Looks good to me too. Yes it's real ceramic the case and the bracelet, in ALE guide he said is the most beautiful ceramic watch you can buy, so I pull the trigger!

Yes it is really good rep and nice watch
The ceramic caseset is awesome
If you buy a PAM 438 and buy a leather strap you can get a PAM 441 (with black movement, of course)

question might already have been asked but to lazy to read 25 pages....
how to read the GMT? Or you should just need to have some knowleges of geography to know if it's AM or PM...???

Thank you King of PAM, thank you for everything you've done in this forum. You're guide really let people like me understand and decide the best looking watch. Thank you very much.
By the way, I've already ordered a black PVD buckle and an "Asso" Brown calf leather strap (exactly the same sold for the PAM441), as you suggested a few posts ago.
Sorry for my english, I hope you understand.
Right, got to remind about my knowledges of Geography, no direct help from the watch ;-)
thx

To the guys who just purchased this rep, how's your lume? Any estimates on how long it lasts? Mine lasts about 10mins (used a UV flashlight for 2mins to charge lume)
shouldn't the screws be black? that's how they are on the Gen right??

Yes, the screws should be black. Havent seen a rep with black screws though.
GEN in vid:
Perhaps there's a way to mod the screws? Somekind of DIY coating?

A noob question regarding one of my recieved QC pics. Please bare with me. 
I would assume the photo illustrates something about testing it for water resistance? But what can I expect from this (positive) test result regarding water resistance?

anyone else have trouble unscrewing the lug bars?? one unscrews...but looking like I'll need pliers to fully extract it and the other one just will not turn. I don't want to turn too hard, in case I strip the screw. Any input or advice would be awesome...thanks guys!!!
also has anyone painted their screws black to match OEM?

I spray painted the screw ends with satin black auto trim paint. Looks perfect.

Hi sorry for a late answer. I just received the watch and the lume last at least 40minutes (I felt asleep) using the iphone 6 flashlight for 5minutes. The room was totally dark and obviously after 15minutes the lume wasn't so bright but I could read time and seconds after 40minutes.
yeah, lume isn't superlume...but it's decent enough. at some point I'd like to have it re-lumed!
