My first PAM - Please help in deciding..

[rapid]

Hi guys,

Recently got in to the rep scene here at RWI really enjoy reading these forums, lots of knowledge! my first purchase being the narikaa Omega PO.. pretty happy with it considering it was £65! and had no problems over the past 6 months of ownership.

I've decided to treat myself to a nice rep PAM, I have $350-$400 to spend inc delivery.

I live in the UK so I would like to take in to consideration the best dealer to deal with, in terms of postage or if there's any issues.

I'm really struggling to decide which PAM to go for as my first.. I quite like the 112H and 113H with the white dial..

I've read DSN is a pretty good dealer to go with for PAMs..

I'm open to suggestions on which PAM and which dealer to go with! any help would be appreciated! There's so many models of PAM from so many dealers!!

Thanks,
R

I would go with DSN. His 112 dial is pretty good. You can try to find one second hand and invest the money you save on a toro cg and a nice crown.

But Coldi , DSN cas set doesn't fit Toro or LH CG .
The places of screw hole are different , only if do a big mod to the CG .
I ever had a bad nightmare about fit a Toro CG to DSN112 .

So I will suggest you a good rep 111 or 112 with DSN 112 dial .

I agree with going, dsn cases are are a headache to mod...

Thanks for the input so far guys, What other alternative dealers are there for the 112? I've seen DSN's is 'the ultimate 112' does this mean its the best option?

I've got no experience with modding a watch so I would probably stick with keeping it as per the dealers specification, unless the mods are low in cost and easily done.

2nd hand is definitely something I would consider.. I will take a look in the members sale area.

I love my Pam 187 Submersible. Its a big watch (47mm) if you like big watches.

Could always go pre-v

Or just splurge and buy a LH 112!
