Hi,

I read the Pam guide but I don't find any information on the pam292 v6f from KW factory.

This version is better than the noob ?

I am searching for a non Pig version and a super rep.

thx for your help.

Hi friend

KW PAM 292 is not yet in the PAM GUIDE because is pending introduction. A lot of reps to be included this year !!

Noob PAM 292 was really good but it is not available because Noob is no longer making it

KW PAM 292 is the most similar in the market so far. The main difference would be the crown, ceramic in Noob (really fragile) ansd DLCd in KW (more resistant and few noticeable).

KW PAM 292 O-series without pig is really good and a Super rep at similar level to Noob

KW PAM 292 with pig is wrongly marked O-series instead of J-series, it is not recommendable.

Good luck

Just picked up this 292vO non pig on a m2m sale. V nice...case where arcs meet are a bit too pointed as ALE has pointed out in his guide. Other than that love it.

If I wanted the PIG dial, would the H-Fac version be the best to go for? does it have a ceramic crown ?

If you want the Pig, it seems the noob is the best according to the guide Pam

Watch is really nice, if you can ignore the slightly squared edge corner of the rep (not noticeable irl but it looks like it was fixed on the picture above) and also this:

Nevertheless, a really nice rep and the dial seems spot on.

Yes I know, but its not available anymore. And noob isn't planning on making any more.

Not been able to find a definite answer if the h-fac has a ceramic crown or not.

I think it has been discussed before its a dlc-ed and some owners have mentioned that the difference is not really noticeable irl.

Dial print imho is better than Noob, very close to the gen

Not the crown ale but the case but again, picture by member shows that I was wrong. They have not fixed the case's edge.

Dial print is far better than Noob. However the non-ceramic crown kind of drags this piece down just as 613 too. Other than that great / genlike feel rep!

Sorry kamp, but I actually have not yet understood what's the real matter. Maybe a translation problem

It seems that shaper edge is not fixed OK?

BUT does KW fix the polished of the crown rim ??

What is the origin of the pics you have published ?

Sorry for the troubles

Maybe, we could do a little summary as follows:

Dial : better KW
Case an crown : better Noob
Caseback and crystal: equivalent
Finish and gen-like appearance : equivalent (or maybe better KW)

KW and Noob: We could say we have two Super reps at the same level

H maker, although super rep too, would be in another level
