Watch comes from KW/AMANDA
Absolutely perfectly finished REP by KW, hardly visible any difference with the gen, which is also a pretty rare watch.
Limited Only to 50pcs.
This rep was released in its current version in Q1 this year. (A.D.2015)
So it's one of the latest relases from KW known as V6F

Let's see it a bit more in depth:

Crystal is sapphire with colorless single AR. As usual with most PAMs (gen and reps),
AR is not the best and the crystal catches reflection of the surroundings pretty easily. No readability problems though, and it's really colorless.

Dial to me looks flawless.

Hands lume application on this rep seems to be perfect.

The 586 Q features a black sandwich dial with small seconds at nine.

The color is spot on as far as I can tell, so are the numbers and hands shape. The sandwich effect is deep and the dial itself has a nice semi-matte finish.

Inscriptions are correct, crisp and glossy.

CP is not perfectly flush, but the flaw is barely noticeable by naked eye.

CG shape is brushed and almost perfect as usual with KW reps, inner corners are sharp and fitment is just perfect. Lever shuts tight with a nice click.
Location of CG engravings and engravings itself looks correct.

I cannot see differences between KW case-set version and gen photos. Brushed with polished bezel finish, it’s directions etc. - looks exactly gen-like.
From side it may look pretty thick.

Caseback is closed on this rep, engravings are deep with "Tribute to Brazil" engraving and it seems to be in correct size and placement of inscriptions.

well known A-7750 based P.9001 movement without working power reserve and 24h GMT function instead of GEN 12h GMT
As the PAM586 uses an Asian7750 movement, the GMT uses the day wheel to advance, so it's a 24 hour.
The gen PAM586 and other GMT has a 12 hour cycle.

158g weight with strap

it feels pretty solid and has a great gen-like feeling.

Not the best finished inside part of the caseback.

Apart of that
-CONCLUSION-

All in all, I can only say this is surely one perfectly finished watch made by KW, exeptional caseback design. I'm very happy I had the opportunity to buy one.
The look and feel are exceptional on the wrist. Definitely a first class bordering super rep and a must for every PAM lover!

Thanks Shewie for this nice and informative review

The closed caseback is a good advantage for the evaluation of this rep

Unfortunately the Gen GMT function of 12 hrs is currently impossible to be repped, that is an evident flaw of this nice rep

If no more evident flaws I could agree about a First Class bordering Super rep status or High level due to GMT difference

I will include this link in PAM GUIDE

Thanks again
