Your comments making me think twice about pulling the trigger on Noob PAM111 current v3/v4 offering .

What’s your thoughts between the two? Splitting hairs or is there a clear winner?

I know sausage vs sandwich and closed case back vs open so not exactly apples to apples it setting those aside how they compare?

Still waiting for mine to arrive but going by the comments, it is at least on par if not slightly better than the Noob.

But ... do you really need to decide between the 2? Get both :D Base vs sub-second, sausage vs sandwich, logo vs none etc enough to justify having both

Agree. It's not like we are talking a lot of money here (and way cheaper than talking about buying two gens). Or just pick one and then buy the other, there is no right or wrong in this instance.

Apparently it's out of stock as per Chazingtime, anyone else can chime in and confirm?

I believe some of us have enough invested in reps to buy at least one or two gens from the pre-owned market. But then where’s the fun in having only one or two PAMs [emoji51]

Great idea! Never thought about it that way! Man after my own heart! haha

I can easily see that happening with this hobby! Can always have your one or two go to Gens but then have a lot of fun on the side with multiple NWBIGs

Well I have bought and sold enough PAMs to probably buy me even at least one grail PAM. But that's over the course of a few years and owning just one grail does not compare to the fun of owning several PAMs. If I did have the money I would buy one grail, but I'd still be collecting PAM reps. ;)

I ordered one from intime a few days ago and they told me it was in stock and available. I’m still waiting on the QC pics though, so we will see.

Yesterday i contacted Ryan/Intime and he confirmed that the 000 XF is in stock. I pulled the trigger, the watch is looking too good to be true. I really thought i am out of the rep game but truly i have to confirm that if this particular watch is as good as in the photos or video, it is defo NWBIG... :)

Can’t wait to see some more real life pictures once more of these begin to arrive. Wan’t to jump on it too, though I just got a 390 that I’m very happy with...

Anyway, still not sure if rep sausage dials are good enough... that is one of those tells that is hard to unsee. For me, anyway.

Just received my QC pics yesterday... they have to swap the strap as I ordered the rubber, so I don’t know how long that will take but I will post pics when it arrives.

Strap change hopefully should not take long. Which TD did you use? I know they can all source from the same factory but curious to know who you're talking to. :)

It’s intime. There was a bit of confusion during the delay as the factory changed the story on them a couple times. In stock in 2 weeks, then it will be 5 days, then another delay, then all of a sudden QC pics.

So I guess the story will change on all of the TDs shortly. :lol: Thanks for the update.
