PAM 687 - ZF vs SF

Hi all,

Was curious about folks thoughts on this - I've seen a bunch of old threads here about the SF version, and people raving about it, but I also noticed that the crystal on that one is sapphire (where gen is plexi.) The ZF version comes with plexi, but the dial doesn't look as accurate color-wise as the SF version (too light a color)

Has anyone actually bought the ZF version and can comment on the dial not in flat TD lighting photos?

Here's a few shots of my ZF 687 for your reference.
I'm fine with it. No opinion with gen comparison, since only tried the gen black dial version (685) in AD.

I am about to order a pam687 but I am really confused regarding the two versions available: updated ZF or SF. SF is a little more expensive than ZF but I cannot understand why. Could anyone help? Which one is closer to the gen as far as the dial colour is concerned?

Answered your question in your other thread.

Why does the ZF version say it has plexi glass like the gen. The gen has sapphire. So does the SF version.

Thanks. Realized my mistake after. I assume the window on the back is still sapphire (that was the spec I was mistaken with). Either way i'll go eith ZF. The band looks way better too. Anyone know where to get spare plexi?

Anyone got some wrist shots of this watch on a 6.5inch wrist? Would it be huge? I'm more scared of this one due to the wire lugs. Sometimes that contributes to the watch looking larger.

Guys, another kind of question - where did you bought it - I'm looking in on some TDs and i cannot find and it looks cool, could you provide some link or td name that had it?

Yep, I sold mine a couple months ago and have regretted it.
