KW PAM382, Details = PERFECT?

[Kramer]

The number of QC's issued per day is helpful in calculating likelihood of receiving my orders within 1 day or the second stock batch etc.

I am happy to wait for the TSW buckles to come out but being close to the shipping date I was hoping that there may be some news of the manufacture timeline or initial production batch quality results etc. I suspect the buckles will need some handling in order to accelerate the patina to match the 382.

I don't need answers for either of these matters but it makes the wait and anticipation more exciting.

I already have the watch and the buckle on pre-order. Cheers

Sead just posted some updated pics on RG:

 

[rolexwatchfan]

Pearl color hasn't changed, seems bit flatter only.
Haters release in 1.....2.....3

 

[Sultan Brunei]

Pearl color still green like stabillo

 

[bpdd]

Pearl surrounding, Bezel edges, Bezel markers 15/30/45 and the dots ... all doesn't seem polished ... may be due to the bad pics ... but right know it looks like they aren't polished

15/30/45 also look crooked ...

Hey and im not a hater im on the pre order list ...

 

[slaughterer62]

And ...... <(drum roll)> .... it is ..... imperfect (as expected).

It really isn't a bad watch. Of course there are plenty of flaws but what rep doesnt have flaws. I do like the CG better on this one. I am happy with my ZF but still may get the KW as well (I want one naturally aged and one chemically aged). The lume color is a bit off-putting with the intensity of the green but that is also a problem that can be easily fixed by a re-lume job....

But just on the Pearl ... Dial/Hands lume has a green hue on the gen also

Ooops.. For those who didn't go reading Sead's thread, I forgot to mention he said it's not ready yet and needs few updates, but you know... QC pics should be on their way already, so I don't know what could be updated at this point, if anything will be updated that is.

 

[slaughterer62]

Updates ... lol .... maybe for V2 ...

Why NOT TO WAIT for definitive and final QC pics (no whitish) to continue the comments
There are a lot of no useful post

I did :hehehe: Those pictures seem to be of the same sample watch as before. Sead is fueling up the upcoming sales.

because you already posted comments about it before. ..Like post #229.

So much for Soras quote about KW not liking to post pre production pics.
Not sure my pre order dollars will be well spent if the 12 o'clock markers will look like this latest pic, crooked and slightly tilted.
I consider that a pre release fail.

[Thrasher]

WOW not what I expected or even hoped for

 

[sanankid]

Chill out. This is worse than the tc v6 thread...

 

[eshow3907]

Even in pre-production there are some clear visual KW enhancements over the ZF, as it is she looks like a very nice watch even at ~500 usd. We all know how bad poor dealer spec photos can make a great piece look. If the QC pics start coming in and the small blemishes they have already acknowledge as being fixed before shipping are fixed, this could be a historic release.

Then let the breakdown of ZF, KW, and GEN begin!

As you can see prints on the back side so thick compare to the gen

 

[Kramer]

Has anyone received QC pics as yet? I thought that they should have started by now.
