Pam 605 ZF Factory Thoughts

[Maitiu]

Been doing a bit of research on my first Pam rep. Popular consensus is the Pam111 Noob v3/4 seems to be the most accurate rep out there. And it was going to be the one I was going to buy, that is until I saw the Pam 605 from ZF and fell in love with it. And I'm 99.9% sure that's going to be my first rep. But I haven't seen a ton of pics of the ZF version around the boards though.

Any of you owners of the ZF Pam 605 have some thoughts on this piece and some pics you'd like to share?

I'd love to know what you guys think of this rep and if this is one of the better or worse reps made. From what I have gathered, it's a relatively new rep? By new I mean, within the last 6 months. I assume you vets consider a 6 month old rep to be new still? :whistling:

I'd love to see some pics and share your thoughts on this piece. I think it's one of the better looking Pam reps out there.

The PAM605 from ZF has got the new P3000 superclone movement with a power reserve of a wopping 50+ hours ... mine has got nearly 60 hours and runs COSC-like.
I had the chance to see some gen 605 3 months ago during a GTG ... the ZF rep is very close to it, every 605 (gen or rep) will appear different in changed lights and angles. The watch can handle different straps, the stock-strap is of nice quality but additional straps will always give a different looks; works well with vintage leather in tan or brown but can also handle a croc-leather in brown or grey.

There you have it, the watch is stunning and gives you a lot of opportunities ... go get it!

Well from reading some threads here, there was a comparison between the 605 V6 and ZF. The ZF seem to have a much more accurate dial regarding the shade and sunburst, but as you said the dial will always look different in angles.
What puts me off is the SC movement (despite it's 40+ of PR) in the ZF, would find it quite hard to service if anything would ever happen to it :/ and tbh V6 has always had a better reputation than ZF. Your call !

PAM 111 Noob, either V3 or V4, is one of most famous reps but not at all the best PAM rep. Although is very good

For many reasons PAM 605 reps cannot be at the same level at this moment, and all versions will be under the PAM 111 standards.

We have not enough info to get a complete evaluation of all versions but some things are already clear
-SF versions is not accurate althuoiugh the movement is P.3000 Clone. Maybe the worst version in the wrist
-KW has batter accuracy but the dial is a bit lighter in colour and the dial engravings are very yellow. Movement is completely inaccurate, it is based in a decorated A6497-2.
-ZF seems to have accurate colours on dial, watch is overall accurate enough. The finish and appearance are good. It is fitted also with a P.3000 Clone

If I had to get one I would choose ZFac

Any gen/rep comparison for zf [MENTION=74306]Evora[/MENTION]?

 

[Thrasher]

Here it is on my 8.25 in wrist or 21 cm. Stock strap fits just barely but I have been busy and not enough time to find and order new strap.

Awesome pics! Thank you gentlemen! I can't wait for mine to show up.

@tridad , can you tell me what strap that is and where you got it from?

 

[coltsivers]

[MENTION=115102]Maitiu[/MENTION] it looks like a Landa raw denim strap.

 

[batosai]

Definitely will be contacting my TD for the ZFAC version real soon!!

 

[tridad]

Awesome pics! Thank you gentlemen! I can't wait for mine to show up.

@tridad , can you tell me what strap that is and where you got it from?

Yes, it is a Landa, not a denim one, but very close. I actually got it on a watch that I bought years ago.
Cheers!!
