Anyone know if the PAM 275

or the PAM 311

have been replicated? and if they have, do any of the trusted dealers carry it?

I have seen "surposed to be" reps of them, at shady not trusted seller sites, but don't wanna go that way.

Yes there are plenty. First I can think of is the 233

Well, I like the 233 and the 270, but the two above, just had a little bit more. And we allways want more, right :)

After closer inspection on the site selling the 275 and the 311, I can see that they are using gen pictures, so I guess it's a scam.

I think I'll go look for a 270, even though it don't have the am/pm hand.

QinetiQ - why did you pick the 233 (I see you got one on the way) over the 270?
The gen 233 don't have a rotor, like the rep, and the sundial (don't know the name of the indicator under the sec hand) is faux, so you have a tell tell sign on the dial anyway?

True,

The 233 Rep is busted immediately by the movement.

I have one that I got from Hont about a year ago. It keeps excellent time and the finish and AR still look great. I Put a nice strap on it and it looks that much better. I have a couple of buddies with the real mccoy of different models (cant remember which) but they have never noticed. If you want a PAM that looks like the original, stay away from the 233. The movement will most likely not be replicated.
