PAM 382 Bronzo - QC Pics allowed Thread

[PAM1983]

Well, I wouldn´t never said re-alingn the bezel is an easy thing
I'm a little "fed up" with certain "KW" unconsistences found lately hbbbbt:
Anyway, if you are not in a hurry, and you still have forces and the mood needed to ask your TD to source a good one, DO IT, keep pushing.
Wish you patience and good luck !!!.

Waiting to hear back form TD. He is asking KW about CG edges.

Yeah i noticed that... I can fix the markers. but should i have to, NO ! LOL

The nicest part start now... LOL...

If you fix appropriately the CG with a mechanical device like a CLAMP the chamfered will be much easier and perfect

The 382 really is good eye candy. Can't decide if I should trade in my 364 for it or get a new one.

PAM 364 is much better than PAM 382

364 could be a better rep, but imho it lacks "something special", it's another "somehow typical black/white" style pam as many others.
(hope you all understand what I mean, no offense intended to anyone please, just my thought, I know is a matter of personal taste).

On the other hand , 382 look/beauty is unique one of a kind
I can understand everyone to have a nice 382 rep.@PAM1983 Keep fighting ! Let us know once you are in TD´s black list :balloon:
In fact my first pam reps where the unique 382 and the lovely 448, just because I like them, those were the watches I always would liked to own, and its rep level was acceptable for me.

But the pam382 has something else pretty unique about it. Must be the bronze [emoji23]

Of course it is the bronze and its patina magic

Ok so I have rejected this watch for a few obvious reasons. CG chamfers not there. The number markers being too filled in and or having paint overlap.

Now the crown guard having issues of chamfer. Plus I can't tell if the inside of CG is off compared to the case cut out. Now if KW fixes this certain watch CG there will be a gap on the case itself where the cut out would be for CG if CG was filed down correctly. If that makes sense.

Please share your thoughts. Thanks guys.

Are there ANY 382 rep out there from whichever maker, that has cg champer ?

Also, ALE, did you notice that the pearl ring on KW's seagull 382 is a bit much thicker than KW382 v1 ? Which one of it is more gen-like?

I have not made a direct comparison between KW and gen pearl, but I have prepared below Photoshop arrangement to compare GEN (at left side) and above KW watch (at right side). Made your own conclusions

I think it is really accurate
