Hey guys! i've spent 2 weeks reading up PAM replicas,including PAM review guide(By brother ALE) which was extremely helpful and insightful.
As due to budget constraints, i have narrowed down into this two models .
I would really appreciate advises on a few things if you guys have time to spare.

The models are the PAM 005 and PAM 351 .
I have listed the TDs link as well.

http://watch-station.co/pam351-q-v6f...rap-p9000.html

If you would pick one out of these 3 which one would you guys choose?

Thank you so much, and look forward to hearing from you guys!
Appreciate the help!!

If you have read ALE's guide you must be aware that those 2 cases are different, one is 44mm and the other is 47mm.
One has sausage dial and the other has sandwich dial.
One is super rep and the other one is not.
One is made of stainless steel and the other one is made of titanium (which is more prone to scratches)
One is hand winding and the other one is automatic.

Both are beautiful watches but I'd prefer the 005 because the simplicity.

All depends on what you like.

Thanks for your advise elchino! I'm pretty much keen on both, but just trying to make up my mind on the accuracy on these two .

PAM 351 is 44mm not 47mm
One is Luminor Bettarini case and the othes is Luminor 1950 case

Go with pam005, it's a super rep. PAM351 has not at all the same "gen-like" feeling.

If you like the PAM351 with it's 44mm Luminor 1950's case, I would suggest you to go with PAM312.

Thanks for your input, may i ask what do you mean by gen-like feeling?
and if it were to be pam005 ,which model would you prefer out of the two links provided?
Thanks again.

I have both and this is what I would recommend:

005 for a more historic style
351 for a more modern / contemporary style

As for myself I find myself wearing the 005 more since I can match it with different straps much more easily than the 351 (due to the tobacco dial on the 351 it only matches brown straps). Maybe have a look at the 312 if you prefer the 1950 case (same as 351 just black dial).

005 is more accurate due to the closed caseback if you're wondering why it has a more gen like feel.

Hope this helps [emoji2]

It is one of the few really gen-like.
I had the 005 gen , and I can assure you that it's almost identical.
There are some tiny differences. In HV2 , mine , the bezel is a little bit higher. But no one will ever see.... ;)
