Pam 359 QC Pics

[hidefguy]

Hello all so I got my QC Pics from Puretime and I'm torn, there are a bunch of faults on the case back and CG lever not flush. But the watch accuracy is amazing. First I purchased the V3 with updated date wheel with new 7750 28800 movement but the pics tell a different story. Also I've been doing my due diligence and reading all I can about this watch and to me it looks like a V2 because of the spacing but with updated date wheel? Please advise guys. thanks.

not 28800 but very accurate

Looks like the spacing on V2

Crown Guard Lever not flush

Poor engraving

I'm sorry are QC pics not allowed? I read the forum rules and didn't see anything regarding posting of QC pics. can you please provide me with links? thanks.

Yes, that crown guard lever would bother me. Don't know what the other guy is talking about.

Thanks. If the crown guard lever was flush I would most likely accept, since I don't care about the back... well I do but not so much, since I probably would never show it to anyone anyways. I have a Gen Rolex GMT II since 2004 and no one ever asked if it was fake or asked to take a look just compliments.

Yeah. The lever really a spot on.

Think the case back is not so bad as you will be wearing it on your wrist.

I dont see any fault on the caseback. The engraving looks fine to me. And CG and its lever is flushed as per gen if u look closely again. Datewheel looks fine too, same as my Pam 359 v4 from Josh.

I would have accept and proceed with shipping.

Sorry i think i wont accept this rep due to the wrong beat rate in QC pic. A7750 movement should has 28800 beat rate.

i suppose It's better to request for new QC pics on the movement beat rate.

my QC pic from Josh on the movement beat rate. Correct 28800 beat rate.

If you paid for a 28800 beat movement PAM, then a 21600 bps QC pic should be a cause for concern, any other detail aside. And yes, posting QC pics without doing your own research first is normally frowned upon. Here is the link for your reference.

Thanks for all the comments fellas and mysterio thank you for this link. Although it's not easy to find, trust me I did do a search and I did read the forum rules. I'm a member of a number different watch sites, i'm sure many of you are also and one of those sites specifically said in it's rules that you couldn't post QC pictures. So I posted here instead. Anyways in Ale's post it says:

Purpose of QC pic:

1) ensuring that you are getting the right watch
2) identifying any serious flaws in the item

You may post a QC pic if you have a specific question about a possible flaw that you have found, and want input on how common or acceptable it is. However, the purpose of QC pics, and especially posting it on the open forum, is not: "Dealer X has sent me this QC pic, what do you think?"


This is the whole reason for posting this, I wanted the members of this forum input/recommendations, because this watch had too many flaws in my eyes.

I'm not sure what you're saying here, good or bad?

True.

are you sure the lever is flushed? here is a comparison with Gen

here are the obvious flaws the 3000 doesn't look finished. The ERAI on PANERAI on the movement is faint.
