the polishing on the case.
