Need opinion on my PAM 127

[Athaya]

Dear RWI members,

I just got a PAM 127 from my friend, this is a nice gift and a very nice PAM to my collection.

I never saw a 127 GEN or REP directly before, so I can't give any opinion on this 127. I had took some picture from in front, back and side and I hope it's enough for you guys to give your opinion on this 127. Any opinion will be a very usefull information for me and for all of us I hope.

Let's start from the front look. As I assume, this 127 seems don't have any AR coating, coz the glass look so white and for me its a little foggy and also it has the hand reflection when i took the photos. what do you guys think about this front look.. ?

Let's go to the side look. again, please share your opinion on this side look especially for the front glass, compare with photos on the net, it seems that the front glass dont really in in a dome shape.

Let's continue on the back look. This will be the most important part especially with the movement. I know its a manual hand wind movement, but I dont have any idea what type of movement it is (unitas, asian, swiss), it don't have any dagger or swan neck.

Regards,

Athaya

theres no OP name on it... and also that 2 looks bad as well, so far thats all i could tell, and im not an expert

I hate to say it, but is that face slightly off? It appears to be rotated just a little clockwise...

 

[cloneman]

ya i thought it was the 2 but now i see there is something wrong with it big time

i hope u paid less than 100 for that

@ci1031 I got it from a friend as a gift, even this pam not so good, but its good enought as a gift

what face part do u mean.. the hand . ? if you mean the hand on the 2nd picture, then its not slightly off, its the hands reflection on the front glass.

 

[cloneman]

the 2 looks off

but hey as a gift, be happy

the accuracy of this rep is kindda low, the entire dial is turned clockwise, the lugs are too fat, and the case, in the ends at the lugs has too little fade down on the upper side, and the bottom side, is too steep....hard to explain. But if you don't mind "all" the 150 people in your country, who has ever seen a gen fiddy, knowing that yours is a rep, then just wear the hell out of it

but would I call you out on it.... nope =)

@trksh-bzr, yes the accuracy is very low, I had tried to compare with gen pictures from the net, and my 127 got a lots noticeable difference maybe this is a 1st edition rep. hehehehehe.

how bout the crystal ? what do you think that cause the hand shadows on inside on the front glass, is it because a NON AR Coated glass ..? (you can see the shadow on the 2nd picture)

and about the movement, anyone know what type of movement is it..?

for the appearance, I will try to put a nice handmade strap on it, and i hope it can help the whole appearance on it less look on the body, but have a good look on its strap and sometimes nice straps can cover a bad look on your watch

:lol: Found some thread you made,,

Notice you buy pam 339 to forum dealer,, I got one in here too.

You should saving money to buy more decent reps

The movement i think is asian 6497 but different factory will have different quality. For example i got this sold to someone, bad AR, no swan neck decorated, but have nicer look than you have there,,
