Pam557 SF Factory (updated version?)

[Apcheng]

Just saw these pictures posted on Wechat. These pictures do not belong to me. And I'm not sure if I've broken any rules for posting this (Please delete if I have). I've checked a few TD's websites regarding this Pam and it looks different from this one. Although the seller did state that it is apparently also from the SF factory. Maybe its an update to the previous one, as Ale's guide mentioned there were a few inaccuracies.

Im very new to Pams so I wouldn't be able to really say what the big differences are, but from what I see, two main differences are that the Lume seems to be better. The ones on TD's sites at the moment show that the hour/minutes hands have a different lume than the numbers. Second thing I noticed is that the movement seems more crisp ("21 jewels" seems to be more defined) as opposed to the the ones that are posted on TD sites, as well as an added jewel underneath "swiss made".

Also sorry if this is old news. Did a quick search on the 557 and there aren't many threads on this particular watch.

Its a rep dealer on Wechat that my friend suggested me to follow a while ago. He posts updates very frequently but I'd still rather stick to the TD's. I use it mainly to see if there's anything new in the rep world, so I can keep updated regularly. (yes I do have an addiction problem)

This rep of PAM 557 was released by Puretime on May 2014 and it is from SF
The movement is a P.3000 Clone2.
This is not an update version it is the same as the watch from 2014

The only improvement we could expect from this rep is a Clone4 movement (with improved jewel decoration)

NOTE: corrected info in below post due to new info from mysterio

ALE,

Actually the image on Ryan's website is not updated and APcheng's photo is obstructing the view of the movement. Here is my PAM557 QC from Ryan.

Comparing that photo to that of the Clone 3/Clone 4/Gen movement in the Guide.

From the size and color of the "jewels" (which is essentially the main difference between Clone 3 and Clone 4), as well as confirmation from Ryan (he told me it was the latest movement) I would say that this is an improved PAM557 rep with the Clone 4 movement.

 

[ALE7575]

Thanks mysterio.
Really useful info
YOU ARE RIGHT, the bar code label is covering the movement but we can see a jewel of the improved decoration of Clone3 and 4


YES this is without doubts a Clone4 movement
I will try including this info asap in PAM GUIDE

I have seen some improvements in this way lastly, not only in P.3000 Clone but in P.9000 from ZF
Nowadays, ZF is using an improved P.3000 decorated A7750, that we call ZP3000-V2.5, with improved Balance cock decoration and more accurate Balance wheel "hole", most likely in the near future all ZF P.9000 decorated movements will be V2.5 version.

Therefore it will be very difficult to keep updated the info in catalogues and in PAM GUIDE. Fortunately all moves seem improvements

Thanks again for the info

Anyway remember PAM 557 rep has wrong O-series engraved, because as far as I know the PAM 557 was introduced in 2014 Q-series. Therefore it is impossible to get a PAM 557 O-series
Please 557 owners confirm this matter

ALE

 

[Apcheng]

Yea that was the only picture of the case back the dealer had!

Anyways, hope the photos can help members decide if they are on the fence about this watch.

Grats on your new watch Mysterio!

Also the Q-series was only released in a run of 700, where the PAM557 O-series rep has a run of 2000.
