PAM 682 - 42mm! Great Timepiece!

[topgun_88]

Hello Everyone!
I'm new to the Pam Family but i was in Florence, before the Corona Virus began, and i truly felt in love with this model showed in The hystorical shop in front Santa Maria Novella Church.
Some of you guys could share info about it? Which is the best rep factory that produces it? Is it worth the value to buy it now or to wait something better in next months (if it will ever come)!
Thank you so much

"What's the best PAM?"

Not so much choice for this model apart from ZF? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Good afternoon.
The best (or only, if I'm not mistaken) release was XF. You need to check with TD about availability, I’m not sure that they are being sold new, but in any case, there is also the opportunity to buy m2m. Also, a new similar titanium model 692, as far as I know, should be available now.

And yes, a couple of links to reviews:

Actually I've seen on a TD shop it is available also an XF V2 P9010 Rep.
I was wondering if VSF will take care of this model.
He is producing the 692 PAM but i would like to wear the 42mm version and that's why i'm interested in the 682 Rep!

Hi!! we posted at the same time so you gave all the answers. Do you know if also VSF are planning the smaller 682 version?

XF was part of VSF, so you can relate to this so that it was one factory, and it is unlikely that with the presence of many new 42mm models., They will reprint old ones. Perhaps you should consider the 683 with a ceramic insert. She also has no showcase on caseback, which is good.

Thanks for the info i did't know about VSF and XF.
I really like the "contrast" beetween dial and bezel. I don't really like the ceramic 683. I have seen it ever in the Florence Shop next to the 682 and in my opinion it doesn't pop the watch at all.
I hope VSF will take care of an upgraded 682. Thank you

You are welcome! However, you can try to find 682 in the secondary market.

I can see that VSF released the PAM1055. I also love the 682 so might as well buy the 1055 for its bezel and switch the ceramic over

ahaha that is good idea!! but i’m not so interested about owning similar models!!

I believe they have upgraded the 682 to the 973. I’ve been waiting for a rep of the newer model for a while now. Hopefully we get it!

You can always flip it
