High, just a few pics here of my latest edition to my quite already large collection of replica watches. This one is from Josh of perfect clones as are most of my watches that I have bought so far are also from Josh. This is not a review as I don't class myself as quite experienced enough on the subject yet. Anyway enjoy the pics guys.

Boy I really like that watch. Lovely contrast between the black and yellow/blue highlights. It's a shame that I have wrists that are too small to wear it. I tried one on at at GTG and it just swallowed my arm.

Really sharp looking though.

Looks great; is the blue strap just a tease? Would love to see what it looks like together.

Blue strap is included with the watch when you purchase it as part of a promo. Here's just to give you an idea of what a blue strap would look like on a dark case like that of the PAM616.

Great watches fella,love the fiddy which is high on my list of watches I want in my collection.
As for the 616,I absolutely love this watch.I had the same watch & I made the mistake of wearing it for work,I'm a maintenance spark & sometimes I can get dirty as I work in all sorts of domestic environments.
I religiously cleaned the watch & sometimes took it off if the job would be dirty
Anyway the winding action started to get harder to the point of not working so Its in my draw at present & it hurts me not been able to wear it (sad eh[emoji6])
It's going to get replaced if I can't fix it,
I use Josh all the time too,I wouldn't use anyone else at the moment,I'm currently waiting for my 2nd XF V2 PAM671

Well with this watch having spring bars and drilled lugs it's a quick
change so I tried the top side of the strap to see what the contrast looks like. From my opinion it looked shite and didn't match. I'll post a pick later with the blue strap on and you can see for yourself. Not saying it wouldn't match up with another watch as the quality is decent, just not this one in IMHO. End of the day a free strap is no downfall to the watch itself.

I wouldn't dare wear mine for work as my job is even dirtier as a joiner/ carpenter, especially with the dust i cause when planing , cutting wood etc. I'm on my 10th watch from Josh in just 6 months lol. By the way the 127 is top KW version!

The one included don't look half as good as that one mysterio. Maybe it'll look better with a worn in / aged look after a while. What you think?

Ah, I see what you mean... I'm not a fan either. However the nubuck-looking strap, with minor distressing posted by myterio works much better than the pack-in.

Now here's an interesting combo I found via a google search.

Yep I think there are loads of worn distressed/ dirty type of combo browns would work with this watch.

The rubber is back in the meantime while i scour the internet for a worthy alternative. It's only a 5 minute change including the screw in buckle with correct tools!

Well it's a rep strap so it's okay in a pinch. Definitely it's not going to be anything like the strap I posted which is a Simona. :)

Still.. could flog it on EBay for probably £30 and put it towards a quality one. After all it was a freebee so can't complain.

Definitely. I've sold off some of the straps that came with the watches for 30-40$ each.
