Hello all,

I have been researching PAMs for the last week or so, and I have scoured Ale's guide.

I have come to the conclusion that I am interested in purchasing a Noob V3 026k as my first PAM (even though I am right handed)

I was curious before I made this purchase whether any new information had been released related to new PVD or Ceramic "Super Reps?"

I see some very good looking 202a, 360, and 441 models but I have also seen reviews stating they are not exactly "Super Reps"

Any advice or links to research/comparisons would be greatly appreciated.

-Josh

Talking about DLC reps PAM 026 is maybe the best option

Talking about ceramic you could consider 441 (or better PAM 438, you will get with some money a good ceramic bracelet), PAM 292 and PAM 508 if you like Subs

Thank you ALE!

It looks as if 026k will be my best option then.
While I do like the 441 and 438 I think the glare of the single AR is too much for me.
The 292 is great but I prefer Luminor to Radiomir, and sub is not exactly my style either.

Could you confirm that this PAM026K Noob 1:1 is indeed V3?

In have already answered this question in another thread. I will repeat it here:

The watch on the catalogue is a V3.
But the idea nowadays would be to get a V4 case as complete as possible.
We are now in a transition period and we cannot know what we will actually receive.
If you ask now a V3 most likely you will receive a V4 caseset, but with some parts of V3. You would need conform it by the QC pics

Whoops, I did not see the answer until I had already posted the question.

Is there a thread that mentions how to differentiate the V4 case from the V3?

Thank you,
