PAM 1312 Version confusion

I see your point. The text isn´t clear white but a bit beige looking. But on yours the Text and the numbers are not same color tone. Number more beige, Text more yellow.
Mine (also ZF) is rather same color tone.

And a video of the Gen also like that

Some more closer ups

It's not yellowish as wernermatthysen imagines, it is just off white and more on the beige color as freefallrlc 's watch and the same as what I have seen on other pictures.

Thanks for the feedback friends. I think I got a dud, because mine is in-your-face yellow, and I just couldn't live with it. I have sent it back to my guy in China, he is sending a 389 as replacement. I also bought a 505, I am hopeful they will both be nice.

The color is really a bit off and too different from the numbers. Maybe they used a wrong dial from differnt model or the color mix was wrong in this supply. All other 1312 I saw were fine.
No reorder but changing to differnt watch? The Sub is much larger and I like the thinner 1312 case fpr everyday use

I'm facing the same problem , i like the v6f but only if they have the right thickness

on PT website, there is also a video on the v6f page and on the video, it's have the right shape too !
So i think V6F has updated the case of the 1312 ...

i recalled that there were 2 versions released by v6f, first with the wrong shape (P900x series) case set . shortly after release by ZF, v6f released their v2

 

[freefallrlc]

Back then the V6F seemed more accurate in a lot of things. lungs shape and the holes, crownguard lever and the text on Crownguard and the crown itself looked more closer to gen than the ZF. But everyone had the ZF only and there was the confusion about the wrong case size. Would be interesting see a comparison Gen/ZF/V6F
I only have the ZF


Same with the 1305. The thickness of the crown is totally wrong on the ZF. But noone seems to care and the is no other version.

The gen has slightly yellow text on the dial and date wheel. It does not match the lume color exactly.

What do you guys think of this Color on the date wheel. It’s a different tone to the numbers and text. It has a slight pink in it. I have read Gen sometimes also have a different Color or misaligned dates too but just wondering if this happens on all/lots of reps or if mine is unique.

It’s a bit hard to photograph and so the QC photos may have shown this but they look like the date wheel is the same color so I didn’t detect it. It wasn’t really until I got to some double digits that it became more noticeable.
