It's all about what you're willing to accept for the asking price. Plus I don't see any of the major factories doing this anytime soon.

Is it just me or does the "6" on the Black Seal look a bit weird?

The hands are supposed to be PreV correct?

Good catch, I did not notice they used modern hands in this one. The lume looks lighter than the patinated almost orangey lume on the gen, which is too bad. I was too focused on the dial, which was the main point on Davidsen's build. Serifs look nice in this one (well from the photos, David's photos do not have the same quality as Puretime's). The strap is nice, copying the same leather as the gen, although the engraving on the SS buckle is a tad bigger than on the gen buckle.

Closeup pictures of the fonts on the dial for the PAM785 pair.

Looks like the serif font is evident on the top text only.

I saw a Gen set of this PAM on a Philippine watch forum being sold just in case someone is interested.
