My PAM113 - a thank you to Bozz

[pukka]

I'm looking forward to the comparison too - summer will be here soon and I want to be wearing the PERFECT 113!

Do a lume shot!!!!

Ale did a huge comparison on gen vs HF vs Noob dial on repgeek. I don't know if it is here. Either way, there are pluses and minuses to both. I was looking at my Noob last night and I love it. The only thing I am in the process of doing is changing the hands to that which has a much whiter Lume. I think noob hands are nice but the Lume is too green. I have some DSN incoming. Here is a pic of my Noob with some Ebay hands. The seconds hands from Ebay would not reach my seconds pin unfortunately so I am hoping DSN will. Plus the seconds hand in DSN is all black, no silver center like the Noob's.

Hands are from WSO? Good to build an older series than N-series.

You cannot mate, both dials comes with a wrong subdial. Gen subdial is slightly recessed, HF and Noob are flushed... you can build a very nice rep, but not perfect

(unnoticeable at naked eye)

well, yeah, aside from Gen, Ill settle for best version available. Maybe thats HF dial in Noob case.

You are making the 113 really tempting mate. Though I highly doubt I'd wear it a lot, I may just get this piece on rubber accordion for the summer

I agree Matthew; the white dial PAM is not an everyday wear. However, I wear either a 177 or a 111 as my daily beater to work, and nobody ever notices. Wore this 113 that I just threw together to a work do on Friday and everybody who spotted it commented on how nice it is. Most people (myself included) couldn't care less about the recessed subdial on the wrist, and only us obsessive-types care about the slightly yellow tint, when you can't even see it under indoor lighting in a crowded room. Love it!

 

[Bozz]

Yes the recessed subdial is impossible to see at naked eye and not so evident under a loupe. Regarding the yellowish tint, I never noticed it on HF dials. On Noob dial a pale tint is there.
I confirm, the white dial gets noticed and gets a lot of compliments. It's unusual and beautiful!

Here's my Noob. Now with DSN hands. Finally got rid of the ugly green Lume.
