How many of you has pre-order a PAM 111 and how long have you been waiting?

I had pre-order a PAM 111 last week and was told by TD that the waiting time is about 2-3weeks

I've just been told by MR that Noob was still on holydays for at least 2 weeks...
According to the numerous guys waiting for it, I am not sure 111N will be available back in 2 weeks.

On my side, I have chosen the one with Swiss mvt: more expensive, not sure of the Swiss genuine, no inca bloc ....... But available right now.

Cheers,
Steve

I've got one on order. Paid last week of July, so its been 6 full weeks so far. And no word as to when its coming (no QC pics either, obviously).

Patience (I guess!)

I've waited for about four weeks, and my Noob PAM111 N was bought from PureTime.

I've been waiting for my QC pics for 9 weeks! Finally decided to switch to another watch instead, guess will have to give the 111N a pass until the bulk stock comes back...

Seem like 2-3 weeks is not possible. They are taking pre-order but cannot provide a confirm date on stock arrival.

I'm not sure about Toro. But I just emailed Trevor and he told me that there will be new stocks for the PAM111 Noob by next week. Lol.

I ordered from Toro July 16th and still waiting. Hopefully I'm up to the front of the line as he told me I would definitely be in the next batch.

It is a matter of luck.
Really any replica Swan Neck is functional, and therE is a luck if you have the regulator lever seemingly pressed by the Swan Neck spring and the tip of the screw. In your case the screw is at its end and you cannot tighten it more. That is typical of Noob Swan Neck devices. No solution.
No worries about that because this doesn't affect the work of the movement.
ALE

BTW: the watch is OK
