Ok, found the list of the best PAMs - now what?

Yep model number and factory such as kW noob zfac

Yes, just call a TD and tell them which model # and maker you want (e.g., "latest Noob 372"). If I can make a suggestion, I would recommend choosing a "super rep" (e.g., PAM 111) or at least a "first class rep" for your first purchase. I'd recommend that for several reasons, not the least of which is for resale if you don't love the watch. You'll have a much easier time selling a high-quality rep.

DSN's 232 is a nice piece. It might not be on the list but you won't be disappointed with it. I've had a couple come across my workbench and cant fault it. If you dig it, I'd worry less about the list and go with what's calling your name. The 232 has a 6497 in it, very reliable. That and David is a great guy to deal with.

Keep in mind, super reps are still reps. I pull super reps apart everyday to make them better, ;-)

thank you. not only can u make a suggestion, but i would really appreciate them. do you mind throwing a couple more of the "first class rep"? That would help me out a lot, my mind is going crazy from all these reps that are reviewed here. way too much information

Once I figure out how to properly buy one, I'll be going your way to see what you can do to them

I typically go for 44mm cases. For the ultra reliable, the 005 & 111 (modded of course!) have my vote. Autos would be the 088 and 531. In the larger case sizes I am partial to custom built Rolerai pieces. Honestly, if this is your first rep Pam, I'd go with something with a 6497, closed case back, in a case shape you prefer. As the need (or addiction) dictates, mod!

Go to ALE's reference and just search for the words "super rep." Then you can look at them and decide which you like best. There are quite a few from which to choose. Good luck!

Tell TD what you want, pay, wait for the watch to arrive, dance when it does. Repeat.

 

[Dochere2]

Ahh yes, the happy dance, lol
