Hi PAM’s fans

I like really this watch: contrasted dial, contrast polishing bezel-brushed case …

http://puretimewatch.com/product/pam162f-daylight-a7753-ultimate-edition/

I have seen it is very sold by the QC pics from RM and other dealers. But I can’t find any review or opinions about quality and accuracy of this rep.
Does someone get information about it?
Thoughts?
Opinions?

Hi, I can't tell you about this one but I have a 196 Daylaight that is similar in construction appart from the different dial. These models are made by the Noob factory and are of very high quality. Case construction and polish finish on the bezel is nice, good sapphire crystal with a light purple AR coating on the inside. The movement also is the A7753 which has no modification for the date change via button on the case instead crown, it's reliable.
I think that you won't regret the purchase. Ask before ordering because some Daylights are currently out of stock, I have asked several trusted dealers for the 236 and it's not available at the moment, maybe they still could have the 162.

Cheers !!

I think that the colors of the subdials are a little off... I read something along those lines when it was released....

Try King she seems to be able to get things. As for the subdials I don't think the photos do a great job on them. There are the odd 162's on ebay - think watchUseek tends tpo get them but they are quite rare. I think the contrast is great for chrono. Noone will know its a good looking watch

I love my 2 7753 daylights - both very reliable and very sharp watches... zero complaints whatsoever... wearing my 250 today... My personal preference led me to prefer the solid color white and black dials... but you should find a solidly constructed watch if its similar to the other newer daylights...

This is not a Daylight. It is a re release of the Daylight I believe.

Sorry, it's pre Daylight. BEFORE the film. Very rare Gen and from I can tell is a very good replica.

Here is straight on picture of the Gen for comp

If the bezel engravings are the deep ones, this looks good.

Thanks frigpig
The deep engraving dont's seems a very serious problem the quality in the rep seems good.
But the colour of sub-dials is lighter in the rep as I was affraid (maybe the difference is not so big as noticed in the pics due to different lighting angles)
Thanks for your cooperation.

OMG! I put this thread a year ago.
Nowadays, I'm going to consult the PAM REVIEW-GUIDE... LOL

From the other pictures I've seen the subdial colors are near perfect. It's just the lighting in the Puretime photoshoot.
