PAM 424 California W/ LOGO Question

[Thrasher]

I cant find a good one all I find is $158 and $179 models they look good but must have a cheap movement.

I like it but cheap movement or am I missing something?

 

[takoxavy]

it should be the p3000 if i'm not wrong.

 

[Fiddo]

The new 448 and 449 have the P3000. Is there a newer version of the 424?

 

[Thrasher]

I cant find a high end 424....I'm looking

 

[takoxavy]

I believe the 424 super rep version is coming out soon but there isn't any in the market now

Movement is not even close aesthetically, yet Seagull's are reliable work horses, great value movements really.

If I was on the market for a 424, I would buy this. Budget-friendly to boot, look no further: send an inquiry to your dealer of choice.

EDIT: ok, DW is a POS. And the dial might need a relume.

 

[kilowattore]

I would stick with the 448

There is no quality reps of this watch at this moment
Reps in the market as you say are fitted with cheap inaccurate automatic movements (instead of manually) and completely wrong date window and date wheel. I have not even considered them in PAM GUIDE.

Nowadays, since makers have already developed a very good PAM 448 with very good case, and we have a P.3000 Clone2, I hope we could see some good reps of PAM 424

It is just needed a P.3000 Clone2 with date function like gen.

There is also a lot of pressure to get a correct Radiomir 1940 PAM 514, therefore we could expect makers are studying this matter carefully

Then, NO good reps at this moment but good expectations and hopes to have them in the future

Now, you can go to PAM 448

The 424 also has a domed thick ass sapphire crystal that's sure gonna cause lots of problems for rep makers...

Yes, it is no easy but makers have already developed the domed sapphire crystal of Blancpain Fifty Fathoms which is almost the same. Therefore, NO worries about that

Would buy 424 right away if it came out in 448 rep class.

 

[Carrera906]

I think Panerai have removed the date function from the 424 from this year, which would make it easier to rep more quickly, as the current clone movement can be used. Doesn't solve domed sapphire crystal, of course!

 

[rhreplica]

Is this rumoured to be in the pipeline? I'd consider holding off on a 448 if a 424 is currently being worked on.

 

[Thrasher]

Thank You all, possible great news in the future!

Just saw this on pure time webby. Looks like it's the same grade as the current

[ALE7575]

This is the way to go, just released with Clone3 P.3000 (jewels decoration improved) the rest with the same quality as PAM 448

The only issue:
O-series from 2012 were released with Date window @3, but Officine PANERAI changed to without date window in Q-series
rep has no Date window but it is marked O-series

Damn I just found it and I come over here to tell you all and ya beat me to it!!!!!!

 

[WalkerDH]

Looking forward to see 448 and 449 with the New Clone3 movement!

 

[Sain]

So torn between the new 424 and 448.

 

[morninglory]

And welcome the 425 into the equation - AHHHH!

PAM424 on its way to me
