Thanks for giving the answer, Simonix I love these dials for contrast at any angle. It seems to me that this is the instrumental value of these models. The sausage dial, in my opinion, fits perfectly with these luminors. The sandwich is more of a historical tribute that goes more with 1950 case models.

“Sorry but Noob has just inform us the Pam 005 are out of production . Can you change to other watchex ?”

So... I’ll have a decision to make...

I got mine from Puretime last october, try there.
Nevertheless the 111 it's not a bad replacement at all, although it hasn't the (for me) desirable logo.

I was told directly by a TD when I enquired by email. He said taking pre-orders for this month.

A TD has direct access to the factory. If they can't provide any more specific information, I don't think anybody else would be able to give it. Up to you if you want to get on pre-orders, those are a double-edged sword. You can get in on the first batches, and that's great, but you can also be the first...to see flaws that may be corrected in a later batch.

Fully agreed and I have no interest in pre-orders. Just passing on the info...they said they're expecting a batch from Noob this month.

Unless there is something wrong with your pictures, no you should not post them.

Hi guys,

Just a quick update!

I couldn’t pull the trigger for the PAM111 for some reason, it didn’t give me the special feelings the 005 did.

So... I decided to go a different route! Switched the order to another super rep: IWC Big Pilot 5009-16 Le Petit Prince :).

Thanks for al the interest in this thread!

That's too bad. But I understand the feeling, some watches just have that special something. Congrats on your purchase.
