Sorry for hijacking topic but wanted to ask a quick question in relation to watches mentioned.
What's the difference between some of the Pam292 ceramic watches being $388 and on other dealers they appear to be around $100 cheaper but same watch from what I can see.

Please read about that the PAM GUIDE, lot of info.
Most likely you are talking about two different replicas of the same watch: expensive from Noob factory and less expensive from H maker.
The only clear difference is that Noob has ceramic crown. Maybe following Noob indications it has better ceramic quality, but we don't know it with certainty.
Really no a complete and definitive answer until this moment

Sorry

1. There's no best rep 113 or 114 dial so far .
2. Swiss 6497-1 is far from Gen .

Good thing vac has a 113 OEM dial for sale. Modded Asian would be better than Swiss.

ok thanks guys. Im in the watch thing for years, but only know about genuine stuffs. Rep world is a very interesting world, but also very complex. And it seems very hard to get super rep watches with accurate parts and suitable movements....unless you got great knowledge

David has a new 113 dial and hand set that where not 100% perfect comes very close to gen from super lume down to the recessed sub second dial. Use a noob V3 case and WOW

And here is my Swiss OEM ETA 6497-1 movement modded to run at 21600vph like gen.

I think the dial and hand set combined with a noob 111 V3 and Swissafied would be a hell of a watch, this is what I have proposed to the OP. When I have the time I will build one for myself.

The OP is new confused and can't decide what he wants, lets remember we were all new once....

Best of out the box without any mods - PAM 243M v2 submersible, 390 , 005.
For open case back models like 111m and PAM 127 Fiddy,
you will need the following mods to make it extreme high accuracy :
1. Incabloc mod
2. Longer swan neck screw
3. Polish flat rachet and crown screw
4. Polished shine Cannon Pinion (optional)
These will cost easily roughly US$350 inclusive of shipping.

thx a lot joe. You re right im a little confused, so much things going thru my mind right now....Dont know if i should get once from you with mods, get a genuine one and not eat until the end of this year (lol), get one from you and spend the rest of my money on another watch project (tag monaco, beaume&mercier capeland...)....

You re right im confused. I might love your watch but im afraid i will have the desire to go for a gen one in a few months. I will def let you know shortly, and thanks a lot for your help anyways !!! i might also pick a couple of super rep from you too (113 and 183....)....still thinking
