Gentlemen.

Owning a couple of gens and about 6-8 reps, I now want to try the lovely Pams you got around your wrists.
OK, I wanted to buy the Noob PAM 390. TD says not available.
OK, no problem, give me the Noob 112. TD says not available.

Can you recommend me a base luminor, given the situation that factories/tds are mashing up parts?
Which model/factory would you choose, if you want a gen like and basic appearance?

Thank you very much in advance.

Seems like "base" is a keyword...

pam 000 is the answer then.

PAM 111 v3 from noob factory is a good option. It's a very popular watch. Also, ask a different TD if he can get the PAM 390 or the 112.

Anyway, take a look at ALE's PAM guide. Click here

There's PAM634 if you fancy the blue logo. PAM176 for a titanium 112. My guess is you prefer having 9 marker to the secs subdial?

Which TD did you contact? Maybe you have not done an exhaustive search?

Gentlemen.

Thank you all for your input. You were really helpful.

My preference was this
390
000 [MENTION=91775]myor[/MENTION]
112
111 [MENTION=96610]Pamfan47[/MENTION]
005
634 [MENTION=117235]ihs0yz[/MENTION]

I got the 111 v4 from
Sora, as the only watches he could get is 111 and 005.

Maybe he does not do his best. Besides that he couldnt get the watches above 111, I ordered another watch and he got the wrong factory model. Result is, he does not change for correct model and also gives no refund. Pretty lame in my opinion.

The PAM390 from H factory is a great choice and VERY cheap.

If it was he who got the factory model wrong he should have it changed at his cost, no..? Odd.

Anyway, there are some 47mm base models you could check out as well.. 372 comes to mind.
